About the author
I'm Juuso. I bake games. Indie style.
I started coding games when I was a small kid with access to Commodore 64.
I started this blog in the end of 2005, the same time when I started my own game dev studio (where I work part night time). Since launch, this blog has seen over one million visits from people all over the world. More about me can be found here

You are right. Our current game (Fairy Cubes) is a mahjong. No. It’s a 3D mahjong. No. It’s a 3 matching mahjong. No. It’s a skill based action mahjong. No. It isn’t a mahjong. :)
