Also there’s been a great deal of entries for the Cover redesign contest along with many, many questions. I’ll keep answering the questions if you […]

We’ve had a myriad of suspects in our 10 years of making ND games, some more memorable than others. With such a huge variety, we’ll often begin a short “kitchen meeting” […]
