Hi Jordan! Love the book, and your collected works. Can you tell us what you’re working on next?

jmechner.bsky.social•33 days ago

Thanks! 🙏Yes, just sent out my January email newsletter with a sneak preview of a couple of new things--you can read it at https://jordanmechner.com (and subscribe). I'll post more news in the RSS feed later this week, and more details about the project with Vatine very soon!

Nice! I had no idea you did a newsletter too. You’re a hard working guy

Bonjour Jordan. J’ai dévoré Replay. Le mélange de biographie familiale et de l’histoire de la création de vos jeux est surprenant et très réussi.
Si jamais vous dédicacez de nouveau sur Paris, je serai ravi de venir :)

Merci ! 🙏 C’est sur que je repasserai à Paris en dédicaces cette année !

Here's a few reviews and 2/3 of one page to get started!

I use 3 color palettes (as in Apple II) for the 3 timelines: Blue💙for my younger years making games in 1980s-90s, yellow💛for present day, sepia🤎for my dad's and grandfather's stories.

Blue and yellow interweave in this 3-page excerpt about the never-completed 2D Prince of Persia trilogy...

interesting to hear about your color choices…!

And here are the first 3 pages of the book, with a transition from sepia to blue:
