I leave here permanently on Monday, and delete my account then. If you need to get a hold of me, this is your window, otherwise, find me elsewhere.

It might be time for me to log off of here for a good long time. I won't delete this yet, but I really don't want to contribute here anymore. If something changes, I might come back, but odds are, it's just time to let it go. I'll check messages for the next day, but then done

Steve Jackson just reissued Autoduel for PC in their normally Pen and Paper webstore.
It's a buck.
Remake is apparently being worked on.

Which famous CRPG designer once said: "I can't spell, have no grammar techniques, and have read less than twenty-five books in my life"?
This is brilliant both for it being fun, and for giving me a moment of touchstone to why I got into computers.
Type-in BASIC programs are a cornerstone of 80s #retrocomputing. And in honour of #ti994a type-in BASIC programs, I've now cooked up a hopefully fun-to-peruse magazine type-in edition of my TI BASIC cassette game, Hell's Halls: pixelpedant.com/hh/hh-typein…
A little late to finding this game, but loving #Lowlander on mobile. An old school tile RPG that brings me back to games like Ultima 1. If you're into old #crpgs it's worth a look.
Watched Beastmaster this weekend, and had forgotten so many awesome parts to it, but forgot how much of a horror vibe it had and left thinking "I want @RealSamRaimi to remake this."
"Make the game you want to play" is the advice I hear. Unfortunately I want to play all the games... so... I'm kinda stuck.
Been waiting a long time for this! If you aren’t watching @GeorgGreat ‘s videos your robbing yourself of great insight and entertainment.
Go watch. Do it now!
Hi, everyone! So here's the next step in my years-long Ultima journey - hope you'll like this one as much as I've enjoyed making it... Wait, is that how the phrase goes?
In any case, tell me what you think! :)

I got to share my opinion on the recent Unity happenings in an article by @PreMortemGames;
"Canceling Gigaya has had a bigger impact on the community and perception of Unity than leadership might have anticipated. (...)"
