I thought that Dark Corners of the Earth was a fantastic game. Am I the only one? I’m quite saddened to hear that the planned follow-up is languishing publisherless in the unfathomable gulf of the spaces between the spaces we know.

I chuckle to myself every time I think of the balance/jumping sequences and the fact that the protagonist is acrophobic.

Hee.

“You Rule!”

“No, YOU RULE!”

“No, no, no, You RULE!”

“I insist, you, sir, are the one who rules!”

“By the lineage of your parents’ parents’ parents, you are indeed of Noble blood!”

There, I saved us some time. :)

Thanks for the compliment. I had fun writing up ‘Shadows on the Wall’, but yours had more crunchy details.

In any case, the point stands: loving on your work, sir. Keep it up.

Thanks, Michael! Argh, I wish I’d seen your “Dreading the Shadows on the Wall” Escapist article when I wrote “Cthulhu: Why so difficult?” You recognized Eternal Darkness: Sanity’ Requiem as a perfectly Lovecraftian game, whereas I missed it completely….
