Counting down…

I am 37.5% pervy.

Posted on January 12, 2010 by baudattitude

I seem to be running through about one mahjong title per day – this is pretty easy when you’re working on games that have, at most, four opponents.  Finished Super Real Mahjong PIV off of the Saturn “Graffiti” compilation disc … Continue reading →

Posted on January 2, 2010 by baudattitude
