Just pushed the button to launch a new Kickstarter for Iconfactory!

We want to make Ollie's Arcade entirely free and add at least one more game to it. (Really, I'd like to add a lot more games to it if we can raise the funds!)

@bigzaphod And I basically never play games on iOS! 🙃

Not that I really game much at all anymore, tbh — though I’ll pretty much *have* to spend some time with Return To Dark Castle when it shows up on Steam, and Civilization VII coming to Apple Arcade is… intriguing.

@bigzaphod I should probably install Steam on the Windows/Linux PC on my side desk — it's not exactly a powerhouse, but it would run stuff like SimCity fine.

But then again, maybe not — I spent *way* too much time with SimCity 2K back in the day, and that was when I could get by on a lot less sleep than I can now 😀

@montyhayter a lot of modern games are just so.... big? They're hard to pick up and play for a few minutes - instead there are huge learning curves, 20 mechanics to master, forced tutorials, etc. It's like a whole investment sometimes.

@bigzaphod any chance for Lode Runner or Rescue Raiders. Boy, how I would love to play these!
