Matt Saunders 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
In the summer of 2008, Matt released a small print run of Mow 'Em Down: Walker Mowers Edition at an event in Fort Collins, Colorado to commemorate the production of the 100,000 Walker Mower. Some copies of the game are still available for purchase. See links above.
Matt is married to Sheila and has two kids who enjoy playing games. He is a Student Ministry Director at Indian Creek Community Church in Olathe, Kansas. In his infrequent spare time between work and spending time with his young family, Matt enjoys playing games with friends, playing disc golf and listening to board game related Podcasts. In the spring of 2011, Matt was featured in the Father Geek Spotlight on www.fathergeek.com.
