After a long hiatus ... my first video game TO THE DEATH is now available on Steam. The game is in Early Access, meaning it isn't finalized, but currently has the main gameplay features included. So get it now at a much lower price the the finalized version will be. You can order and play a copy for Windows on PC via the STEAM game hosting platform. If you like the game make sure to support it by leaving a review on Steam. View the game's Store Page here

The game has been available for several weeks, but today I updated it with enhanced graphics & animations among other new features. You can follow the game's development in detail at the Ager Games Youtube channel

Having worked long hours for many months on this, I'm about ready for a break from programming. So I'll now be getting onto making some new video content, picking up with multiple half completed projects that have been on the shelf during game development. I'll also be continuing with writing my first book on film analysis.
