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 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.

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 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.
