A few days ago I released LootMore, the sequel to Loot, on Kongregate. That brought the total number of Flash games I’ve released up to 11 (which is substantially more than I would have ever expected to release, if you’d asked even just a few months ago) — and so far each and every one of them has managed to be somehow surprising. Now, if I could just figure out what all the surprising responses amounted to, I’d be in great shape…
As the games age (and by internet standards The Unfortunate Necromancer is profoundly ancient — it’s been out since April!)

Good grief, I don’t update this blog nearly as often as I should. I’m sorry for that, but it does tend to fall by the wayside between the Flash games, the various tinkering projects, and all those bothersome intrusions from “real life”. We are past due for a discussion of some of the Flash games, the responses to them, and an update on where some other projects listed on this site are headed though, so here we go…
