I'm guessing people who grew up on Sanitarium are finally old enough to create their own games?

I'm tempted to get ROM because of the heavy Snatcher vibes, but damn, that art direction just rubs me the wrong way. All the characters look like ridiculous cutesy caricatures. While Snatcher captured that 80's cyberpunk style superbly, basically copying Blade Runner and Terminator, this looks like it copies furry anime.
It's adventure game news so I don't know what the problem is?
Oh that's fine you posted that, I just thought the game was.... Wierd.

The furry bit is actually explained in the game and it's not the "lol, I identify as a cat! RAWR" kind of explanation

That early 90s sound. I miss that particular sound, it's the digital equivalent of vinyl for me

Lost Horizon 2 was stealth released, apparently it's not very good.

That's the point, it can be done cheaply and profitably.
At least it seems to look more or less the same as the original game. As long as they don't fuck it up somehow, I'll buy it.

Hunting Shadows: The Making of Gabriel Knight
Chapter 1: http://episodiccontentmag.com/2015/09/10/gabrielknight_ch1/
Chapter 2: http://episodiccontentmag.com/2015/10/13/gabrielknight_ch2/
I've yet to read but looks like an interesting read. The author David Craddock is the guy who wrote the book on history of Diablo and Blizzard North.
The blog has other interesting looking interviews and articles. (Making of FTL, interview with Tom Hall etc.)

The Last Crown: Midnight Horror on STEAM http://store.steampowered.com/app/291770
For the few people here (myself included) that likes Jonathan Boakes' games (Dark Fall, The Lost Crown). It's only $5.00 US. It's basically a small "re-introduction to the ‘Crown’ universe, and the people of Saxton”.
I like the Lost Crown game <3 So fuck yeah! Don't know how I missed this though. Should have gotten this to play on Halloween....

There is no God.
Wonder how they would have dealt with Gaiman's gentleman's agreement with DC that he would be the only person to write Death's dialogue in all her appearances
