Spade_Cooley 9,001 Posted January 10 Jennell Jaquays reported dead on her GoFundMe aged 67. Had a very lengthy career in gaming, from being behind the first conversion of Donkey Kong for a home console (Colecovision) in 1982, through to being a level designer on various Dooms and Quakes over the years and an art director for Age of Empires. Also did some stuff involving Dungeons and Dragons but I have no idea what any of that is. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
