I do freelance PR for video games. Sometimes I also write about them. Now and then I even play them for fun. Email: [email protected]
In anticipation of my Twitch stream tomorrow with Ron Gilbert, I dug some Thimbleweed Park and Monkey Island stuff out of my closet that I'm offering as donation incentives.

I'm also willing to cross-stitch Thimbleweed Park characters for charity!

Oh wow, we suspected dachshund because Daisy is very long, but didn't get any.

I think our dogs are related. Is yours a mix? (Our DNA test said mostly chihuahua + poodle, plus several other things.)

I am incapable of writing first drafts on the computer. Gotta do it by hand. Came to the coffee shop to write this morning and I forgot my notebook. 😭 Okay, let's do this.

In about 15 minutes I'll be on twitch.tv/breakthroughT1D chatting with @karlj.bsky.social, a lead programmer at @cyan.com who has type 1 diabetes.

Super excited to chat about his game dev experiences and play realMyst Masterpiece Edition!

Saddest dinner ever.

We're at the mall. I remember being really impressed by the crowd scenes when I played this originally.

Also: Ethan, you had one job. Where's Jason?
February 8, 2025 at 3:20 AM
Yep, we're doing this.

I decided to replay Heavy Rain. Why am I doing this to myself.

The scene is based on our fireplace. Rosy (the stick-legged tan dog) died last spring and we adopted Daisy (the floppy-eared brown dog) this year.

For Christmas, I memorialized my dogs in miniature. The dogs were created by artist Lucy Francis. The scale is a little larger than 1:12 (standard dollhouse scale).

During the stream today, BT1D Play cofounder Hans ten Cate ( who worked on Sims console ports at EA) posted in chat about limitations of bringing the games to console and it jogged a memory of an Amazon review I wrote for Sims 3 Pets on PS3. I just looked it up and... TOP CRITICAL REVIEW, BABY!

On Tuesday 12/17, I get to interview one of my game dev heroes on the @bt1dplay.bsky.social Twitch channel -- WILL WRIGHT! So excited!

One of my favorite parts of these fundraisers is cross stitching rewards in exchange for donations. For $150, I'll cross stitch the Animal Crossing or Thimbleweed Park character of your choice. $500 for a group shot, or $1,000 for a whole afghan!
