Four college students, worried about paying for their last year, go on a hunt for buried Civil War gold.
Two-Thirds of the Rough Cut Done
I’m pretty happy with the editing I’ve done so far on Treasure Hunt, having reached page 56 (out of 84). I haven’t rendered what I’ve done so far, but the editing software says it’s running a bit past 49 …
