Blog Update: Projects In Development and Fireball! Fireball! Fireball!
Hi all!
I have just added a new page to this site: Projects In Development!
Soon I will be adding a novel and a comic I am writing, but for now there is only one project featured; Fireball! Fireball! Fireball!
Fireball!x3 is a card game I have been working on for quite some time, and I even won an award for it!
If you are at all interested I would recommend visiting the project page to read up on it, and all the files are there for you to print and play the game.
Do you have any creative projects in the works? If not, are there any you wish you could do?
