If all goes well, Verena and I will be in Greece for the next month. I won’t be able to respond quickly to emails (I’m still way behind), but we will be working on Ithaka and our novels and stuff, and there will be occasional posts. Take care.

My curse upon your venom’d stang
Teeth. I hate teeth. If there is a Creator, the existence of teeth proves that He’s one evil son of a pre-Creator void. I don’t have a good history with dentists, especially not in the last ten years here in Germany. I don’t blame myself for this; it’s hard to know if your dentist is [...]

Amazing!
This is just to let you know that we’ll be in Berlin from the 24th until the 27th and may be hard to reach in that time. I realize the timing is inconvenient for all kinds of reasons, but there’s not much I can do about it. I will be checking my emails every now [...]

The Secret Gates
Remember what I said earlier in the year about accelerating? I’ve been slowed down by some enormously painful tooth problems – which two dentists failed to recognize, meaning the problem got pretty bad and since I’m somewhat resistant to anaesthetics they’ll actually have to knock me out completely to fix it without my brain melting [...]

YAY
Reposted from Indiegogo: It is done! And you did it. All of you. Thank you so much! We are very, very grateful. It’s amazing and heartwarming that not only will we get to make Ithaka of the Clouds, we will also get to go back and polish the previous Lands of Dream games so that [...]

The Music of the Lands of Dream – Part I
Here’s an update from Chris Christodoulou, the amazingly talented composer of The Sea Will Claim Everything and now Ithaka of the Clouds: Hi, I don’t believe we have met before. Allow me to introduce myself. I’m Chris and I’m your travel age— sorry, I mean I’m the composer of Ithaka of the Clouds. Some of [...]

Ithaka of the Clouds – An Update
The first few days of the campaign have been amazing. We freaked out a little when Paypal suddenly stopped processing contributions for almost a day (just our luck), but once everything was fixed we saw that quite a few people were actually supporting us. It’s slowed down now, but we’ve already reached more than $7000! [...]

Clown of the Jungle
Sometimes trying to get something really important done feels a lot like this. (I remember watching this cartoon with my dad when I was a kid. We both loved it, and we still mention it every now and then. And much to my surprise, it’s as good as it was when I first saw it. [...]

As you set out for Ithaka…
Ithaka of the Clouds has been on my mind for a long time. It began as a tiny seed of an idea: a game about a troll. From there it grew over the years, never withering despite the hardships that we faced. It became the tale of two trolls: a tale of love and life [...]

Best of Casual Gameplay 2012
So the time has come again for the Best of Casual Gameplay awards. These awards are voted for by the public, so winning one last time for The Book of Living Magic was quite meaningful to me. This time I have more than one nomination – as a matter of fact, four out of five [...]
