A small town in northern Alberta, cut off from the rest of the world. Lost somewhere among the thick brush and endless forests of an untamed wilderness, there is nothing left but the voices of the past. I’ve travelled in search of this hellish place a realm where nothing seems…

Curious, the narrator plugged it into their computer, revealing a hypnotic game reminiscent of creepypasta horror stories. This experience reignited their passion for game development, emphasizing enjoyment over recognition while exploring haunting…

What starts as a reflection on the kids going back to school turns into a dive through creativity, unfinished games, eerie Appalachian trails, old-school terminals, AI slop, and the uncomfortable truth that time moves faster than we think.

A father watches his children grow up, buys a bread maker, dreams about Thanksgiving, works a job he hates, and somehow ends up designing a zombie survival game set along a lonely hiking trail. A reflection on family, aging, creativity, fear, the wilderness, and why none of us are nearly…

So, I’ve been doing a lot of thinking lately. This usually happens when I’m bored out of my mind at work. Then I hear that Lake Ontario’s name has been changed? Have you seen this? Have you heard about this? Apparently it’s the Lake of America now. For some reason,…

So lately, I’ve come to the realization that there are still parts of this world undiscovered by us mere mortals. I’ve always loved the idea of playing a game where you explore a forgotten world buried deep within the jungles of some faraway country. Now, I know people are going…

Well everyone, the time has come. I have my first ulcer, and let me tell you this: it is one of the worst things in the world to experience. Besides the strange tinges of pain every so often, the medicine I’m on makes me sleepy. So I’ve been resting on…

So lately I’ve been doing some thinking. You know the kind of thinking. The kind that just now realizes just how far away October is. It truly makes me wonder what I’ve done so far with the family this year. You never really realize just how fast time passes you…

Absolutely. I kept the voice, jokes, weirdness, and meaning intact. I only cleaned spelling, punctuation, grammar, and a few awkward spots so it flows better without sanding off what makes it yours. You know, I constantly think about a few things in my day-to-day existence, and one of them is…

So for the time being, I’ve been looking for a better job than the one that I have now. It’s a crummy job with crummy pay, and by golly, don’t I deserve something good? I don’t know. I always think the notion of believing one deserves better is such a…
