2/17/2026: Switching into Summer mode

I can tell that my output is inspired by the calendar because as soon as Spring Training kicks off, my mind starts thinking baseball and all things summer once again. And thanks to that, I’ve got a couple updates.

First, you can now find the 2024 Nascar Cup Series available for Pile Up Racing. I was trying to finish both that season and 2025 by this weekend’s Daytona 500, but deadlines elude me these days. I’ve started work on last season, so hopefully I can have that one up by the end of the month.

As I may have mentioned in the past, Pile Up Racing has been more popular than I expected (“popular” might not be the right word–I’ve just gotten more comments on it than I thought I’d get), so once I’ve got 2025 down, I want to start adding some historical seasons. Stay tuned!

Second, and in my opinion the more exciting news, I’ve got a baseball game ready to go–just in time for Spring Training games to begin! What started out as a baseball version of Simple Seasons kind of morphed into something a little more complex and a little more customizable. While it still plays quick, I admit that there may be a slightly steeper learning curve.

It’s called Pitcher of Record Baseball, and I should have it posted by the end of the week. My goal is to have three seasons ready and waiting for you: 1926, 1976, and 2025. The page is live now!

That’s all for now, and as always, thanks for stopping by!

1/6/2026: A happy new year

I recently posted a link to my site on the Tabletop Sports board of Delphi Forums, and I’m absolutely blown away by the response I’ve gotten so far. In a way, I made the post on a whim and thought maybe I’d get a few clicks or some interest here or there, but I’ve seen so much more than I could have expected.

So, with this in mind, here are some thoughts from the last couple weeks:

  • If I had known I’d see such an influx of interest, I would have chosen to post at a time when I wasn’t (1) trying to finish all my work before the holidays, (2) attending a number of family engagements, (3) travelling for multiple days, (4) dealing with a broken furnace in sub-20 degree weather, or (5) following around my toddler all day while he tries to turn the TV on. Oh well, live and learn.
  • I’m surprised to see so much interest in Pile Up Racing, but I suppose I shouldn’t be, considering the number of “looking for a good racing game” posts on Delphi. Hopefully, this
  • The One-Pager games were very popular, didn’t see that coming at all. But I guess I wasn’t the only one looking for a quick, compact sim that’s light on instructions. I’m glad to see it!
  • There’s a lot of interest in historical seasons (awesome! they’re my favorite kind of season), especially in soccer, and I’ve already started working on some. Expect those at some point this month.
  • Doing it all again, I would’ve triple checked that all my files were uploaded. Oops. (Thanks for everyone’s patience while I completed the Pile Up Racing instructions, which I didn’t expect to be the longest thing I’ve written since my master’s thesis.)

All told, please don’t take any of this as complaining; I’m actually ecstatic this went so well! Sharing these games that I’ve loved playing by myself and seeing other people enjoy them has been a thrill beyond my expectations.

Thanks to everyone who has checked out my games (and especially those that contributed to my Ko-Fi)! Your interest has ignited my passion for making these, so check back often to see what else I add.

I’m looking forward to 2026 on Short Season Games!
