New Game Design-Focused Site

Hey everyone!

We wanted to announce the creation of a new site:  http://keithburgun.net/ !  It’s going to be the site where I’ll be publishing future articles on the topic of game design theory.  If you’ve been a fan of articles such as Games Hurt Stories, Stories Hurt Games, On Score and the like, you’ll want to tune in over at the new site.  In fact, I’ve even re-posted my latest game design article over at the new site.

Another thing that will be moving and getting renamed is the Dinofarm Games Podcast.  This will re-surface under the name The Game Design Theory Podcast over at the new site.

In the future, dinofarmgames.com will be focusing on reports about AURO’s development and other games that we’re working on.  Fans of Blake’s ART BARN column needn’t worry, as that will be staying!

Thanks for reading!

My Book is Here!

Those who pre-ordered copies of my book, Game Design Theory, will probably be receiving them in the next few days.  In my excitement, I took a few photographs to prove that yes, it really is real!

Thanks to everyone at CRC Press who made this book possible, and were really great to work with.  Also thanks to the great Dr. Reiner Knizia for his lovely foreword!  Here’s the book on Amazon – go pick up a copy!

EDIT:  I just got word that the book will be made available in eBook form very soon!
