Ok, I'm now at a point where the world-building and narrative in Max Savage gets so complex that I think I'll incorporate an ingame encyclopedia for people who really want to dig in deep. πŸ˜„

The Dark Rites of Arkham by @postmodernadv.bsky.social is a superb Lovecraftian point-and-click adventure from the creator of An English Haunting. It's spooky, fun, and packed with eldritch horrors.

With most gameplay systems completed, I can finally start to work on the main story campaign. (For now you have to imagine the voice-acting. πŸ˜…)

The speech pack for Wing Commander cost about 30 bucks. Should I put the voice-over for Max Savage in a $30 DLC? πŸ˜„

The last great FMV game | Black Dahlia
The last great FMV game | Black Dahlia Everyone's heard of Ripper (the Christopher Walken FMV game), but not many people talk about the game that came AFTER Ripper. It's just as mental as Ripper, even moreso, but also so much better in practically every way. Watch the full 4 hour movie: Original resolution: https://www.youtube.com/watch

Tomorrow at 9 PM CET (12 PST / 3 PM EST) is finally Black Dahlia Night. A 30 min Fair & Balanced Retrospective followed by a 90 min "making of" documentary with interviews w/the cast and crew. It's been 6 months in the making. Come breathe a sigh of relief with me, please.

To my American followers:
Mix one egg with some flour, milk and a sprinkle of salt. Fry it in butter as a pancake. After you flip it put bacon bits and cheese on it and fold it like an omlette. Flip again until cheese is melted. You have KÀseschinken Pfannkuchen. 🀀
