I'm very please to announce a public release of my drag-and-drop bookmarking, game-making, and wandering tool Scrubjay! Scrubjay is a weird website builder that lets you cobble together web elements, images, links, text fragments, etc into a series of nested rooms...
"SCRUBJAY" sits over a bunch of images of frogs, birds, doors. it's a very 90s look

lovely little review of bremen that really pops under the hood. this writeup speaks to many of the same questions i was considering when designing the game — liar's dice as a gameable skill, player/character diegesis, and pacing narrative arcs for a very short runway

A spread of two digital comic pages, the left featuring a mountaintop with rounded structures next to a large tree, and a ruined city in the far background. An inset panel shows a pair of hands tugging on cloth. The right page shows the shadow of the tree as it falls over a window and a person using a pipette to draw something out of a syringe body.
