Markus Persson

Markus Alexej Persson (born 1 June 1979), also known as Notch or xNotch, is a Swedish video game programmer and designer who founded the video game company Mojang alongside Carl Manneh and Jakob Porser in late 2010.

Persson's principal venture for founding Mojang was Minecraft, a first-person sandbox video game that has gained popularity and support since its tech demo in 2009. Since the release of Minecraft, Persson has gained significant notability within the video game industry, having won multiple awards and establishing relations with the industry's figureheads. Persson retained his position as the lead designer of Minecraft until the game's official launch in 2011, after which he transferred creative authority to Jens Bergensten. In November 2014, he left Mojang after its acquisition by Microsoft.

Notch

Tonight
We will dance
As we encircle the subject
I'll run away From your lock and key
You cannot change me
No regrets
This is it
No regrets
Get off my fucking chest
I numb myself into a beautiful black
Crushing aspirins kills my heart attack
I expect grace about your waist
I won't settle for less
I'm married to misery
I'll only disappoint you
I'm telling you
