About Dave Gilbert:

Dave Gilbert has been interested in adventure games ever since 1986, when his mother made the mistake of buying him a copy of Infocom's Wishbringer. Fifteen years later, he took his first dip into game creation in when he discovered the Reality on the Norm Project and wrote his first short game. Since then, he has authored over six successful freeware games, including 2004's award-winning Two of a Kind.

In 2006 he turned his hobby into a fulltime career when he founded Wadjet Eye Games and published his first commercial title, The Shivah. 

About the Wadjet Eye:

In ancient Egypt, the Wadjet Eye symbolized the left eye of Horus, and represents healing, protection, strength, and the act of "making whole."  Dave Gilbert chose this to be the symbol of his company because he thinks they are cool-looking, but failed to consider how hard the word is to pronounce (it's "wah-jet").
