FOR THE RECORD
Apparently some clods at Nintendo don’t really understand the meaning of fair use when it comes to Let’s Play videos, so this has kind of come up.
If you want to do an LP (or stream or any other sort of video recording) of one of my games—well, personally, I don’t really get the appeal, but—that is awesome and I would very strongly encourage you to go ahead! LPs are great for...

Hey, are you interested in the Analogue Deluxe Edition but can’t make it to Bit Bazaar? Well, sometime in the next week or two, I’ll start taking pre-orders for it, so I can figure out how big a second run I need to do.
(However, you should still try to make it out to Bit Bazaar if you can—there’s awesome bonus material in the form of a preview of Hate Plus’s soundtrack,...

I’ve been meaning to release the source code to Analogue for ages; sorry about taking so long! Here are a couple of notes on it:
Please don’t try to transform the demo version into the full version by using set_flag.nd.rpy, because it won’t work properly. There’s a lot of files missing from the demo in order to save space; it’ll crash about halfway through if you...

Christine Love, author and developer of Digital: A Love Story and Analogue: A Hate Story agrees, was part of the original Lost Levels lineup. “Robert Yang asked me to do a talk at Lost Levels and I was very excited,” she says. Her Lost Levels talk concerned the role of cuteness in games, similar to Andrew Vanden Bossche—in fact, it was Love’s maid outfit Vanden Bossche was sporting. She...

“When did I ever do such a thing?” said Bao-yu indignantly. “[…] I fully realize that poems written in the privacy of the women’s quarters are not lightly to be passed around outside. Ever since you spoke to me about it, I have been careful not to carry that [poetry-inscribed] fan with me anywhere but inside the Garden.”
“Cousin Lin is right to be...

Admitting inbox defeat
Okay, so this year, the amount of mail I’ve gotten has exploded by like an order of magnitude. I read every single one, but I am really really bad at responding. It’s a problem, I know!
That said, I am impossibly backed up, so I am going to have to declare defeat. I’m clearing my inbox of anything before January 1. If you emailed me in 2012, and are still expecting a response...

I’m in Japan on vacation until the end of the month! If you need to get ahold of me, Twitter is your best bet. (Facebook, for some reason, I’m having trouble accessing.) Anything that isn’t urgent, I probably won’t get back to you until the end of the month. ごめんなさい!

My email apparently died sometime during the weekend. I’ve just fixed it now, and emails that were bouncing all weekend have been trickling through—but if you sent something to me between now and Friday, you may want to resend it just in case!

A couple of things
Analogue: A Hate Story is now 50% off on Steam, for the duration of the summer sale. I hear it’s pretty good!
I’m going to be out of town and internetless until around this time next week. If you need to urgently get ahold of me, I’ll be checking my email once a day, so that’s probably your best bet. Otherwise, see you next week!
