A quick glance around this website will reveal a lot of unrelated projects that I’ve tackled over the years. There’s the book<\/a>, the political satire<\/a> site*<\/a>, the terrain project<\/a>, a D&D campaign<\/a>, the movie<\/a>, some Unreal levels<\/a>, some game mods<\/a>, a few WordPress plugins<\/a>, a half-finished coding project<\/a>, and now my webcomic<\/a>.
