So I'm new to A2, but is Rice Beal a distant relative of a certain other Beal that I hear everyone here hates?

if i may make a suggestion: add a link back to the main project page on each of the individual games on itch

The Ann Arbor library (and the OG Borders) were the centers of my life in the late 1970s.

You should check out the stuff they’ve been posting for the bicentennial. There’s a lot about the city’s history, including a few interviews and articles about that Borders

Well that initial wave of people has already played my game but I went ahead and fixed some bugs that were annoying me anyway

michaelklamerus.bsky.social•122 days ago

I have the adventure game making bug. I want to make a bunch of weird stuff in AGS now

michaelklamerus.bsky.social•123 days ago

I think more people should make games anthologies about weird guys from 100+ years ago

While I suspect the Ann Arbor District Library has a larger budget than most libraries, I do think game devs should try to do more with their local libraries, like organizing a games showcase/expo of local games. It's a great way to get eyes from people who aren't extremely online and probably free
