But when the couple put on a game in May, it turned out to be more than just a source of entertainment. Austin spent 100 hours making a Super Mario Brothers-style game to propose to his love.

Each level was loosely based on memorable moments in their relationship - from a beer festival to their first date to a road trip, and many more.

Austin says that it took Lauren 25 minutes to get through the game. At the final level she was greeted with a special song that his grandfather proposed to his grandmother.

The character in the game, which was based on Lauren, then walked off screen and a message read: “It’s Dangerous to Go Alone! Take This!”

Then Austin got down on one knee and pulled out the ring, which was hidden behind the laptop she was playing the game on.
