Less than a week before going to Greece for my birthday, I have an infected wisdom tooth. And the nerve inside the tooth is infected as well. I’ve just spent an entire evening having holes drilled into me, but it hurt so much they couldn’t even kill the nerve endings. If they take out the [...]
Double Whammy!

Absolutely Thrilling
“Absolutely thrilling” is what Condoleeza Rice thinks what Barack Obama’s achievement of having had Osama bin Laden murdered is. Now, don’t get me wrong: Osama bin Laden was a criminal. He deserved to be arrested and tried for crimes against humanity. He deserved to rot in prison for the rest of his life for the [...]

Le Update
I’ve updated the site’s theme, and I’m very happy with the new look. It’s not entirely done, of course; lots of little changes are still going to happen, and some of the content will get a complete overhaul. All in all, though, I’m quite pleased. Good news, everyone! Just when I had completely given up [...]

Uncomfortably Numb
It wasn’t my toe, actually, but my finger. As I was closing a door last night, my brain made some kind of weird mistake and my finger got squished between the door and the frame. Squished? Nah, that doesn’t do it justice. The door slammed into it. It was a motherfucking explosion of motherfucking pain. [...]

Sleep defeats Video
The third Making Of is done, but letting it render and then uploading it will just take too long. It’s been a long day and I really need to go to bed. I’ll upload it tomorrow.

A Barrelful of Links
Links! They’re wonderful! They smell of heaven! They go “bloop” when you touch them! Here’s a bunch of them for you to enjoy: Gaming Made Me: Quest for Glory IV. The Quest for Glory games remain hugely influential in my work, especially in the Lands of Dream games, and QfG IV was the first one [...]

The Book of Living Magic, Progress Report 2
First of all – my heartfelt thanks to everyone who donated and helped to get the word out, especially Terry and the Gnome. (Terry and the Gnome. Sounds like a TV series, doesn’t it?) The situation has gone from terrible to merely bad, and trust me, that is a big step forward. I’ll be able [...]

Help?
I’ve put up a donation button again. I was hoping not to, but things are getting very tight, and if you can spare a bit of money, you could help keep two artists and a cat from starving. We’re working hard on The Book of Living Magic, but the problems we encountered with Alphaland and [...]

Cheezburger Cat and the New Game.
Our cat is on the front page of I Can Has Cheezburger. This is a moment to remember… (The caption isn’t mine, but I uploaded the photo a few days ago.) In celebration of this momentous occasion, the cat has decided to hide under the bed. Also, we will be making a new game this [...]
