Princeton Videogame Conference: Prologue

Princeton Videogame Conference: PrologueJerz’s Literacy Weblog)

Presenters have started to gather for Princeton’s videogame conference. About eight of us met for some socialization last night. On the way home, I misread my map, managed to get myself taken to the wrong Red Roof Inn. This is all rather ironic, since part of my talk covers map-making in Will Crowther’s “Colossal Cave Adventure.”

I just shook hands briefly with Nick Montfort while on the way to make copies of my handouts. I’d better get back to the coffee and donuts… More later.
