i really cannot overstate that the original perfect tides is one of my favorite games of all time. i'm a sucker for a good point and click, and to use the medium to tell a millennial coming-of-age story is genius.

Why play Perfect Tides?

- If you liked the webcomic Octopus Pie you'll find a very similar narrative vibe.
- If you like point n' click adventures, it's been lauded as one of the best of the decade!
- If you are or once were a horny/scared teen, it's here for you.

I have letter to the editor this week in our local paper.
Our community is, once again, facing a developer who wants to turn public, protected coastal land into a golf course. We've been here before. This time, it's shadier. And God knows it was shady last time. www.invernessoran.ca/top-story/co...

Consume Me is finally out! This game blew me away when I looked at it for IGF. It deals with the real pressures of growing up as a teenage girl while telling that story through a whirlwind of delightful QWOP-like minigames. It’s charming and fun and smart and I hope everyone checks it out.

did you feel stupid, fat, lazy, and ugly in high school? well i did...but at least i made a life-simulation RPG about it!
