Let's make this birthday one to remember.

60 years old (Born on June 04, 1964)

Happy Birthday, Jordan Mechner! May your day be filled with more excitement than a Prince of Persia level—minus the spikes and bottomless pits. Your creativity has given us timeless adventures, proving that even pixelated princes can age gracefully.

From crafting legendary video games to captivating documentaries like "Chavez Ravine: A Los Angeles Story," you've shown storytelling mastery across mediums. While narrowly missing an Oscar nod might feel tougher than escaping palace guards, remember you're already royalty in our hearts (and gaming consoles). Here's wishing you another year full of epic leaps forward—and fewer accidental falls into spike traps!
