Looks like they got married in 1997

If indeed it's "Scott Elson Corley".

The latter link is referring to different people.

Ah, thanks for pointing that out, you're right.

Deleted the false divorce link ;)

This feels so medieval, the way the announcement is written.

The article says High Voltage Software, which is correct.

I hope someone passes this post to him.

A guy I know proposed to his wife in the end credits of summoner. They’re still happily married afaik.

The heart-warming gem:

> I sent a note about these Easter eggs to Scott Corley [the game's developer]. He said that he had recently pulled out the game to show the marriage proposal to his son. But he’d forgotten the code and couldn’t make it work! He and Melissa did indeed live happily ever after.
