Getting ready for my Monday dialysis session. I got myself a coffee… I got a real busy week ahead - RetroGameCon in Syracuse is this weekend and we have a booth! @dwarvenjester.bsky.social will be there with me and it should be fun!

You really did an amazing job on those collectors editions. Honestly stunning work, sir. Thanks for putting so much work (and heart!) into them.

I kept the torch for 80s and 90s adventure games alive in my heart for a long time after they faded from popularity, but I feel like I’ve reached a new point where I’m just not as into it as I once was. I hope I get it back because it brought me a lot of joy once. I miss doing it full heartedly.

I definitely miss the times when my friends and I were more excited about making point and click adventure games. Most of the crew that I made my games with have moved on with their lives. I still try to plug away at it, but I find my heart not in it as much as it used to be.

Been too long since I posted here. The summer of my recovery continues - I can walk a lil bit with my walker now. It’s a process but I’m happy I’m making progress. Now if I could only swing some energy into working on video games - I’ll admit my desire to do so has been in a waning phase all year.

Working my way through this Wednesday! Say hi if you see this… I love getting random hellos whilst I do my treatment!

Just sitting at dialysis, trying to get through my four hours. Had a cup of coffee before I got on and it was amazing, now I’m enjoying some Bottlecaps as a snack, courtesy of my incredible friend Dale who gave me some last week when he was on his way through town to head to Albany.

Some of us learned some hard lessons, some had great successes, some I wonder where they even are today. I definitely miss those times. Life‘s a crapshoot though and sometimes it works out and sometimes it doesn’t. I’m just thankful we had those times together.

Man, I miss getting together at video game/game dev cons with my friends, colleagues & teammates. 10-12 years ago we were all working on some really great projects and had stars in our eyes over the future.

It’s my birthday! Another year achieved despite some big bumps earlier this year! Spinal surgery is rough and rehab is rougher: I can walk short distances with my walker now, & I’m working hard with PT every week. I’ve been posting more updates here, so you can keep an eye on it. gofund.me/77da16f95

Thankfully, behind the scenes, the team has been working on some really cool stuff. I can’t wait to share it with people. At any rate, I am home, I am recovering and I plan on getting back to working on these games that I love so much. I hope you are all well.

Infamous Quests @infamousquests.bsky.social · 06/04/2026
Well, just a few updates from me - after a 41 day stint in the hospital/rehab - I am home now. My legs are still pretty useless after spinal surgery. I’m in a wheelchair at home, but I’m resting and recovering better. I start home physical therapy on Tuesday, and hopefully we can get my legs working

Infamous Quests @infamousquests.bsky.social · 23/03/2026
But I will be back to working on all the games and projects that I have been missing and I’m excited about what’s coming up because we have some really cool stuff brewing behind the scenes. I might’ve been hospitalized, but the team isn’t and they were doing some really cool things while I was away.

Infamous Quests @infamousquests.bsky.social · 23/03/2026
But hopefully, I’ll be home soon. I’ve been in the hospital for over a month now and I miss my home my kids, and my cats! I’ll continue rehab at home as an outpatient, and I will need a wheelchair to go any kind of distance. I’ll be able to use walk around my house. Recovery is slow.

Infamous Quests @infamousquests.bsky.social · 23/03/2026
Learning how to walk again has been really crazy; something that I had been doing for over four decades subconsciously is now something that I am striving to do while thinking of all the different muscle groups that have to activate in order to make one stand and walk. It’s kind of wild.

I’ve been in rehabilitation following my spinal surgery… my legs have been slowly “waking up” and yesterday I stood for the first time during Physical Therapy. Then later in the day I took my first steps using the parallel bars. It’s been slow going, but I’m starting to make progress.

Headed into surgery for my spine tonight! Hopefully this will alleviate my issues and I can walk again.

