I’ve been in rehabilitation following my spinal surgery… my legs have been slowly “waking up” and yesterday I stood for the first time during Physical Therapy. Then later in the day I took my first steps using the parallel bars. It’s been slow going, but I’m starting to make progress.

Headed into surgery for my spine tonight! Hopefully this will alleviate my issues and I can walk again.

Because a couple people asked, I will still need to raise about $1000 to pay for a new mobility wheelchair for me to use while I recover from spinal surgery. Insurance cover is 80%. I have a GoFundMe that my friends set up for me six years ago now but it’s still going. gofund.me/790b276ed

Well folks, I am here to update you… I have currently been in the hospital all weekend as I have lost the use of my legs. My condition has been slowly deteriorating for the last six months and I came home from Dialysis on Friday unable to get up or walk. They had spinal surgeon examine me with MRI

This update, sadly, is not game related but one of my health. An update on things as I try to deal with mobility issues and getting through another winter… you can read the full update here - gofund.me/b49bafe43 Thanks to all checking in on me - I’ve been down but not out!

Some people complain about deaths in Adventure games, especially Sierra games, but for me, half the fun was discovering some of the funny and interesting deaths. I know that when we made Quest for Infamy, we tried to create some fun & interesting ways to die and equally fun death messages.

I need to get a new computer chair. I need something a little more comfy and ergonomic for my back. It’s hard to sit at my computer for any length of time lately.

Just sitting here thinking about what a great dude @dwarvenjester.bsky.social is. I’m thinking about how I have to catch up with him sometime soon… I’m so busy during the holidays. I didn’t get in touch with everybody that I really wanted to. Judt settling now into January, should be fun

I was just thinking about people that I used to talk to on Twitter a lot, who I haven’t heard from in years. Either they stopped using social media or they left Twitter… but there were people that I used to just casually converse with that I miss. Losing touch happens. I always like saying hi.

Get Quest for Infamy, the full soundtrack and a digital copy of the Q FI companion all for one really low price this holiday season!! Steam keys included. itch.io/s/167134/que...

Just feeling extra thankful today. I got to sit down for another amazing meal with my family, and with my kids. The fact that I’m even here still is a miracle and I’m here because of the generosity of so many. Especially my organ donors. Sigh. Between them and the good crew at the dialysis centers.

My buddy Ron hosts a radio show on Sunday nights that features interesting and rare vinyl albums. He and his crew talk about vinyl and they spin it on the show. The studio where they have been broadcasting from for 16 years is closing. Help them! @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/ron...

Check out our Quest for Infamy bundle - get the game DRM free, along with the digital version of the QFI Companion & the full soundtrack. One low price! itch.io/s/167134/que...

Rebecca Heineman, a true industry pioneer and the legend behind Wizordum’s Mac OS port, has passed away after a battle with lung cancer. She will be deeply missed. If you’d like to support her family with medical or funeral costs, the GoFundMe link is attached. www.gofundme.com/f/help-rebec...

I’m really sad about the passing of “Burger” Becky Heineman. I was lucky enough to strike up a casual friendship with her over the years, mostly based around chats about Tass Times in Tone Town. She was just so smart and innovative. For me, it was really cool to make friends with a hero of mine. RIP

I sat at home alone today. No one called. I didn’t go anywhere or do anything. My buddy Ron did text me mid-day and my Dad texted me early in the evening. My kids FaceTimed me a couple times. But all in all, a very solitary day. I’ve felt a little isolated lately but I’m loathe to change that now.

November update on my go fund me; join me on my journey through surviving Dialysis and hopefully getting another kidney transplant. You can check out the updates here. Thank you to everyone who has donated and shared in the past. In this Thanksgiving season I am very thankful. gofund.me/24f2f86a

The past couple weeks have been really tough. I have been dealing with a personal family situation that has been taxing and difficult. I am so behind on so many things that I need to do. And I really only have so much energy to do them. Here I am at Dialysis pushing on. Things will get better.

Just heard “If You Leave Me Now” by Chicago on the radio. Song instantly transported me to hearing that same song floating of a tinny old radio on my grandparents porch at their camp in the Adirondacks. It was the early 80s, a beautiful summer evening and I can remember just how it smelled. Perfect.

Accidentally ended up listening to Christmas Music this morning. Trans-Siberian Orchestra is playing now and I ain’t mad.

Hot fucking damn. Less than 24 hours and I've reached my goal. I can go out and buy a new computer TODAY. THANK YOU!!! I'm going to leave it up for a little longer, though, 'cos if it gets an additional 869 DKK (~$135 USD), I can throw in a 2TB hard drive. www.gofundme.com/f/sqhcomputer

Sometimes I forget that our soundtracks are available on Bandcamp. Check out this track that I wrote for Frogsheen. I always like this one a lot. infamousquests.bandcamp.com/album/ultra-...

Lord, I’m so bone weary tired. I feel like this is something I often talk about on social media, but this is often a condition I am in so it’s relevant, I suppose. Dialysis really really takes it out of you. And I’m getting old. I was 24 years old when I first started Dialysis… (1/2)

Way back in 2016 when I was captivated by the first season on Stranger Things, the fellas and I created a point & click mini game tribute to it. The nostalgia wave hit us right in the feels and this was the result. infamousquests.itch.io/stranger-thi...

Imagine if publishers decided all books had to be three times as long, had to feature full-colour illustrations on every facing page, and, ideally, would cost the same as they did in the noughties. That’s what we’ve done with video games.

Dialysis Monday! I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue!

Listening to Deep Purple - being a guitar guy, I always loved Richie Blackmore but I absolutely had a big spot in my heart for Jon Lord - that overdriven organ was amazing. His solo in Highway Star was insane.

Sitting at dialysis, eating skittles. I got two hours to go, so I’m gonna daydream about winning the lottery and putting an addition on my house so I could build a recording studio! Dreams!

This has it all - Blackthorne, Escape Frogs, sandwiches. Check it out!!!

Falling back in love with making adventure games again. It’s a niche little market these days but boy, my heart is in it. Finishing up things on Roehm to Ruin really makes me want to do Quest for Infamy 2. I’ve been sitting on the story for that for over a decade… maybe the time is near.

And now…. Deep thoughts

Still trying to remember to get a handle of posting over here. So of course I’m gonna rattle off a nonsense post at 4AM when I can’t sleep. Feeling a bit like Bilbo Baggins once said “like butter scraped over too much bread.”
