Jordan Mechner, designer of Prince of Persia and Karateka, recently published a 1985 fan letter from Loot Drop CEO and co-founder John Romero. Mechner tweets:

John still has Jordan’s reply in storage somewhere.

John and Jordan will present together (Along with Epic’s Tim Sweeney, Mojang’s Markus “Notch” Persson, Semi Secret’s Adam Saltsman and UC Santa Cruz’ Jane Pinckard) at GDC 2012 at Back to the Garage: The Return of Indie Development (From Those Who Were There and Some Who’ve Just Arrived).