Because a couple people asked, I will still need to raise about $1000 to pay for a new mobility wheelchair for me to use while I recover from spinal surgery. Insurance cover is 80%. I have a GoFundMe that my friends set up for me six years ago now but it’s still going. gofund.me/790b276ed

Yeah I mean I have to go fund me that my friend set up for me years ago and it’s still going on. People can still donate there and that will definitely help. The insurance will cover 80%, but I’ll still have to come up with like $1000. gofund.me/790b276ed

Hopefully the surgery will be successful, but I’m still going to have a pretty long recovery and it looks like I need to get moving faster on getting that mobility wheelchair. Just another complication in my long history of health problems. My surgeon was a really cool guy though. I have hope.

And CT scans along with X-rays and this morning, the spinal surgeon and forwarded me that I have massive spinal stenosis in my thoracic vertebrae that has rendered my legs useless. I will be having surgery this week laminectomy to hope to resolve this. If you have fingers, cross em for me?

Well folks, I am here to update you… I have currently been in the hospital all weekend as I have lost the use of my legs. My condition has been slowly deteriorating for the last six months and I came home from Dialysis on Friday unable to get up or walk. They had spinal surgeon examine me with MRI

I know! Having QFI and Colossal Cave on both my switch and my Xbox is a trip for me too. Like… two video games I have worked on are available in consoles. That means I’m like actually semi legit. Heh. At any rate I hope you are doing really well!

Hey my friend! I’ve been out of it for a while and I know I haven’t checked in, but I just did and I’m really excited for you! I hope you’re doing well. I’m always so amazed at everything that you’re doing.

This update, sadly, is not game related but one of my health. An update on things as I try to deal with mobility issues and getting through another winter… you can read the full update here - gofund.me/b49bafe43 Thanks to all checking in on me - I’ve been down but not out!

Some people complain about deaths in Adventure games, especially Sierra games, but for me, half the fun was discovering some of the funny and interesting deaths. I know that when we made Quest for Infamy, we tried to create some fun & interesting ways to die and equally fun death messages.

I need to get a new computer chair. I need something a little more comfy and ergonomic for my back. It’s hard to sit at my computer for any length of time lately.

Just sitting here thinking about what a great dude @dwarvenjester.bsky.social is. I’m thinking about how I have to catch up with him sometime soon… I’m so busy during the holidays. I didn’t get in touch with everybody that I really wanted to. Judt settling now into January, should be fun

I was just thinking about people that I used to talk to on Twitter a lot, who I haven’t heard from in years. Either they stopped using social media or they left Twitter… but there were people that I used to just casually converse with that I miss. Losing touch happens. I always like saying hi.

And my first transplant from my father… who I sat across the table from today, and admired what a great man I was lucky enough to have my father in my life. Thankful is such a large word, but I feel like it comes so short of how I feel. I’m just glad to be here still.

Infamous Quests @infamousquests.bsky.social · 28/11/2025
I have had amazing people take care of me and help me live another 23 years past what should’ve been my expiration date. I often think of my donor families… my second and third Transplant came from deceased donors. Families who decided to donate organs on the worst day of their life. They saved me.

Infamous Quests @infamousquests.bsky.social · 28/11/2025
Just feeling extra thankful today. I got to sit down for another amazing meal with my family, and with my kids. The fact that I’m even here still is a miracle and I’m here because of the generosity of so many. Especially my organ donors. Sigh. Between them and the good crew at the dialysis centers.

I’m really sad about the passing of “Burger” Becky Heineman. I was lucky enough to strike up a casual friendship with her over the years, mostly based around chats about Tass Times in Tone Town. She was just so smart and innovative. For me, it was really cool to make friends with a hero of mine. RIP

I sat at home alone today. No one called. I didn’t go anywhere or do anything. My buddy Ron did text me mid-day and my Dad texted me early in the evening. My kids FaceTimed me a couple times. But all in all, a very solitary day. I’ve felt a little isolated lately but I’m loathe to change that now.

The past couple weeks have been really tough. I have been dealing with a personal family situation that has been taxing and difficult. I am so behind on so many things that I need to do. And I really only have so much energy to do them. Here I am at Dialysis pushing on. Things will get better.

Just heard “If You Leave Me Now” by Chicago on the radio. Song instantly transported me to hearing that same song floating of a tinny old radio on my grandparents porch at their camp in the Adirondacks. It was the early 80s, a beautiful summer evening and I can remember just how it smelled. Perfect.
