I'm pretty much run ragged at the moment what with one project up and running and 3 more in development. I signed off the alpha for a board game yesterday as yet another project raises it's head... Board Game: Inevitable Betrayal "Three years into its five year journey all is not well aboard the Weyrell Corporation Starship Inevitable Betrayal. JCN, the ship's AI, has suffered a paranoid break and has literally split it's personality into facets so it can mend itself.

Locations: 10

If you can help me it would probably be best to try and reach me at your_paine@yahoo.co.uk as I visit deviantart somewhat rarely these days.

thanks in advance.
