Is it done? Is it REALLY DONE???
I’ve been slaving over this game during the last month in a mad mad attempt to finish it by the June 30th deadline. The past 30 days have been insane. This past week alone I’ve been up until the wee hours almost every night working on it. I kept managing to find new things to put into the game and causing myself more problems. However, I was not to be deterred! I was on a mission to complete a game by a deadline, and that’s just what I did. Working right up until the 11th hour, I managed to slip it in right under the wire just before the deadline expired.
Perhaps this project was a bit ambitious for such a small timeframe, but since I’m so neurotic and obsessive this didn’t prove to be a problem. I’d like to thank Shane Stevens, Tom Scary, and Velislav Ivanov for all the help they gave me during the course of this project. From inspiring me with great ideas, calming me down when I got too stressed, and just in general providing great moral support – you guys rock.
So now, blog buddies, I present to you:

Russell Stone works as a Jewish Rabbi at a poor synagogue in New York City. He is a devout man with a problem. Membership is way down and he lacks the funds to keep his synagogue open. Things are looking very bleak, and he has grown progressively more cynical and bitter with the passage of time.
Just as he is on the verge of packing it all in, he receives some interesting news. A former member of his congregation has died and left the Rabbi a significant amount of money.
A blessing? Or the start of something far more sinister? Can Rabbi Stone just accept the money and move on? His conscience says no. Step into his shoes as he travels all over Manhattan in his attempt to uncover the truth.
Features rabbinical conversation methods, a unique method of fighting, an original score, and three different endings!
