Due to the popularity of Cecco's video games he was asked to write a monthly diary for CRASH magazine, the first installment being 15 April 1988. The diary documented the development of Stormlord.

He first started programming on a ZX81 and his first release was Cop-Out, published by Mikro-Gen in 1986.
