Intrinsic Algorithm LLC

Based in tech-heavy Omaha, NE, Intrinsic Algorithm L.L.C was founded in December 2001. President and Lead Designer, Dave Mark has been programming since 1985 when he was in high school. Much to his teacher's dismay, he wrote his first text adventure on the school's DEC PDP-1144 minicomputer.

After a brief detour in the music business as a composer, arranger, and recording engineer, he re-entered the technology arena in 1995. He worked in a variety of capacities including network design and rollout, web design and nation- and world-wide email systems, and before turning to business database application design and programming for Fortune 500 companies.

An avid game player since 1984 and a statistics addict for 30.142857 years (as of this writing), Dave has been analyzing and dissecting games for many years. No longer content to sit idly by and say "I wish they would have done it this way!", Dave decided that it was time to take his passion for playing, his skill with programming, and his creativity for design and put them together into one package. The result is the driving force behind Intrinsic Algorithm.
