Aaron Houts

Hi Simmers, after nearly 12 years working on The Sims I’ve decided to set off on a new adventure. Being at Maxis has been a highlight of my life and it wouldn’t have been possible without such passionate and creative players. A farewell 🧵

@Ismiisni Thank you!

@SimGuruHouts Im late,bt really, thank you for the time, the love you put into sims and presented it to us! Wish you a happy and flowery path on your next career 💐

@HumanForScale Yeah, that was a golden era! Thanks, Emory!

@SimGuruHouts Happy to see many of your highlights are features we worked on together. I have fond memories of discussing golden pet poop together in your cube💩 Best of luck on your next adventure!

@sidebrighttheon No, it doesn't take away the joy of the game. Mostly it takes away the time to play (because I'm too busy making it)! I feel very fortunate to have worked on a game/project I believe in.

@MilutinMujovic I loved working on the supernatural packs and StrangerVille! Glad you enjoyed them!

@SimGuruHouts So you worked on my favorite world in game and my favorite packs (I play TS only for supernatural aspect). I'm sad that you're leaving us, but I hope you find happiness elsewhere. Also, did you work on something hairy, wolfy, or full-moony by any chance that still isn't released?

@MichelleKJ32 Thanks for being a player for so long!

@SimGuruHouts Good luck. Thank you for everything .❤️ I have played The sims since I was 16 in 2001

@SimGuruHouts Strangerville was my first pack as an official gamechanger and I'll never forget the Twitter buzz surrounding it, it was amazing. Thank you for your hard work and passion, we will all miss you so much!

@KittyKittyGamin Haha! Funny thing is that while I may know a lot about the game from a dev side, I think I'd pale in comparison to the great things the community does!

@SimGuruHouts Time to become a Simmer on Youtube.
