Same monster found from Penumbra in early test? maybe - darkely - 01-24-2013

I was watching a video from the super_secrect.rar file and I though "Isn't this a monster from Penumbra?"

It is the monster from Penumbra. It's a placeholder for the monsters OR FG used it as their monster, until their game concept changed (like the name changed from Lux Tenebras to Unknown to finally, Amnesia.).

I'm pretty sure it was just a placeholder, as said, considering the video footage seemed to be from pretty early in the development and they probably hadn't the models prepared yet.

Hey dude, your profile name is funny. Potato.

That first link with the image scared the fuck out of me.

And I remember that room. But he wasn't there! Thank god! Big Grin
And I also guess it was just a placeholder! Smile

It's stated in this video that it is a "placeholder from penumbra"

I have seen a few custom maps with the old penumbra zombie... They must have used the same source, And they forgot to remove the penumbra enemy file...?

No, us modders have moved the monster files from Penumbra over to Amnesia, they're not included there from the start.

Do remember that this was very early on in development. They were probably still designing the other monsters
