Sibyl Moon Games: Processing Feedback

Ask Shiga: Original Art and A Naming Coincidence

Q: My son introduced me to Demon last month and we’ve both been following it obsessively ever since. He likes it even more than Meanwhile which was his introduction to your work. He turns 13 next week and is an aspiring cartoonist, and I think he’d love a page from Demon as a gift. Do […]

The Digital Antiquarian: The 68000 Wars, Part 2: Jack Is Back!

In letting the March 31, 1984, deadline slip away without signing a licensing agreement with Atari, David Morse was taking a crazy risk. If he couldn’t find some way of scraping together $500,000 plus interest to repay Atari’s loan, Atari could walk away with the Amiga chipset for nothing, and Amiga would almost certainly go […]

Renga in Blue: Renga in Four Parts now playable online

This was released last year, but I gather most people don’t want to download an interpreter just to try interactive poetry. You can play, online in your browser, right now (just click on the image below). Thanks to Juhana Leinonen! (Also, you can find everything else in Hugo as well.)

Undo Restart Restore: Hugo online

I’ve set up an online interpreter for Hugo games. It’s basically the same tech used by Internet Archive’s online MS-DOS games collection: a JavaScript version of DOSbox running the DOS version of the text-only Hugo interpreter. The major missing feature is the ability to save and restore games – or, more accurately, the save games Continue reading Hugo online →
