My best stuff:

• Murder She Bet, a multiplayer game about "putting a number on" your judgements
• The Educational Game Designer's Vow of Silence, a manifesto
• Untold Riches: Portal, an illustrated guide to the most ground-breaking work of communication this century has seen

More...

• Experiments in communicating using software: Rotating in 4 dimensions, an educational toy in VR; Music of the Spheres, a puzzle game; The Spread of Measles, another interactive lecture; Maryam Mirzakhani tribute; Topology via Asteroids; Crystals and six-dimensional patterns; Inside Hepatitis B; CootVR, a VR program for structural biology

Things I recommend:

• Games and educational stuff: Portal and Braid, the alpha and the omega. Followed by: Parable of the Polygons, Incredipede, Dragonbox: Elements, Human Resource Machine, Nano Pandas, World of Goo, and Bond Breaker (in fact all of Andy Hall's games). Here is a complete list.
