This was really interesting. The note about everything getting consolidated in Discords and Twitter threads in particular is something I’ve been thinking about and am similarly concerned by. Just trying to get my own forgotten game working has emphasized how ephemeral videogames can be if they don’t make it into the preservation canon. Thanks for submitting!
