Twintris and Röyksopp

category: offtopic [glöplog]
 
I've come across several random comments online (including in releases on Pouet) that claim that the Svein Berge who made the old Amiga game Twintris is the same Svein Berge who is in the band Röyksopp. Intrigued, I decided to dig deeper, and I'm not sure the claims holds up. According to an interview in RAW #1, the guy who made Twintris went to university in 1991. The guy in Röyksopp was born in 1976, and would be 15 years old at the time. Am I missing something, or is it just a mix-up of two people with the same name?

i never knew Royksopp had that many Sveins in their group!
So the amazing fact is now debunked. What a sad day ;( We can still have an amazing fact that the coder of Twintris has THE SAME NAME as a member of the famous norwegian duo Royksopp though. Works for me.

Anyway I remember the music for Twintris was very nice and in the RAW#1 interview it is attributed to Walkman!
