Former LucasArts composer Jesse Harlin took to Imgur to post a tribute to developer LucasArts. He provided the touching words while Joel Aron did the black and white photographs of former members of the studio’s staff.
“We lived our successes together, too, whether journeying in groups to foreign weddings or whole-heartedly supporting our colleagues who lost weight, fought off illnesses, transitioned genders, or simply followed passions like stand-up comedy, triathlons, art shows, or their bands,” wrote Harlin. “The people who lived their lives making games for LucasArts did so because they loved to make games for LucasArts and its fans. In large part this was because most of us were fans before we worked there.”
“Ask the employees to recall George Lucas’ gaming company and they’ll tell you about the time then-President Jim Ward rapped in front of all of Lucasfilm, or the Winter our offices were infested with mice, or the semi-ceremonial send-off each departing employee had at the local bar, the Final Final. Rest in peace, LucasArts. And thank you for the memories,” he concluded.
