Includes a handful of page scans. I make Ludiphilia entirely on my own — I even compose the music now. It's a labour of love, and I have no plans of quitting as long as I can afford to pay the hosting and domain fees, but I would very much like to spend more time on it than I currently do. That requires money, unfortunately. So if you'd like to support the show, you can make a donation via Patreon or PayPal.
