Come work with me!



We've opened the search for a full time, tenure-track Assistant Professor in Game Arts at Pratt Institute.



A good match would be an artist, game developer, or educator with an active creative practice in indie games, game studies and theory, playful coding, or art games.

Many Nights a Whisper: experiences from 3 players – Luna's Gaming Log I will talk about very distinct experiences playing Many Nights a Whisper, a short interactive essay on dreams, pressure, and expectations. There are no spoiler

Today’s post is about Many Nights a Whisper, a truly impactful indie gem. It was really fun to write this piece, and I hope readers that also played the game will let me know how they experienced it!
First part is spoiler-free, second part is spoiler-full.

It's almost Halloween - if you're looking for something thrilling and chilling to read, have you checked out The Vow yet? My partner and I spent 4 years making the evil T4T erotica of our dreams with the fervent hope that it would become a part of your nightmares πŸ–€πŸ©Έ

Sickhouse is a community and event space that does some of the most innovative experimental games and playful arts programming that I know of.

Right now they're raising emergency funds to get rid of asbestos in their new venue and they could use your help!

A Calvin and Hobbes strip where Calvin’s dad is going to read him a bedtime story.

First panel:
Calvin’s dad, scanning a bookshelf: β€œWhat story would you like tonight? We can read anything exceptβ€”β€œ
Calvin, from bed, excited: β€œThe Voynich Manuscript!”

Second panel: 
Calvin’s dad, deeply exasperated: β€œNO! No Voynich Manuscript tonight! We’ve tried to decipher that book a million times!”
Calvin, yelling: β€œI want the Voynich Manuscript!”

Third panel:
Calvin’s dad, trying to reason with him: β€œLook, you *know* how the story goes! You’ve memorized the whole thing! It’s completely unreadable!”
Calvin: β€œI want mysterious glyphs and sigils!”

Fourth panel:
Calvin, in bed and staring wide-eyed into the dark: β€œWow, the story was different *that* time!”
Hobbes, also in bed and staring: (a long string of incomprehensible characters).

Sometimes my 22-year-old self whispers things into my ear. Today he said, "Smartphones double the veil of Maya, they are the antithesis of meditation."
