Announcing a Hybrid Game Opera for Monster

I never thought I would make an opera. But now I have. In a few weeks time the above market square in the town of Monster will be transformed into an arena where fighters duel each other using their pet monsters. If this sounds familiar, it is no coincidence. Mega Monster Battle Arena is one [...]

Reboot 9.0 Day 2

(Waiting for my train home to arrive, I finally have the opportunity to post this.) So with Reboot 9.0 and the after-party done, I think I’ll briefly write up my impressions of the second day.
