Oh Valve fans. You aren’t a dull bunch, that’s for sure. For those that don’t play DOTA2, last year Valve started a halloween event (pretty normal for a lot of persistent online games these days) called Diretide. Apparently it looked like it would be a yearly thing, but this halloween has come and gone with […]

And with that, this little tale draws to a close. On Monday the one-shots and regular MWF update schedule will resume. I want to thank everyone for their feedback regarding this method of storytelling. Many of you liked it, some of you did not. I was happy to find that things fell pretty much in […]

Last month I talked about a Kickstarter for a tactics-based card game called Alteil Horizons. I’d done a unique backer-only card for them. They were asking for $100k, but fell short of their goal. Well, they went back to the drawing board, came up with a new strategy, secured some additional funding from outside sources, […]

Ok, this is totally off-topic, but… code crab13 is good for 25% off just about everything at Vineyard Vines. We’re family friends with the owners, Shep and Ian, and my sister works there now. I guess they’re doing some sort of employee contest with these codes. I told her I’d help her out and pass […]

I’m back. I didn’t have internet for a while, and then a bug with the website was preventing me from making a blog post. Should be all sorted out now though. I’ll be trudging through my backed up email over the next couple of days, so bear with me while I get back into the […]

It’s been a few days, so you now all have a pretty decent idea of what this storytelling format looks like. If you dig it, but you don’t want to wait to read one page a day, I am offering the option for you to purchase a high-resolution PDF of the entire story up front […]

A little while ago I talked about the pending Ethan and Lucas reboot, and how I was working on a story to test out the format I wanted to use, rather than experiment on something as important as the reboot itself. Well, this is that story. Twenty-five pages, updating daily starting today. I love telling […]

Now that GTA Online is working at least a little more reliably, I’ve been able to put some time in it here and there, start leveling up a character. The missions are fairly solid… deathmatching, racing, parachuting, etc, it’s all good fun and a good place to sink some playtime. However it’s still the emergent […]

I was up pretty early yesterday morning, so I was actually able to jump into GTA Online for a few hours and mess around. Sort of, anyway. Apparently because the cloud servers were down, the character I made was only “temporary”, and not saved. In fact, I didn’t get any of the actual opening credits/cutscenes […]

I’ve been playing GTAV in my spare moments for the past week and a half, most of it on stream thanks to my new setup. I feel GTA lends itself particularly well to streaming, because there are so many potential “holy shit, did you see that?!” moments around every corner. All the little things, like […]

I captured the screen while I drew the Efreet card for Alteil Horizons. The folks behind the game have sped it up and released it so you can watch the art come together.

A couple of weeks ago I mentioned a tactics/CCG hybrid on Kickstarter, called Alteil Horizons. Not only does it look like a really cool game, but backers get access to some exclusive alternate versions of cards in the game… one of which is mine! I drew a new version of the ‘Efreet’, a fiery goat-demon […]

Can’t blog, on GTAcation.

So Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs was incredibly disappointing. I know it was made by a different developer, and unfortunately, it shows. It does not live up to its predecessor. If you’re shopping for a survival horror experience right now, pick Outlast instead. It’s hard to say if I had not so recently played Outlast, […]

All done! At 9pm EST I’ll be streaming Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs! You can tune in via my Twitch channel. Watch live video from timcad on www.twitch.tv

As a reminder, I will be livestreaming Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs Tuesday night at 9pm EST. I’ll play for at least two hours… but who knows. Maybe I’ll end up plowing through the whole game in one sitting like I did with Outlast. You can subscribe to my Twitch channel if you want to be […]

A new Kickstarter for a pretty wild Collectible Card Game/Tactics RPG hybrid has just launched. It’s called Alteil Horizons. You should check out the project page here.

Wednesday night I killed the lights and settled in to play Outlast on stream. You can find the recording here. Be warned though, it’s five hours long. While I had originally planned to play for a couple of hours, once I was in the middle of it, I just kept going, right through to the […]

Thanks to everyone who tuned in to watch the stream! Ended up playing for five hours straight, and completed the game. Was a ton of fun. Well worth the $15! There video of the entire stream is now up. It’s really long, but there to watch if you’re interested. Or better yet, go pick up […]

The two Ethan legacy art prints are nearly “sold out”, or rather, we are approaching a cut off point. Originally I had expected to keep them up on sale until September 7th, but I don’t think they’ll last that long. There are still some available, but be aware that they may sell out before the […]

We’ve got a couple of weeks of survival horror coming up, with Outlast releasing today, and the Amnesia sequel, A Machine for Pigs out next week. I don’t do well with these sorts of horror games. I played the first Amnesia and I still have some very vivid memories of the frights that game gave […]

If you would like to pick up a signed copy of some of the artwork in this update, I’ll be offering a limited run of prints. Each print will feature 8×10 artwork and come with an 11×14 photo-mat ready for framing. Prints are bagged in a protective plastic sleeve and ship in rigid cardboard mailers. Each […]

Titanfall is shaping up to be one of the Xbox One’s most compelling titles. It’s a shame it couldn’t be wrangled for a launch title, it certainly has the potential to sell some systems. Right now Dead Rising 3 s carrying the full weight of being the most interesting launch exclusive, with Ryse teetering on […]
