I’ve created a Facebook page for this site. I hope you’ll follow me there if Twitter isn’t your thing.
Fermented Fun
Like pickles? Have I got a dystopian society for you! I review PICKLE INDEX, another piece of interactive fiction from Sudden Oak.
Juliet_Bot
I created a Facebook Messenger bot to suppose what Juliet, of William Shakespeare’s ROMEO AND JULIET, might have thought about her pending arranged marriage.
Zombies Detected
I’m on my early morning run and my right knee whines as I look ahead at a rising hill. I am full of regret. My dinner last night really should have been more than beer, popcorn, and ice cream. “Zombies detected,” a robotic voice intones.
Gotta catch some of them, I guess
POKÉMON GO has turned into something huge. I’ve played a lot of geolocation and GPS games and have some thoughts about the phenomenon.
Guardian of the Blue Light
Recently, standing on the shoulders of those who’ve come before me, I created a Twine game that pulls geolocation data. A work in progress, it’s called GUARDIAN OF THE BLUE LIGHT.
The Nightmare Of My Youth
A twisted tribute to the early works of Sierra-Online STAIR QUEST is an adventure game created by monsters. I reviewed it.
Spreading Silence
I review the fantastic digital book THE SILENT HISTORY which also has its users write additional content that can only be unlocked by physically traveling to a location (in theory).
