Zathira Development Update

While I haven’t spent much time actually making assets or coding, the Zathira shmup game is very much still in progress.

Hello all, long time, no post. Sorry about that. After the completion of WCL: Another Way, I found myself at a crossroads.

Beloved Weapon – my first product

Hey you guys, I ran across an interesting comment today. Someone essentially said “don’t stop pushing your first product; comics and books don’t expire”. And they’re right.
