Ultimate Game
Design: Building Game Worlds was released in 2003 as
one of the first "practical" books on game design. It was
translated into several languages and used as a textbook at several
emerging gaming studies programs.
It features interviews with
many leading game builders!
Baseball in Long
Beach
I'm very pleased to
announce that Arcadia Publishing will be offering Baseball
in Long Beach as part of their excellent Images of
Baseball
series. This title includes never before published images
of Willie Mays, Babe Ruth, and Joe Louis among many others in action
around Long Beach. Included in print here for the first time
are digitally restored panographic images of 1920's era Shell Oil
players. The construction of this book over a four month period in
late 2007 was a source of pure joy. How often do you get to
hear first hand accounts on how to face Satchel Paige at the plate?
Many happy hours were spent sourcing photographs and doing
interviews with a wide array of players, coaches, scouts, and
umpires. The book has received great early reviews, and
sports/history fans have been very enthusiastic with support.
Thanks to all of you!
