Matt Saunders

Matt Saunders is a Student Ministries Director at Indian Creek Community Church in Olathe, Kansas. He is the designer and artist of Mow 'Em Down: Walker Mowers Edition which he began designing in 2004. Matt's inspiration for designing games came from his wife's cousin, Marc, who as a history teacher, used game designing to help teach units in the classroom. After playing one of Marc's games, Matt decided to try designing a game with a landscaping theme, which is in his roots, growing up in a family that manufactures a riding lawn mower. http://www.walkermowers.com

Matt will be releasing a small print run of Mow 'Em Down: Walker Mowers Edition at an event on August 1 & 2, 2008 in Fort Collins, Colorado to commemorate the production of the 100,000 Walker Mower. Depending upon the success of sales at this event, Matt may pursue additional print runs or even publication.

In his infrequet spare time between work and spending time with his young family, Matt enjoys playing games with friends and family and listening to board game related PodCasts. Other game ideas are kicking around in his head, which may come to fruition after "Mow 'Em Down" is completed.
