Hey, darts --
I used to feel exactly the same as you until I found out that early Christians, and especially scribes would write "X" as short for Christ (because "Christ" in Greek starts with the letter chi, which looks like "X"). So it's actually quite an old tradition.

I will note, however, that it is odd to write "xtian", when, if "x" is short for Christ, you end up with "Christtian", which doesn't make much sense.

it's pronounced "tonics"

lol on the "christtian"... I just feel that hey, if your gonna get into Christian Game Development, you may as well say "Christian" rather then "xtain", sort of feels that it's down grading of sorts...

Is it just me? or does anyone else feel the same?

You have a good point there, darts -- although the early Christians were probably not trying to "take Christ out of χριστιανους", it certainly feels that way these days. I concede the point.

Fun stuff. While the graphics are good enough, it'd be nice to see that game get overhauled one day. I liked pilars of fire though.

The maker of that game deserves a stack-o-cash so he can run with it and make a new version.

quit posting on CCN? nope. I havn't been driven off yet.

I made a rabbit village once, that rocked.

The games on the website are soooooooooooooooo out of date. Once my exams are finished I will start to properly design games.

Can't wait to see more games from Fish Studios. Are you guys still working on new/old projects? looks like you have a nice selection of games, so you guys definately should have experience. Unfortunately I'm too busy atm to check them out, their screenies look cool though, very arcadish :P awesome

Keep up the good work!!!
