Poker Night at the Inventory: Now Available
YouTube video by Skunkape Poker Night at the Inventory: Now Available

The original Telltale Texas Hold 'Em was a game I adored and played for countless hours. Poker Night at the Inventory was a worthy successor, and, now, I can't help but be glad that a remastered version was released.

I have secured a few (much needed) extra months for my upcoming Game Cities book, and can't help but appreciate just how understanding CRC Press is.

Wanted to remind everyone that you should feel free to create stuff based on Ex Novo, for Ex Novo, and with Ex Novo (for any purpose) without asking us.

Here's the Ex Novo 3rd party license: www.sharkbombs.com/games/exnovo...

True, that. Protests, and voting should be merely part of our arsenal.

And as the planet goes up in flames, I will still argue that complaining about the complexity of thac0 was a sign we should never have ignored.

I am certain that this was, exactly, the intended experience.

Spent roughly a minute stupidly laughing with this. Ah, thank Richard!

They are not even trying to hide their sadism and evil, are they? It seems that as imperialism is dying it will try to destroy everything and butcher humanity.

It is up to us to stop them, mainly because we can.

Would have been scared to death myself... better to find out later ;)

I fully get you, but can't help but find this new lick of paint (almost) equally fascinating too.

I adored the UI and 3D logic, and it had some awesome puzzles. Wasn't bothered by the cat moustache thing. Yes, it was silly, but relatively easy and not too noticeable.

Episode 3 of Azathoth Blues is now available in all the usual podcasty places. "The body of a young man is found discarded in the street, his death caused by an unknown poison. The trio looks for answers in the invisible world of poverty and exploitation at the edges of society."

Goes without saying. Generally speaking we cut nothing from the music. Or the game.

Despite my (probably misguided) fond memories of the game, this is an excellent Ultima VIII: Pagan Retrospective. ⚔️ Watch it here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4h1...

The Hextile Project is absolutely worth exploring, and, well I aim to do so. ⇢ hexedit.netlify.app

My dream project wouldn't be my own mega-CRPG or adventure game. Oh, no. It would have to instead be a proper and much needed remake of Gabriel Knight 3.

Have spent far too much time thinking of how to actually tackle this, mind you.
