Very, VERY cool stuff! I played your games since the Penumbra "sample" you released way back when.

I enjoyed the game, and wish you luck on your future projects.

A few tiny criticisms, though:

1. Dang, Danial's VA was pretty awful. He conveyed a bit too much emotion during the diary's, it almost made me laugh instead of feeling disturbed.

2. I feel Penumbra's more modern setting contributed to the game's creepiness factor. This one kinda made me feel like I'm walking through a "Haunted House" in some carnival at times.

Still! Great games, and looking forward to more!

And aren't haunted houses/castles scarier ?

Well, some people might consider overreacted scenes to be fake most of the times.
But I think it does something that other horror-games dont.

Don't get me wrong, Resident Evil is a great game, but most of these games are highly great because of there cinematic moments.

I didn't notice anything about Daniel's voice. Besides, he's not supposed to be a narrator like Morgan Freeman, but a regular joe who collapses through his knees when he sees something scary

To be honest it just reinforced the fact that he was a bit scared and desperate. At least it had some emotion behind it, most voice overs are souless...

wow congratx man
