Writing to the Steam Community when announcing his illness, Mike said: “Anyone that knows me, understands that I have the deepest love for both the people at Volition and our community.

I hope I was able to shine a light on how we make games and who we are as both developers and people, and maybe make everyone's day just a little bit brighter in some small way.” Mike, Volition loves you too, our hearts are broken and we will miss you every day.

Our thoughts go out to his family and we ask everyone to respect their privacy at this difficult time.
