In 1997, RTsoft developed the computer game Dink Smallwood.

This game was a little bit different than most. Not only did it have a sense of humor, but it encouraged players to develop their own levels, called D-Mods.

D-Mods are special because they are more than new weapons, enemies, skills, and maps. They encourage, if not require, the creator to craft their own dialogue, jokes, stories, characters, and, sometimes, worlds.

One such creator was Tim Maurer. He joined the Dink Smallwood online community in 1998, and quickly developed a reputation for creating the worst D-Mods ever made.

15 years later, Tim returned to the community that turned him into a pariah. He started on a journey to play (and write about) every D-Mod available, including his own.

Tim discovered that he didn't create the worst D-Mods of all time; there were worse. Far worse. He also rediscovered his love for the game, and enjoyed giving something back to the community that meant a lot to him.
