About

Hello. C J here. Welcome to the official Internet home of Infinity Game Studios. This website, like the company, is run by one person, me, C J Mcpherson. If you see the name Zed Matthews floating around that's my other penname and also a character in the Astral setting. This setting is my work and features the Legend series of games that take place in it. You can find those on the Books page. I also write novels, cookbooks and make card games.

In addition to typing I do all of the art, graphic design and typesetting for my products. All art here and especially in the Regency game line is done by me. This art may look like digital renders or Photoshop alterations of images. It isn’t. Everything I draw, from the characters heads to the walls in the background to the shading on their hands, is drawn by me by hand in digital oil paint. The art is oil paint on a digital canvas with some chalk and a couple of hatching brushes if I need a texture like fur or rock.

Announcing Legend - Quantum

Hello. C J here. I'm announcing today the official tabletop RPG companion to my upcoming video game line Quantum Dragon. The tabletop RPG companion is named Legend - Quantum. I finally get to write something in the Legend series again. I am very happy about this. The Legend series other than this one is done and will be out once its proofread, which may be a while from now. Reliably this series is the best work I've ever done on anything. I'm planning on writing setting and character sourcebooks for the whole game line as well but for now I'm working on the core book for the video game crossover. There's a free in-development copy in the Downloads page now. Have fun. C J Mcpherson

Minecraft Experiments - Steampunk Part One

Hello. C J here. It's time for more Minecraft. This time we have some steampunk themed buildings. I'm doing these mostly as an experiment and they aren't in the part of the Astral I usually build, Ascala. Ascala needs more planning so I'm doing generic Astral themes instead of a specific nation this time. Remember that lighthouse form earlier? Well we're going in its direction this time. But first a long minecart ride from the underground station. And here we are in Port Stone. You'll notice the style of building is different. That's because it's a different part of the setting were building here. Here on the surface we have a boat waiting for us. We have a long voyage ahead of us. They've implemented some beautiful coral reefs in one of the previous updates. Believe it or not I've been playing Minecraft since before there were horses in it. Minecraft is still good. And here we are, at the new steampunk build site in the middle of an ocean. We h...

My New Favourite Video Game Part Two

Hello. C J here. I’m just going to continue discussing the video games I’m playing for a while. I’m planning out another batch of Minecraft builds while I play Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Red Rescue Team. It’s kind of weird that these are job activities for me but they are. The Minecraft builds need to be done so I can learn some more things about level design. The Pokemon game is what I’m doing for fun. At least it was. Pokemon make great inspiration for the work I do and the stories I write. I’m now having to make more time for it. Most of the characters in my setting are inspired by the Pokemon games. Our main characters Ivy, Blue, William and Benjamin are all based on some of the Pokemon in the first three generations. Ivy is specifically a fictitious all black Pokemon. Blue is an all blue togepi, William is a persian and Benjamin is a tauros without the horns. I’m going to get back to drawing humanoid versions of the first three generations eventually. These to my knowledge count...
