That's interesting Vincent.

I wrote a lot of games before On Mighty Thews, games that thankfully will never see the light of day.  One of the things that I get from reading your blog is understanding why On Mighty Thews works when so many other games I worked on didn't.  I think I didn't have the skill at the time to intentionally design towards the effect I wanted, and instead just stumbled on it by accident.  That process, revising and improving On Mighty Thews, and the work I'm doing on new games has definitely given me the tools to understand what you're saying a lot more now.

I look back at things I read two or three years ago, and realise that I really didn't understand them the first time I read them.  I think I finally get it now, but who knows? In two more years I might read them again and see something totally different.
