Project Octant
A programming project where I set out to make a Minecraft-style world so I can experiment with Octree data.
Charging More for a Worse Product
No, game prices don't "need" to go up. That's not how supply and demand works. Instead, the publishers need to be smarter about where they spend their money.
Project Frontier
A programming project where I set out to make a gigantic and complex world from simple data.
The Disappointment Engine
No Man's Sky is a game seemingly engineered to create a cycle of anticipation and disappointment.
The Witch Watch
My first REAL published book, about a guy who comes back from the dead due to a misunderstanding.
I have to admit, I lol’d at that, especially the punchline, which (apparently) is the point of said punchline. :)
Hee! I love these pieces of yours, but I have to admit I’d still like to get a WiiFit. ;D

Oddly: every time you write about the WiiFit, I think “I should get one of those…”
I got one.. Now I’m a Ski Jumping Professional.. I’m in the “normal” range.. so it’s not quite so bad.. my wife gets the “over weight” treatment.. and her Wii (Avatar) swells up after her “Body Test” (weigh in)..
I say, get it.. really.. my kids from 3yo .. to me.. at 43.9 years old (but sometimes a Wii age of under 30!) all love it.
And Shamus’ comics are dead on.. which makes the thing even better.
I do wish the redundant clicking was taken out of it.. once you’ve been trained what the things mean it gets old to be told again and again… and yes, Wii, I know I can use you to weigh other things.. quit telling me how to do it!
Anyone else having flashbacks?
“Look at you, Hacker. A pathetic creature of meat and bone, panting and sweating as you run through my corridors. How can you challenge a perfect, immortal machine?”
*rolling so much* My family owns Wii Fit, and yes, the Wii Balance Board is a pesky, annoying little creature. Like Dave said, this stuff fits. No pun intended. ;)
