There and back (online) again Why I'm excited for small games

My new years resolution is to focus on starting and finishing small things more often, prototypes, projects, etc.... To start, I created a substack and just published my first article. Please keep me honest if I go radio silent for more than a week

Looking optimistically to better tidings and news in 2026 than in 2025, not being such a social luddite, and ideally making more games.

Imagine a normal office building hallway. Cream walls. Grey low-pile carpet. Now imagine this hallway has about twelve different wall segments, all at different angles to one another, almost none of them parallel, like some kind of corporate funhouse.
