Timely as ever, I have released an MS-DOS shareware game in 2025: mhomer.itch.io/cromavor A turn-based quick territorial acquisition game, it runs under DOSBox and it should also be playable in-browser at mwh.nz/dos/cromavor

Fast & Easy ASTs for Flexible Embedded Interpreters, in MPLR this week. A format encoding ASTs as simultaneously valid code in languages from Java to Haskell to Excel, allowing programs, parsers, and typecheckers to be serialised and loaded into interpreters in that language. mwh.nz/pubs/mplr25
