It all began on a hot summer day, Aug 25, 1993. Steven Andrews was working as an Arcade technician. He dreamed of making his own games one day, as he always did, and decided to make a few sketches of Characters he would use if he were to do so. Most of the characters were animals such as Rabbits, beavers, and Ferrets. He also drew things he loved from his childhood, like Santa, and Wile E. Coyote. None of them he liked until he drew something that would change his life forever. A Jack-o'-lantern, in a green turtle neck and brown overalls. He named it JackO' (although his sister, Susan Andrews convinced him to name it Jackie later) He showed it to his friends and family, they all loved it. He decided to pitch the idea of a 3D platformer about a pumpkin trying to collect as much candy as he can before night falls. They denied it, but that wouldn't stop him.
