When I finished one of Frostpunk’s campaigns for the first time I didn’t feel like I had won. I felt hollow and empty, like a part of my soul had been taken from me. I had won. But at what cost?
Bugs, Habitats, and Refactors
The next version of Bok’s Banging Butterflies will introduce villagers that can interact with butterflies. It’s still in the design stages, but I’m starting out by fixing a few bugs and working on what I can until I get my flow back again.
The Nature of Intelligence
Arthur C. Clarke once said that “it has yet to be proved that intelligence has any survival value.” It’s a statement that could still hold true today. Does our intelligence make us superior to other animals, or will it lead to our downfall?
Escape from the Bandit Camp
Rose, Aegon, and the Troupe have just slain the bandit leaders in Tazok’s tent. They have learned that Tazok is in the Cloakwood and that an organisation known as the Iron Throne is behind both the bandits and the iron crisis.
Stories from Koh Phangan
We did a lot of interesting things while on Koh Phangan. A lot of it not really worth a full article to talk about. So here’s a short photo journal of some of the things we got up to before we set sail for Koh Tao.
Portal 2: This Was a Triumph

Butterflies of South East Asia
I’ve been travelling around SEA for a while now, and there have been a lot of butterflies along the way. I’ve decided to add a few of the butterflies I’ve seen around to the butterfly mod, helping to pad out the variety of butterflies players can encounter.

After spending a few days in Restenford, Aegon and Rose have assembled a new party to once again return to the Bandit Camp. They stand before Tazok’s tent, visions of death swirling in Aegon’s mind. They don’t know what they will encounter inside, but this time they will be prepared.
