+Special thanks is due to [Mark Kollasch](https://mastodon.technology/@fool) for his insight into the n-pass engine structure and for overall excellent architecture feedback. Many of the ideas in this project were given to me by him.
+
+Thanks to Seiji Tanaka for writing a state machine system with me many years ago and sending me on a long journey of thinking about game architecture.
+
+Thanks to Mitch Gerrard for doing a bunch of graph theory problems with me.
+
+Thanks to the Glitch City LA community for keeping me alive all these years of making games.
+
+Thanks also to the creators and maintainers of LÖVE, a wonderful tool which awakened me to the potential joys of game programming.
+
+My name is Evan Hemsley, and I am a game programmer and digital artist. I hope you make some great projects with Encompass! And if you do, please tell me about them!
