Giving up Gaming 3 – The Bells of Change

One. Month. It has been one month since I started cutting games back to one day a week, and good things are going down! So let’s start this update with something I am very proud of, something I’ve always wanted to do. With my new found time I was able to go ring the bell for the Salvation Army. I live in a very poor area and so I did not expect to see much come out of my community. I was wrong. In the one hour I rang for (wanted to do more, couldn’t) I saw...

Of course it takes a great team of writers, visuals, and relatable characters— but when it gets down to what your mood is during a certain scene in the game, the music is what gets you engaged. The team at Visceral Games has teamed up with...
