Hey it’s been awhile

Hey, it's been awhile. Normally after a year long absence I'd nuke the old posts on this blog and start fresh. I've done it several times since starting this blog in 2008. Hard to imagine it's been 10 years.

I'm coming back though, and I'm happy about it. Actually, the truth is I've been blogging for a few months already, only I haven't been doing it here. Instead, I have a new blog: http://avoiceinthevoid.com

Careful though; the subject matter is...intense. It's a game blog, yes, but it's a blog where I openly discuss my depression. It's dark and unforgiving, and I present it without making any apologies for its subject matter.

It does feature original art, by people like Alex Mayo, Dan Domme, and David Lewis Johnson.

I'm really happy with how it's coming along, although suggestions and feedback are always welcome.

So what does that have to do with this blog?

I've decided to come back to blogging here. I have a big project in the works that I'm going to be discussing and sharing on this blog. And this blog is a more mainstream gaming blog, so you won't have to deal with posts about depression here, that's what the other blog is for.

Okay, so here is something I want to share, mostly so that I have a link to it saved somewhere that matters to me:

Michael R, who is a fantastic artist, also happens to be incredibly inventive, and has made this really bad ass suburb generator that he posted on his blog: http://lizardmandiaries.blogspot.com/2018/07/infinigrad-suburb-details-generator.html

I love this thing. I wish I could come up with something like this myself. Maybe one of these days I'll actually make something useful personally and share it. Until then, I'll have to rely on the ingenuity of others.

So many good things being produced right now...I look forward to discussing all of them in more detail in the days and weeks to come.
