Two-Sixteen Podcast – Remembering Cassidy (Rerelease)

In this rerelease, we’re revisiting my conversation with Cassidy, a quiet but incredibly dedicated member of the ALTTP Randomizer community. Cassidy preferred working behind the scenes, helping shape the game’s development with thought, care, and a genuine love for the project. He had great taste in music and a sharp mind for problem-solving.

If you knew him, I hope this brings back good memories. If you didn’t, this is a small window into the kind of person he was and the love he had for this community.

Rest in peace my friend.
