    Did you know new videogames are still being created for the NES? That's right, the almost 4 decade old videogame console is still chuggin'! While traveling around the country with his indie rock band, Spaceraft, Jordan and his bandmates spent their free time playing old NES favorites like Tecmo Bowl and Excitebike. He grew to appreciate the artistry and design of those classic Nintendo games and, being a musician, he became infatuated with their soundtracks.

    After doing a little research he discovered the world of NES game design was alive and well. He started composing music for developers, and then some design, and then some programming and eventually, created his very own game, Spaceraft. Named after his band, the game stars himself and his bandmates as they travel around Milwaukee looking for their stolen mastertapes. It's a work of art brimming with vibrancy, uniqueness, and lots of familiar Milwaukee establishments.
