Hmm, have to disagree there... while I rather liked the two Renshai trilogies, the Bifrost Guardians was pretty crappy. In fact, enough elements turn up in both the Bifrost books and the first Renshai trilogy that I decided it was likely that the author wanted a second go at the cooler concepts in a better work.

I play guitar, piano, sing, and compose and record music. And while I will agree that writing your own may be more rewarding, goddamn but I find Guitar Hero and its kin to be a hell of a lot of fun anyway!

I'll third the recommendation for White Hat.

I am, in fact, writing a 2d tile based game, similar to Exile or the early Ultimas, in JS. So far, so good. I may wind up screaming and giving up, but for now I think it's going to be doable.
