It’s been a while since I last wrote about Redmine Plugin Extension and Development so I thought I’d give a quick update. I have been sharing sales numbers whenever possible as a way of (hopefully...
This is possibly a solution to a problem no one other than me has, but once in a while I like to challenge myself to see if something ridiculous is possible. This time around I wanted to see if I ...
Although I’m a huge fan of the point-and-click adventure genre, I’ve been primarily focusing on covering 16-bit RPGs in my spare time. I’ve still got a sizeable backlog to wade through, but when ...
I don’t really have much progress to report for the last month, so I thought I’d throw out a few of the games I’ve been working through to see if I can generate any interest in the next article ;) ...
I actually finished this game around the end of June, but haven’t really had a chance to write about it until now. I’m currently sitting out by the lake at the cottage and figured it was about time...
UPDATE: 2016-09-05 - It was pointed out on the Reddit thread and in the comments below that I might have used a cheat which prevented finishing the game. I didn’t think I’d used one, but I thi...
As a kid of the 80’s, I have fond memories of all the old 8-bit and 16-bit consoles that I grew up with. Although it’s easy enough to find ROMs, I tend to find myself going for the GoodTools gener...

Seiken Densetsu 3 (聖剣伝説3) is the third installment in the Mana series. It’s the sequel to Secret of Mana, which is the entry into the series that most North American gamers would be familiar with...
For the first five quarters that this book was out in the wild, I was posting publication numbers any time I got a royalty statement from Packt Publishing for Redmine Plugin Extension and Developme...
I had this game finished around Christmas, but I find my motivation for writing these articles is starting to languish. I’m hoping to get that spark back with the next couple of titles i’ll be tack...

I’ve been waiting write this review for a very long time. I love the Final Fantasy series, and although I got the original back in ‘90, I didn’t really fall in love with the series until I played...
I finally got around to adding an Anime section to this blog where I can track my Plex library. Since this is the first post, I figure I’ll just list of what I’ve worked my way through in the past...
This review has been a long time coming; a VERY long time coming. I heard about Lufia 2: Rise of the Sinistrals when I was still in high school, and have been meaning to play it ever since. Back...
I’ve been meaning to write this post for a long time, as I officially got the royalty statement at the end of June, but I’ve been a bit busy with life, contracts and the occasional 16-bit era JRPG ...
I’m excited to finally be able to review this game, as it’s the direct sequel to the game that got me into RPGs way back in 1990-91. When I say Final Fantasy II, I literally mean the second game...
