Some buy my new game DINO EGGS: REBIRTH because they played the heck out of the original DINO EGGS -- but never actually bought it !! Shocking, isn't it? Well -- if by selling DINO EGGS: REBIRTH, I can alleviate any guilt, or bring anyone emotional closure -- I'm happy to provide that service. :-) www.DinoEggsRebirth.com http://store.steampowered.com/app/449320/

Very interesting comments, Carlsson and Keatah. I've been encouraged so often to just "do a Kickstarter" -- as if that were a simple and casual thing to do -- but it has never felt natural to me. Perhaps a generational thing. Yes, it is a cliche to say that my game was "a labor of love" -- but that's truly the case. My efforts at marketing are pained and often painful. But my memories of crafting this expansion of Dino Eggs will always be wonderful ones. To have shared my original vision with someone who was 10 years old when Dino Eggs first came out .... And then to be creative partners with that person in this new game.... That's very special. :-)

A delightful review of "Dino Eggs: Rebirth" from a Commodore 64 veteran on the game website Play Nice Play Now: "A Glorious Return From Extinction... Incredibly satisfying..." "At six to seven hours in, and with plenty more perfect ratings and achievements to unlock, I can say that for a fan, like myself, playing the classic game mode alone was worth the entry price. David Schroeder and Eric Ferrot have done a supreme job bringing this classic back from the dead for a new generation. It successfully recaptures the feeling of the old Dino Eggs, while adding more to the experience to keep it fresh."

Thanks to David Cameron -- perhaps not the David Cameron you're thinking of -- but the host of the UK's "One Up Gaming" who invited me onto his latest excellent podcast. We chatted about the good old days, "Dino Eggs" and "Dino Eggs: Rebirth." https://twitter.com/OUGOfficial/status/729579670719582208 Update -- www.DinoEggsRebirth.com got the Greenlight, and the new game will be released on Steam on Thursday June 9. http://store.steampowered.com/app/449320

Here's a curiosity for Throwback Thursday... A "Dino-Eggs" for the old Vic 20 computer dated 1984 -- one year after my "Dino Eggs" came out for the Apple II and Commodore 64. Too many similarities with my game to be a coincidence, but it doesn't seem to be a full-featured copy. In this version, you hop up to grab the Dino Eggs out of the air (!) I hadn't seen this before. Does anyone else remember it? #TBT #retrogaming
