So yeah, this is a pretty tricky blog post to write. I’ve been debating writing it for a few days – but finally decided last night that I should do this. The reason isn’t for sympathy (as it was mostly my own fault for being trusting) – but more as a warning to others and
Another week has flown past (well not quite, I’m actually writing this yesterday as there is a bank holiday tomorrow, and I may be in the middle of a BBQ and a wee bit tipsy this time tomorrow). It’s been a very busy business focused week. Fringe Planet isn’t just about making a game, it’s
