Head on over to Ivy’s site to download and enjoy the goodness! Groovy Greg set out to make robots that could love. He created six nanobots: Hotbot, Brainbot, Tallbot, Audbot, Strongbot, and Chembot.

Man, it’s been a long time since I’ve released anything. That’s the problem with taking on something huge like Resonance, it takes forever! However, as you may know, I’ve been donating some of my time to helping Erin “The Ivy” Robinson, creator of Spooks with her new game Nanobots. Actually, that game has been sitting […]

The fantastic Independent Gaming blog posted up a list of the Top Twenty Freeware Adventures of 2006 and Spooks clocked in at number three! Big congrats to Erin.

Even though Dr. Zaiss and the esteemed Mr. Gnome have already started commenting… The AGS Award winners were announced yesterday in a fun IRC ceremony which I was able to attend (at 5 AM Monday Morning!!!).

The 2006 AGS award nominations have been announced and general voting is underway. These awards aren’t a huge deal outside the AGS community, but for the people who spend a lot of free time toiling away on their games, it’s an excellent validation of your hard work.

I’ve recovered from my septoplasty. Got that all straightened out, so to speak. Then I recovered from the mind-shattering headache that resulted from the septoplasty. So now, I’m back in working order except that it still hurts to pick my nose. No afternoon snacks for me for a while. Anyways, look what just popped up […]

And to whet your appetites, she’s dropped this work-in-progress screenshot in my lap to share with you. (click to see the full-sized version) I’m looking […]

Ever since releasing the game, people have been demanding a sequel. I personally wanted to see something completely new and original from Erin, and it seems like she’s […]
