These games are all about negotiating risk: about engaging logically, but then pushing your luck and living with your choices. (Once you scratch, there's no going back).

So I helped build up a little narrative pocket universe for each, in settings and genres where that kind of thinking feels right!
The Zach Attack! Scratch 'n Solve Puzzle Pack is now available for purchase on the Coincidence store! If you backed the project on Kickstarter, your order either already shipped or will ship tomorrow.

That famous advice to Nazi punks applies equally to Confederate cinephiles.
I pretty regularly diss DW Griffith in these parts and it is for the very simple reason that the study and enjoyment of silent films as a hobby has been a cozy little hideout for Confederates since the rise of the talkies and I think it's high time we clean up the joint.

It's been just over a year since my soundtrack for Cook Serve Forever was released. It's still a special one for me and I don't imagine I'll get to do another like it anytime soon! open.spotify.com/album/5lxA8D...

At an absolute minumim, and as an urgent matter of public safety, ICE needs to be removed from our (and every) state.
A life was tragically lost today in Minneapolis when an ICE agent shot a United States citizen.

There needs to be a full and complete investigation, and ICE agents must be held to the same level of accountability as members of any other law enforcement agency.

Not every Chotiner interview is him making some blowhard look foolish. Sometimes he has experts explaining complex situations in clear terms.

Also good discussion of the comparison to Noriega, which was my first question this morning about all this...

PHANTASY STAR ONLINE FOREVER
Sneaking in one final freelance piece before 2025 comes to an end. For @avclub.com: It took multiple consoles and a lot of experimenting, but Sega finally figured out how to make the internet work for them 25 years ago with Phantasy Star Online

I'm starting to write more reviews of smaller titles on Steam.

1. Reviews are very helpful for developers and players alike.

2. It's a nice way to cap off a fun time with a game.

So not only do I recommend Babushka's Glitch Dungeon, but I also recommend writing reviews of indie games you enjoyed!
