A series of Tweets that Persson sent out caught the attention of several members of the media, with Re/code and others claiming Persson seemed lonely and isolated while hanging out in glamorous Ibiza.

Persson, you may recall, scored a massive deal when the developer company he founded – Mojang – was acquired by Microsoft (MSFT) for $2.5 billion. He left the company to start his own projects, thus Persson is no longer associated with the game he created.

The deal is part of why his personal worth has been pegged at about $1.3 billion, according to Forbes.

Here’s an example of a tweet that caught the media’s attention:

Found a great girl, but she's afraid of me and my life style and went with a normal person instead.

After the tweets lead to national headlines, Persson on Monday chided the media, and said he’s doing just fine these days.

fwiw, while there are articles about my depression because I had a bad day and vented on a trend I saw, I'm sitting here having a nice day.
