So, today I'm announcing a new book project... and doing a call for papers: crpgbook.wordpress.com/2025/10/31/t...
It's an anthology of video game history outside the usual US perspective - an accessible & exciting panorama of different realities - and I'll pay 300 USD per article.
Please share :)

It's neat that people still play the LOTR mod I started working on in 2006.
I'm not super active in its development atm, but it's still very much going strong, with monthly-ish updates.

Isle of Beasts is a narrative strategy game I've been working on: your people have been exiled to a strange island, and must build a new life there. Gather resources, build shelter, explore the mysteries of the island, and decide what kind of society you will become.
