The administrator of this site and a Game-Maker author dating back to 1991, working under various personal and organizational names including ''Aderack,'' ''Eric-Jon Rössel Waugh,'' ''EJR Tairne,'' ''A-J Games,'' ''Don'Pan Software,'' ''Janet L. Groth Productions,'' and ''Jeneric Rules.'' Of these, the most prolific and possibly familiar label was ''A-J Games,'' a developer name derived from Korrigan's first game, ''[[A-J's Quest]]''—which was in turn based on a comic strip featuring a neurotic anthropomorphized bear named Andrew-Jonathan. Under that label, in 1994, Korrigan produced several games for the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD-ROM CD-ROM] release of Game-Maker 3.0.

−
During the 2010s, Korrigan swapped the ''A-J Games'' label for a run of (largely unfinished) games produced under the ''Jeneric Rules'' banner.
 
−
 
 
−
Other labels were employed to differentiate games that with less of a personal connection to Korrigan, with ''Don'Pan'' focusing on parody or games produced for friends and acquaintances, and ''Janet L. Groth'' lending anonymity for ventures into lewd satire.

The following is a rough approximation of original release order, based on file metadata, credited dates, and a hazy recollection. To further muddy the water, projects often overlapped, or were put aside then resumed at a later date—and many games were later revised.

== Distribution ==
 
−
 
 
−
Most games were uploaded as [[shareware]] demos onto local Maine bulletin boards; from there they made their way around the BBS circuit and onto occasional shovelware CDs. A half a dozen games were specifically designed for the Game-Maker 3.0 CD, and several more were also included either as shareware or as demo gameware.
 
−
 
 
−
Sample versions of Game-Maker 3.0, packaged for BBS distribution, include ''[[Peach]]'', ''[[Crullo]]'', ''[[Zark]]'', and ''[[Patchwork Heart]]'' as their sole gameware. RSD also produced a [[Game-Maker Demo|demo game]] incorporating an interactive slideshow (and the bulk of Sheldon Chase's ''[[Woman Warrior and the Outer Limits]]'') into the first level of ''Peach the Lobster''. An earlier demo contains ''[[A-J's Quest]]'', version 2.0.
