One of the projects I am working on is for a game called Forsaken Dungeons .  There's a piece I wrote for the puzzle-focussed areas of the game that I dubbed "True Mettle." Your role is that of a band of brothers, fighting to restore positive balance to their homeland. As if it weren't enough that they must face hordes of beasties, they must solve intricate challenges of whit, as well.  I decided a fitting name for the piece would be "True Mettle" because as a person heavily involved in war strategy and martial arts as a passion, I see the value of a sharp mind as superior.
