Link roundups are funny. With vacation season still in full beat, activity picked up again. No theme this time, just a few links from July:

• making your own engine: a survey of the landscape
• Square Enix summons Meteor, launches its NFT project
• ‘Moria’ creator Robert Alan Koeneke has died aged 64 (via Slashdot)
• AMD and Nvidia leaks show we are drunk on power, and the hangover is going to be brutal

And a couple more from August:

• D&D's oddball space setting Spelljammer returns, with flying whales and dead gods
• Book Excerpt: Warren Davis explains how video digitizers paved the way for Mortal Kombat and NBA Jam

No comments either way. Next one... probably in September.
