Tim Hutchings is the manager of the Play Generated Map and document Archive, PlaGMaDA, which seeks to collect examples of hand-drawn maps from role-playing games. "Everything is Dolphins" is a role-playing game by Ray Weiss, a role-playing author Hutchings met through PlaGMaDA. Hutchings appreciated the simplicity and beauty of Weiss's dolphin-populated game and challenged a variety of artists to illustrate it. The result is a published role-playing game and an art book, full of clever, funny, and interesting illustrations.
