John Walker
Co-founder
John was one of the four co-founders of Rock Paper Shotgun, together with Kieron Gillen, Jim Rossignol and Alec Meer. He wrote for the site between 2007-2019, and covered everything from indie puzzle games to consumer rights, and so much more. He might have also had something to do with the birth of Horace, the unfathomable endless bear, but honestly, who can say? These days, he continues to write about indie games at his own site, Buried Treasure.
