Re-upping for the morning crowd: I'm organising a Jubensha Convention in London for 8-9th May 2026!
Come and play jubensha, meet top game designers, and learn how it's designed. It's *probably* the first jubensha English-language convention in the world...
Tickets will be around £15!

these are essays that were 30+ years old, then, but still fresh (and still are)
bc it’s about thinking about programming as a process and a tool
programming was an intellectual tradition not just a job
of which there seems very little today

learning to program in the late 90s and early 00s, you’d inevitably run across classic works like Goto Considered Harmful and No Silver Bullet, even if you weren’t particularly bookish, and there was tons of discourse about HCI as well, all grounded in decades of research
i’m afraid that’s all gone

They fuck you up, your King of Kings.
They may not mean to but they do.
They leave you trunkless legs of stone,
And add some visage, just for you.

They leave you trunkless legs of stone,

Whose land this is I do not know
The statue fell down long ago;
No one will mind me stopping here
To watch the sand o’er ruins blow.
My camel friend must think it queer
To rest with no oasis near
And precious little shade these days
Gives Ozymandias, I fear.

This is just to say
I have looked on
the works
that were in
the desert
and which
you were probably
thinking
would still stand
Forgive me
they were trunkless
so vast
and so old

i suppose this brings out the failure of Kiss Garden's protagonist(s). they're involved with two worlds notable for their fractal subtleties (nature and sex) and entirely failing to even recognise those subtleties.

For reasons too complex to explain here, I wrote an Apple II program designed for Early Modern Age Catholics to determine if they're allowed to have sex with their wife, or if it'd be a sin.
Here's the video of it running.

perversion-led design: when you start making something, dig down and find whatever tiny thing it is in your idea that 'turns you on', i.e. the oddly specific element that you are unbearably compelled by, then treat that as sacred
What's your number one personal game design principle? And even better - does it have a cool name?
