  • Denial Dresses and Chaos Containers

    Dear Insane Children,  Greetings from the insane heat of Shanghai! While it’s scorching outside we’re cool as cucumbers (Pickle Ricks?) in the underground lair – working away on Asylum, Out of the Woods, and a variety of other projects. My creative inspiration is being fueled by the Blade Runner 2049 soundtrack which is streaming off…


  • The Fashion Alchemist

    Dear Insane Children,  Please join me in saying “Hello!” to all the new inmates arriving in our asylum.

We spent all of last week packing and prepping to move – and then 7 hours on Saturday loading/moving/unloading two big trucks. It’s amazing how…


  • Death, Taxes, and Moving

    It’s been said there are few things in life more stress inducing than death, taxes, and moving. So the stress I’m feeling lately makes sense. Last week I was in Texas to visit with family – several of whom are suffering illness and old age. The time there prompted discussion and thought on the fleeting…


  • The Watcher, The Self, The Shadow

    Dear Insane Children,  Our little Asylum is rapidly filling with new Inmates – all anxious to get their hands on a Chaos Coin. To all the new arrivals – WELCOME! Your support and involvement is greatly appreciated 🙂  Today’s art comes from our good friend Omri. He’s delivered yet another stunning illustration of Alice’s adventure…


  • Chaos Coin Chaos

    The Chaos Coin promotion seems to be causing a lot of, well, chaos. In hopes of making things a little more clear here are some recent comment responses I’ve written:  The Chaos Coin is a physical coin. Owning one grants you a matching virtual coin in Alice: Asylum upon which we’ll encode your name (per…


  • Welcome To The Idiots Ward

    Dear Insane Children,  There are a lot of things I find myself wanting to improve in relation to the first two Alice games when we start work on Asylum. Controls, design,  etc… but one thing in particular keeps popping up in my head with regards to the overall theme / genre / mood of the…
