What's the most engaging thing you remember reading about game history?
I'm even more interested if it covers something you usually wouldn't care about, but still burrowed right into your Veins of Intrigue.

The reason I've stopped publishing historical research from Italy is that, as many of my colleagues have also noticed, most of that research gets "borrowed" by others (often uni professors) who happily attend events and publish books, while you're left being mostly uncredited and misquoted.

Just published a very short and free Playdate game. My 6 and 8 year old designed it and did the writing and I helped with coding and art. It's a big mix of various ideas they had for a game but I had fun making it with them
