Memoriapolis is an incredibly ambitious city builder, and a project I find immensely fascinating. Wishlisted, obviously. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2228280/MEMORIAPOLIS/

Do you know what I hate? Silly AIs popping up throughout design docs, telling me how to do my job.

Huge thank to @duffadash for introducing me to Preserving Worlds, and those exquisite videos on the wild creativity fostered by games/virtual worlds like ZZT, Doom, Myst Online, and NeoHabitat.

@konstantinosd for your unbound manuscript, did the printer have a preferred document format (Word, PDF, etc) for submitting your book?

starting work on an Ultima VII book, and i'd like to pick a word processor that's going to give me the least grief in the future

Canvas of Kings certainly seems intriguing. It's also very cheap for a mapping tool. Have a look: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2498570/Canvas_of_Kings/

Never did well at Cryo's (beautiful) Dune game as a kid, but would now love to give it another go.
