Johnny Castaway Screen Saver Home page
A round 1992, Shawn Bird was working for Sierra and was asked to design a character that was "weathered but likable" for a new screen saver to be called Johnny Castaway. Shawn has written to say: Johnny was created by a small group of guys headed up by Jeff Tunnell. Jeff started Dynamix and spun off a division called JTP (Jeff Tunnell Productions) and we did JC.
