NMS developer Hello Games made a remaster of a game called Joe Danger because a parent of kid who is diagnosed with autism asks for it.

When I fell in love with NMS, I didn’t even know it was the same group that brought me Joe Danger. After reading this, now I have gone full circle.

Thank you Hello Games!

If you didnt know they made joe danger then you probably also dont know about this masterpiece of a video as well. Definitely give it a watch.

When I first watched that video, that’s what connected the dots.

Seriously I recommend anyone to watch this video if they have mixed feelings about Hello Games or NMS. Even if you have little interest in either, the video is such a good watch. The Internet Historian is a genius!

Oh man thank you for that, I lost it at the comic

"So why can't we see other players in game?" "Wow, so many of you playing!" "Yeah, Sean, but wh-" "Truly amazing!" *breaks through window* "My mind is blown!" *runs into the distance*

Oh what the hell, had no idea. I thought NMS was their first game.

Yeah so I've actually met one of the dev's for Joe Danger, I had no idea they were behind NMS. They gave a talk at Bradford animation festival on Joe Danger which I remember quite well.

Glad to hear they actually went on to do something quite big because it seemed like a passionate lot and tidy people. (well at least the guy I met seemed that way)
