    My father doesn't eat sweets. He has a very healthy diet - whole grains, vegetables, etc. Never had a cavity nor gum disease. Because of that he never went to the dentist to have a…

    I have been working on a game as a side project for 10 years now. Why such a long time? It started when I was freelancing and carried on through full-time jobs, a marriage and now …
