Known as the Father of the 1992 classic, Sensible Soccer, Jon Hare is a game designer who has enjoyed a career spanning nearly 40 years within the games industry. Currently the CEO of Tower Studios, Jon Hare has been hard at work on Sociable Soccer 24, an iterative football game that features FIFPRO licensed players and which also aims to bring the same sense of fast-paced, arcade-style gameplay that Sensible Soccer was renowned for.

Amongst other things, he also talks about some of the positives and negatives that he's seen and experienced during his time within the games industry, and how these have impacted games development.
