Just the other day, the
Youtube Channel of Philadelphia Area Gaming Expo Organizer Ron Meischker had TSR game designer legend Frank Mentzer on their show. Frank made the announcement that he was setting up a new company that would be called
Temporal Studios (link to website). The project sounds ambitious as there are plans to delve into gaming history, conducting interviews with other RPG legends (Frank name dropped a few in the interview) and print and PDF publication.
Frank has previously worked for TSR,
Gary Gygax' New Infinities and Eldritch Enterprises. In 2017 he unsuccessfully launched a Kickstarter for his D&D campaign Empyrea (also known as Aquaria).
In recent years, Frank has had some health problems, but in the youtube interview he seemed optimistic, saying that modern medicine had helped him avoid the fate of some of his good friends like Jim Ward.
