Florian Wolf has lived in the Bergisches Land region of Germany for 35 years. The announcement reads: "His love for video games began at a young age - his first Atari joystick flew across the living room when he was only three years old (and there’s video proof!). From that moment on, his dream was clear: to become a 'game inventor'. After countless mods, game jams, and prototypes, he gained the experience needed to bring his passion project, Pocket Wheels, to life."
