the shape of things

[Matt Wilson]

Sales of Primetime Adventures are going better than I'd anticipated. It's a month and a half or thereabouts since I put it up for sale, and I've sold about 40 percent of my print run. If current trends continue, it looks like I'll run out close to the end of February.

That means another printing, or a switch to pdf sales, or maybe both. I haven't decided yet.

Meanwhile, I've started actually getting ideas into semi coherent text for a game in the works. Right now I'm calling it Galactic, and I spend a lot of time playing with that word in Photoshop instead of actually writing content. I did, however, manage to write a few pages today, so there is actual progress being made. I'll write more about it at some point in the design forum. For now, I'll just say it's going to be a narrativist epic space adventure game dealing with things like sacrifice and repercussions.

Hey Matt,

Right now I'm calling it Galactic, and I spend a lot of time playing with that word in Photoshop instead of actually writing content.

Did you know that http://www.halfmeme.com/nicotinegirls.html">Nicotine Girls is the end-product of me messing around in Photoshop and keying "nicotine girls" (as a reaction to the visual characteristics of a downloaded font) as test text?

Galactic is a great title. Can't wait to see your graphic :)

Hey Matt,

Great to here that PTA is selling so well.  It's a great game on its own but has added value in that it can be used to in conjunction with any game to give it a TV feel.  I'm excited to see what you follow it up with...
