Occasionally making games, mostly reading about neat ways to make games.
Summer Slow Jams plan is up, oh yeah! I've gotta do at least one again this year, let some folks convince me to actually work on a good game again.

Hyped to be giving a presentation for this! I'll be giving a (lightly opinionated) survey of some modular narrative techniques, mostly aimed at folks who want to have a cohesive emergent narrative in their systems driven games!
