Who would have thought it… I am posting an update concerning Steampunk and Furries… The ætherweb really has information on everything… Well, I asked for information about Steampunk and Furries, in case someone could prove me wrong on my previous assertion that there is not too much overlap and guess what happened?

Yes, even classic video games from the paleolithic period of electronic entertainment are not save from Steampunks turning them into clockwork devices, as the following video adequately demonstrates: The Pactuator: a clockwork Pac-Man from Jonathan M. Guberman on Vimeo. Very intersting. I would have liked it even better if a ghost would have swooped in [...]

Strange amalgamations are a feature of Steampunk, so are elements of Art Nouveau. Now I have happened upon this image: Outstanding! This is the kind of game-cover, Alphonse Mucha would have created, I am sure! A thought comes to mind, would this not be some sort of dream team: Mucha doing the cover and bookled [...]

As the regular reader of my blog might know, I am a role player. I have been for the last 22 years (23, come to think of it). I have played most of the popular systems and some more obscure ones.Role playing games changed my life. Really. I was stuck in a bank after school, [...]
