National Spork was founded by Tod Powers to both advance the state of spork technology and promote the welfare of people across the world through the increased use of sporks. That project fizzled out rather quickly, so he switched to making elaborate, artsy video games — an endeavor that is known to be incredibly easy, not at all stressful, and a real quick way to make a buck.
