Whoa, some people are awesomely skilled artists! I was watching a conference by @standardcombo on ASCII art and got blown away by what he is able to achieve with simple characters. I'm in awe.

I wrote a brain-dump of the sorts of design questions in my head when working on azure-mud, the Roguelike Celebration social space.
Maybe this will be useful to you if you run synchronous online events, or are building a platform for such things!

We're extending the deadline for submissions to January 15, 2021! Plus some examples of what we we're looking for, though feel free to send us anything that you think falls under the genre of electronic literature. We'd love to consider it. backslashlit.com/submit/ !!

I wrote a bit about the technical architecture of the @roguelike_con social space, and how it uses serverless technology to scale up to tens of thousands of concurrent users in the same virtual space!

For anyone who's been interested in hosting their own events using azure-mud (the Roguelike Celebration social space), there's now a "Deploy to Azure" button in the README that does most of the hard set-up work of deploying your own instance! github.com/lazerwalker/azure…

If you missed my Roguelike Celebration talk (Procedural Generation for Dogs), it's now on YouTube!
Yes, you too can use procedural generation in your game, even if the concept of procedural generation terrifies you--because dogs.
