Here are some games I've been involved with recently.
I've focused on marketing, business development and publishing - - mostly w/ VR but as you can see, I've branched out.
I've enjoyed working with a wide range of people and projects, as every day is a unique experience. 😎

Finished Ball x Pit on Steam with 100%, making it the 3rd game I fully completed (despite me having an account since Half Life 2 😅)
Might go through some other games I'm close to fully finishing and complete them

I am so shocked that Google pushing AI overviews which steal from websites without compensation is reducing the amount of people going to the websites they steal from.
Their AI push is so backwards and makes no sense. It’s an endless spiral to doom. Sites will die and so info won’t be updated.

Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance is now on NSO! The soundtrack is also on Nintendo Music! Crazy they made a whole game based on the guy from Smash Bros.

Here's a great interview piece about NO PLAYERS ONLINE, a fantastic horror ARG game, which recently had its launch spoiled by a false DMCA claim unlisting it from Steam.
Was important to me I helped out a troubled dev pal a bit with its relaunch!

It's the Christmas issue of Famitsu, so that means many Japanese gaming industry folks gave their personal Game of the Year lists. I'll update this thread periodically since there's a lot of them once again.

Had a terrible reaction to some cold medicine the other night (found out I was allergic to it 😨). Had to make a quick run to the doctors to swap it out.
I'm traveling for the next 24 hours or so hoping that things calm down.

Probably Baba is You at the end of 2019 and Slay the Spire now. I've spent way too many hours in Slay the Spire...
Quote this with what you would have said your game of the year was at the end of 2019, and what you would say your favourite game of 2019 is now, if it differs
