I'm live right now with Space Quest III on Twitch! I'm pretty sure this is the best Space Quest game, except for the times when it's Space Quest V instead. twitch.tv/decafjedi

Sierra tried their hardest to capture a cinematic spirit with Dark Crystal, with every 'room' having its own graphic. Some are lovely and stand up on their own as an art piece, such as this scene from the valley of the stones.

To celebrate the milestone, I've updated the site for the first time in ages with tons of new content. Check it out! wiw.org/~jess/roger.html

for some reason back in 2017, I decided to make a website to make fake video game screenshots. This was a good idea and made a lot of people laugh.
Here's to the Death Generator, eight years and 270ish games later!
