The best part of grades one through four was undoubtedly Oregon Trail 2. I still don’t fully understand how educational it was (other than learning was the definition of scurvy,) but like most kids, I was really in it for one thing: the hunting.

I want you to talk about your first ever post to Bitmob. Why’d you write it? How was the response? How have you grown as a writer since?

Love reading what people write in the margins of books? One Bitmobber asks why games can't take the concept and run with it.

Some helpful guidelines for all podcasters and would-be podcasters.

Which developers would you choose to make a game for you?
