Humble Comics Bundle: Hot Off The Presses by AWA/Upshot
Humble Bundle has been working its magic outside of ‘just’ video games for a while now – and fans of comic books have been well served in recent months with […]
My First Published Writing Work
I can hardly believe it myself, but I’m approaching my 500th daily article on this very blog – and it made me think about how far I’ve come since I […]
Kickstarter: Pixel Bison
Hot on the heels of the well received issue 1 (reviewed by yours truly here), as well as pre-orders now being live for the second issue (here!), creator and editor Andrew McMaster has now launched a Kickstarter campaign in order to fund the third issue. Though the first and second issues have been self-funded – partly as a proof-of-concept to […]
Review: Pixel Bison Issue 1
Though for the last decade or so I’ve slowly moved away from reading physical magazines, books and comics – mostly due to the fact that the media in question is […]
400
It’s not the most dramatic number, is it? 400 is like an awkward middle ground between the Sparta-invoking 300 and the half century grandness of 500. Yet it’s still a pretty big milestone for me. A little over a year ago, I had barely a handful of published articles to my name – and most of those were written and […]
My First Twitterversary
Today is a special occasion, being exactly a year since I set up and used my Twitter account for the very first time. I was always very hesitant to use social media – especially with all of the seemingly endless toxicity I’d heard about in the gaming community – but I’m pleased to say that my experience has, for the […]
So long, 2019 – and thank you!
Another year has passed and I’m pleased with the progress that I’ve made. I’ve maintained the dramatic weight loss that I achieved last year (which I wrote about here), I created a Twitter account – and have had met some absolutely amazing people because of it – and I’ve come so far with my writing, which is most definitely the […]
A New Review Appears!
Okay, so that title might be stretching the truth a bit. It’s not exactly new, but this week – with me being busy focusing on board game reviews – I […]
Portfolio
Hello to all of you readers out there, new and old. I appreciate you all taking the time to check out my blog – it’s not always easy to find […]
Book Review: Florin’s ZX Spectrum Haul of Games
Much like Paul Davies, the author of Florin’s ZX Spectrum Haul of Games, I grew up in the 80s. Also like Paul Davies, I have limited recollection of ‘important’ experiences […]
Paradigm Shift – Kickstarter
Way back in the dark days of 2007, when my own blog/website was not something I could ever imagine having (not least because I wasn’t confident enough in my writing […]
A New Review – and a Heartfelt Thanks
I’m a bit late to the party with this post, but I’m immensely proud to have once again had a review published on Nintendo Life. Without further ado, here’s my […]
Weekly Round Up
It’s been another busy week for me; somehow, however, I’ve still managed to maintain a pace of an article a day. For most of the week, I’ve tried to push myself into slightly unfamiliar territory and wrote several non-video game related pieces – there’s definitely been a more traditional, card-and-board-games feel to the blog this week, which wasn’t necessarily intentional! […]
Well, that escalated quickly…
The digital ink has barely dried on my very first Nintendo Life review – and yet, here’s another one! Thank you to everyone who was kind about my Beast Quest review, especially those of you who wanted me to get a chance to review a decent game next. Your wish came true! So without any further ado – here’s my […]
Corpus Malicious – Update
I featured the deliciously dark DnD 5e companion Corpus Malicious shortly after its crowdfunding campaign launched on Kickstarter (at which point, impressively, it had already smashed its funding goal) – and, with ten days to go on the campaign, I thought I’d check in and see how it was doing. Turns out the answer to that is very well indeed. […]
Weekly Round Up
Well, that was a weird week. Travelling to a very intimidating meeting for my day job and having a day out of work to attend a funeral for a beloved family member added to my general lack of energy this week – and yet…I still, somehow, managed to get an article published every day. Let’s see what I covered this […]
