Who We Are
Arc Dream Publishing is a small-press publisher of high-quality games
(and whatever else strikes its managers’ fancy), founded by Pagan Publishing
veteran Dennis Detwiller and editor Shane Ivey.
Creative
Director: Dennis Detwiller
Dennis Detwiller is an award-winning writer and artist whose
work has appeared in a number of prominent publications over
the past ten years. He has been the art director for Pagan Publishing
since its beginnings in 1991, and in 1994 he co-created Pagan
Publishing's acclaimed Delta Green with John Tynes and
Adam Scott Glancy. He received the prestigious Origins Award
for Best Game Supplement of 1996 for Delta Green, and
again for 1999's Delta Green: Countdown. He also won
Origins Awards for Magic: The Gathering — Homelands (Best
Card Game Supplement, 1997) and The Hills Rise Wild (Best
Board Game, 2000).
In late 2001, he released the original role-playing game Godlike:
Superhero Roleplaying in a World on Fire, 1936-1946. With
its remarkable depth of history and characterization, and innovative
game mechanics by Greg Stolze, Godlike immediately captured
industry and fan attention and critical acclaim. A sequel of sorts, the RPG Wild Talents, appeared in late 2006; a second edition was published in 2008.
Dennis's work has also appeared in various Call of Cthulhu
supplements, Call of Cthulhu d20, Magic: The Gathering,
Polyhedron, The Unspeakable Oath, Hogshead Games: New Style
Line, Castle Falkenstein, Fangoria, Shadowfist, Mythos
and elsewhere.
As a videogame designer, Dennis helped conceive, script and develop Sierra Entertainment's [Prototype], along with other titles for Radical Entertainment. Dennis is now a videogame designer for HotHead Games.
