I, Patrick McCarron, am an iOS and Mac app / game developer from Chicago. I developed one of the first iPhone games back in 2007 and haven't stopped since. Check out my app Portfolio for more info on the projects I've worked on.

I'm also an avid video game enthusiast who has been writing FAQs, websites and guides for video games since the 90s. I currently run the longest running Mortal Kombat fan site: The Realm of Mortal Kombat (TRMK) in my spare time.

Palette Swap Ninja’s fantastic new parody/cover of the Red Hot Chili Peppers Song “Snow ((Hey Oh))” with a Halo theme to it, entitled “HALO ((ALL I PLAY-OH))”.

Part of the problem was that “Snow ((Hey Oh))” is far more complicated than it sounds. I knew John Frusciante was a great guitarist, but I didn’t think he’d be quite so impossible to rip off. There was some trickery in getting the guitar part to sound anything like the record; I ultimately recorded it at half-speed. We do what we must.
