About egypturnash
You might like some of the stuff I draw...
The Tarot of the Silicon Dawn: Bright, cartoony, full of modern imagery. There is a card named "Recursion", which has a type-in Python program in the text explaining it. Available on any big online bookstore (Amazon, B&N, etc) or ask your local comic/game/occult/book store. Decrypting Rita: A sci-fi web comic about a cyborg/robot lady with reality issues. Completed. http://egypt.urnash.com/rita/
I do not consent to my comments here, or anything by me you may find elsewhere on the web, being used to train your AI.

It's more Ron Gilbert's thing than anything else. Manic Mansion, MM2, The Cave, Thimbleweed Park, and now TWP2: Gilbert's. Possibly also some of the many kid's games he did https:/…
