The content of this page covers a real-world subject, not inside Slime Rancher.

“	Nick Popovich is a game designer and co-founder of Monomi Park. Previously, he spent many years at Three Rings Design where he created and led development for the award-winning Spiral Knights.

Nick was last seen roaming the dusty hills of the Far, Far Range, about a thousand light years away.	”
