A Gamers Manifesto
A Gamers Manifesto – [via]
A rather opinionated view of the state of video games today. There’s a fair amount of truth in there though!
My Next Game
I have been working on my next game for a while now. It’s going to be an updated version of Bubble Bomb. This may seem like a strange choice since Bubble Bomb is essentially ‘Yet Another Colour Matching Game’ (YACMG?). The reasoning was very simple though – it’s the best selling game on Binary Sun!
Why is the game so popular?This is something that intrigues ...

The reason people visit Binary Moon
BinaryMoon.co.uk has been around for years, but it’s only since I changed web host that I have been able to find out why people are visiting my site.
