After about... um, 18 months? I've finally posted the first article to Metroidvania.com — a piece to accompany last week's Zork video. This is it. This is what I've been working toward for so long. Hmm... that makes it sound like it should be a lot more impressive than just a short retrospective on an old video. Well, anyway, thank you once again for your support. You've directly helped to make this possible, and I'm deeply grateful.
