I self-published Without a Dawn in May. I made zero compromises, and I couldn't be happier how it turned out: store.steampowered.com/app/3145620/... 💛💚
Unfortunately, I've had very little luck with exposure, including the gaming press. 😩

In 2014 I ran a custom-made shipping container called the PlayBox, posing as a time travelling Maker Space. Using arts and crafts, old junk, TinkerCad, Minecraft, and 3D Printers, we made 10,000 robots! Public engagement was off the charts.
