Of course the title is blantently ripped off from the Warhammer Roleplay adventure ‘Carrion up the Reik’.

As a fresh-faced and optimistic 13-year-old, I wrote three paragraphs of a story called Carrion Camping, which described a scene in which Sid James and Bernard Bresslaw’s corpses failed to respond to Barbara Windsor’s tits. She resorted to pressing them really hard into Sid’s face, trying to solicit his trademark “kyakyakyak”. It was erotically crackling.

This was 1987, so if that’s before Carrion Up The Reik, I demand my Games Workshop five pounds.

Bah. This here reeks of greyscales, rather than the distinguished purity of black and white. The washed scales of grey are for lesser men. Lesser, I say!

I took it as a Carry On pun.

Awesome idea for a game, though! Very original, and pretty sweetly presented.

Or, you know, somewhere else.

I think I can remember a few games that just look grey or brownish. Most FPSs tend to look like that.

Hi Jocho, it’s a lot more stable than it was, but if you’re that concerned, try it in a week or two when we’ve done a few more fixes?

Thanks,

The bugs scare me away a bit, but the black-and-white and the zombies sounds like a selling point.

“Herbert West, Reanimator” is not one of HP Lovecraft’s best written stories, but it’s probably the silliest, which is why so many people love it.

There’s an adventure game that’s black and white with splashes of colour. Something like The Lost Crown? Anyways, despite it’s good reviews it’s a god damn abomination due to the voice acting.

I do have fond memories of a Thief mod/level done with black & white textures instead of colour, can’t remember if it was the first or second game.
