TOM FRANCIS
REGRETS THIS ALREADY
Hello! I'm Tom. I'm a game designer, writer, and programmer on Gunpoint, Heat Signature, and Tactical Breach Wizards. Here's some more info on all the games I've worked on, here are the videos I make on YouTube, and here are two short stories I wrote for the Machine of Death collections.

Machine Of Death Is Out In Two Months
That short story collection I wrote for, Machine of Death, is actually getting published. It’s out in October, in big floppy paperback, and it’s going to be illustrated. It includes stories by:
- Randall XKCD Munroe
- Ben Zero Punctuation Croshaw (who I just interviewed)
- Ryan Dinosaur Comics North
- Tom Who’s Writing This Francis
Illustrated by people including:
- John Scary Go Round Allison
- Kate Hark! A Vagrant Beaton
- Aaron Dresden Codak Diaz
- Dorothy Cat And Girl Gambell
- Christopher Dr McNinja Hastings
I have no idea who’s illustrating mine yet, but you can’t really lose with this list. The final lineup very charitably calls my story ‘brutal, desperate and real’, so it’d be kind of hilarious to see Kate Beaton do it.
I have a flight to catch and a lot to do before and on it, so hasn’t totally sunk in yet. Here’s my story, and here’s the comic that inspired the collection. Oh yeah, and here’s the awesome cover:
