The first game I completed was Superman on the Atari 2600. It was one of the first games that *could* be completed.

For those who have never heard of the MOVE bombing
The largely forgotten history of Philadelphia’s police bombing of Black organization MOVE
This week marked the 40th anniversary of one of the worst tragedies in Philadelphia’s history. In May 1985, the city’s police department dropped an improvised bomb on a residential home that housed th...

I have written a little #godotEngine program to randomly select albums from a text list.
I am going to use it to select an album, listen to it, then write a novella-length Twine #interactiveFiction based on what that does to my brain.

I write quickly, competently, under deadline and under budget. I'm even better when it comes to high level planning and developmental editing.
Artists, I think we're all too comfortable sharing our imposter syndrome.
I would love to see you step out of your comfort zone and confidently state what you think you're actually really good at.
No self deprecation, just what you think you're the strongest at
Is anyone brave eniough? 👀

Back in 2017 I was paid to use what passed for gen AI at the time. I was given access to the tool, and tried to use it to write some interactive fiction.
It really wasn't too different from what text gen AI is capable of now, at least in terms of utility & hasn't improved in ways that matter [1/5]

I hate the driving in the first Police Quest game. Ugh. 1987 EGA release, not the VGA remake.

This is from an interview with a documentary director, who should be the last person to use generative AI for any kind of research.
![You’ve got super fans pausing and zooming in on individuals frames of your documentary. One allegedly shows one of the Duffers with a ChatGPT tab open on their computer. In your presence, what did they use ChatGPT for?
I mean, are we even sure they had ChatGPT open?
I’m personally not, but the internet seems sure.
Well, there’s a lot of chatter where [social media users] are like, “We don’t really know, but we’re assuming.” But to me it’s like, doesn’t everybody have it open, to just do quick research?
I do.
How can you possibly write a storyline with 19 characters and use ChatGPT, I don’t even understand.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:7t2urmt3i33jl6tjgiolio6g/bafkreidw2tmcr2ayq74oqmjm5pn2tdox6hlxnpqevhuqqj6oa7nsslx3oi@jpeg)

Final Fantasy, Ultima, Wizardry, and Dragon Quest VII are the best of their respective franchises. When making an RPG, just go right to 7.
This place needs some Innocuous Discourse pronto. Quote this with a take that’s not political or aggressive

Luck is the most important metric for success as a indie creative, but "get real lucky" is a terrible business plan.

Next I'll start on an analysis of Police Quest, which is less propaganda than it is a police procedural manual masquerading as a game.
At least until Daryl F. Gates gets involved.

It is 2026. I have been unemployed since June 2024. Several interviews, a little freelancing, but I'm in dire need of work.

Hey, I've uploaded the first narrative analysis video of the new year. We're delving into Space Quest II: Vohaul's Revenge. Released in 1987 by Sierra On-Line, it carries the franchise forward into a realm of deadly insurance salesmen clones. #retroGames #retroGaming
