Attempts of a College Graduate
You ever get bored? You ever just get an idea and you add it to a list of ideas you work on as the next idea comes along? You ever consistently try to make games, write screenplays, work a full-time job, and basically work on 1000 projects at once? You ever stop and think "Wait, there's potential in making a game taking inspiration from the jobs I've had"? Hi, I'm Nathan and currently, I'm making my own indie comedy horror game in Unreal 5 that takes place in a lab (I also work in a lab).

The Road
Today, I conclude what has been this long journey. Here I am, back on the road. It was inevitable that my journey ends where it began. I walk along this path, cars pass me by, and a trail of blood haunts my memories. When I first began to walk, I encountered Margot. There she was, beautiful, enchanting, and some might even say, she shined brightly. So what did I do? I killed her.

The Green Light
It’s over, it’s all over now. I wish I hadn’t seen it coming but I knew all about it. I still remember reading every message she sent him and hearing every conversation she had. I knew about her, the guy she was with, and how everyone just thought about how gullible I was. I’m just some gullible idiot without a care in the fucking world. But if they really think that I would just let it all happen, maybe they’re the gullible ones. I was ready to just give up and I didn’t really matter to any of them. But it’s all over now, from the moment I saw the green light to now, I had grown to realize that my life never had to be like this and now, it will never will.

The Burning Start of Mary Gold
Bet she never knew it would come to this. Sitting alone, drinking scotch out of a bottle, and thinking about how it all went wrong. The only thing that gave her company was that fucking flower. A marigold flower in a vase was given to her by her dad, as it was all that was left of him. She was named after it since as a gardener, he always admired their beauty. They represented such hope and passion, just like the early days of her career. But now, the flower sits as dead as any of her dreams for success. Though, you may be wondering how it got to this point. Well, let me tell you this, every good story starts at the beginning.

It was many years back in the land of France. Queen Marie ruled with a heavy heart and the mind of a true narcissist.

'Survivor: Winners At War' Episode 13
Wow! What an amazing episode of Survivor tonight! First off, nice move blindsiding Kim. That was a brilliant move and Tony managed to pull it off. But now, Michele's scared. So, she chats with Jeremy who listens and understands her concern, even giving her back her 50/50 advantage, since he doesn't want his own game to be determined by it. So now, Michele & Jeremy are back on good terms, hopefully. Meanwhile. Denise is a little stressed, but she felt done with how she's been for a while. So, she wrote on a wood board a message for herself or "tattoos". Endure and Let Go. Endure the situation and let go of the stress, pretty much. Then, Cops R Us reminisces on old times. 6 years since they got together in Cagayan. Tony won once, Sarah won once. Now, this season should be the tiebreaker season as their plan is for them and Ben to get to the final 3 together. But, there's something else that could trouble them. Ben wants Jeremy gone, badly. And he won't budge. And that is bad, since if they take out Jeremy then Denise, Michele & Nick could team up and all they'd need is Ben to make it 4 and take out Sarah & Tony. And Ben can be sketchy at times.

'Survivor: Winners At War' Episode 12
Wow! What an amazing episode of Survivor tonight! First off, nice move Tony! You killed it last time! Your work last week was one of the best episodes I've ever seen. Well done. But now, he's a bigger target. And his allies are pissed. Like, Sarah wants to kill him and Ben wants Jeremy gone so he's mad at Tony for not letting him do that. But hopefully, Tony can turn it around. He's back to old Tony, hopefully it doesn't bite him in the ass. Maybe his spy nest and his telling his allies about his idol plan could work. Especially the spy nest, I love the spy nest LOL. And Kim is targeting him and everyone seems to go for it. So, the current war is Kim vs. Tony and this war is on. Kim's gaining allies to go against King Tony but Tony has his own bag of tricks. It'll be interesting to see who wins this battle of two of Survivor's most dominant winners, Kim Spradlin vs Tony Vlachos.

'Survivor: Winners At War' Episode 11
Wow! What an epic episode of Survivor tonight! First off, nice job taking out Tyson. Jeremy definitely saved himself. Though now, he's likely screwed now, he's in an alliance of 4 that is against an alliance of 5 and he just made a big move while already being a huge threat. So, he's gotta find something. And now, Tony is finally ready to play all out. He's back to old Tony from Cagayan & Game Changers. He waits til everyone's asleep and he goes on an idol hunt and even despite Nick showing up for a moment, he maneuvers the situation and manages to get an idol! But there's more, Sarah brings out her own fashion show, emphasizing that while Tony plays hard strategically, Sarah is better socially. Meanwhile, Tony decides to keep playing hard and going for a double agent type idea. He speaks with Jeremy and his alliance, talking about working with them and Jeremy and Michele buy it, easily. But Kim & Denise don't. They see right through it and now, Tony is their target #1.

Survivor: Winners At War Episode 9
Wow! What an amazing episode of Survivor tonight! First off, great work blindsiding Wendell, that was a great move. Though, naturally, Nick & Michele were pissed. Nick is officially out for blood and while Michele wanted Wendell gone, she hated being left out. Though, Tony lets Nick & Michele know not to let it get to them, since anger will put people off. But, this could be good for Adam, who uses Michele's anger to maybe gain her trust. He lets her in on the possibility that inside Jeff's podium at Tribal Council could be an idol. He sees something similar enough on the podium to Denise's hidden immunity idol. So, it could be or not be.
