As joint entrepreneurs for 24 years, Michael and his long-term business partner Christian Lohr founded the independent PC and console games studio ROCKFISH Games in Hamburg in early 2014. With their former team behind the critically acclaimed parts 1 and 2 of the Galaxy on Fire series on board, they had a surprise hit with EVERSPACE, a fast-paced 3D space shooter for PC and console, combining AAA-style visuals with roguelike gameplay elements and innovative storytelling. Prior to that, Michael had been spearheading 3D mobile gaming for almost a decade as CEO & Co-Founder of FISHLABS Entertainment.
