Randy Marr

News Editor, ZeldaUniverse.net | Freelancer News and Guides Writer for Destructoid

United States

I'm an Austin, TX based writer with almost a decade of experience working for technology companies like Blizzard Entertainment and Facebook. Having several technical support rolls has helped me hone my ability to communicate complex technical jargon as heavily or lightly as needed so that my readers can get what they want from the articles they read.

I've also studied to be a journalist with a minor in creative writing. Putting words to use is a long time passion of mine, and I continue to work on doing just that to this day. Right now I'm a News Editor at ZeldaUniverse.net and I do freelance work for Destructoid. I write news and guides, specializing in SEO and creating unique pieces.

In my spare time I work on designing table top board and card games. I'm also learning how to program LUA. Catch me on Bluesky! https://bsky.app/profile/randymarr.bsky.social

What was your first video game memory? Was someone else a part of that memory? Was there a specific game? For Michael, my partner, it was playing Link's Awakening with his mother on their Game Boy. They weren't a well-off family growing up in a remote part of Colorado, so the Game Boy was a luxury item for them.
