So Close, Yet So Far Away
Don’t really have words right now.

Oh My Heart
I still haven’t really gotten over the end of R.E.M., but they chose a beautiful album to go out on. I’ll write about their music and its place in my life someday. Not today, though. Right now I need to go back to writing dialogue for the Thoughtful Lizard. A …
Minor Museum Mupdate
I’ve uploaded a very, very minor update to The Museum of Broken Memories, which means it should now run on whatever systems a game made in Visual Basic 6 can run on. It no longer tries to change your screen resolution, so you can play it on 16:9 screens, too. …

Traitor around the Web
I’m somewhat surprised to see Traitor getting quite a bit of attention. I think I’d been sitting on it for so long that I’d allowed my frustration to take over so much that I was convinced everyone was going to hate it, especially the people who liked my previous games. …
