<p><b>New page</b></p><div>When thinking of [[Star Control II]]'s design and fiction, [[Paul Reiche III]] always comes in mind. However, '''Greg Johnson''', the lead designer of StarFlight, also did an amount of work comparable to Paul's.<br />
<br />
Indeed, Paul himself has openly credited him (and his game) in the 2007 [[IRC chats with Toys For Bob|IRC chat]].{{ref|1}} Johnson did most of the [[Orz]], [[Arilou]] and [[Pkunk]] dialogue.{{ref|2}}<br />
<br />
Other contributions include:<br />
*The [[Utwig]], [[Pkunk]] and [[Orz]] voices (for the 3DO version) &mdash; generally positively received by fans, though the Orz voice has been openly criticized (and a significant percentage of fans don't like the Utwig voice{{ref|3}})<br />
*Art and animation (he did the a considerable amount of starship artwork){{ref|4}}<br />
<br />
He also used to play [[Super Melee]] along with Paul and Toby Schadt.<br />
