Was the suggestion about a breasts/art article a joke? Because I would gladly read such an article.

in a genre where game developers are trying harder than ever to ensure that even the most casual gamer is never confused or lost, Ice-Pick’s attitude here is very much appreciated.

You might as well buy the English version and torrent the Russian.
You cannot “steal” what you cannot have legally anyway. No sale (of Russian version) for developers anyway. But by buying the English version you evening things out :).

Grabbed it off Steam with the sale and proceeded to somehow spent four hours with no break. This thing is just fabulous and, frankly, it should be a wake-up call to all these publishers that just keep funding and churning out the same old formulaic things.

Heads up, The Void is on offer in the Steam sale – 50% off. I’ll be getting this either as a Christmas present or as a gift from me to me =) It’s the kind of game that should be bought and played, if only to encourage more developers to try new things.

Also, engaging with the community = totally win. Go The LxR et al.

I’m ordering this right now just because you’re so present in the community.

Mabye because of the glowing review too. Just a little.

Okay, when you told me that you could kill the Sisters, I was sold.

NOT because I want to, necessarily, but because just from what I’ve read on this game, they seemed like something completely immutable. Allowing that kind of choice, that kind of subversion of the game’s principal assumptions… That is incredible.

The date has unfortunately been pushed back to 23rd October (one week later). Hopefully (barring postal strike), you’ll get your copy on Friday!

I just got an email from amazon saying that they've not received stock from the supplier so there's gonna be a delay. Anyone else got any problems with play or mamba?

@ The LxR

So this isn’t really related to The Void, but I had something I rather wanted to ask about. I’m writing a script in which a kid is traveling on his own through Barcelona, and I started to write a moment where he discovers a map of the transit system – and on it, someone has outlined the body of a Bull, where the bus lines seem to create its skeleton and arteries.

It took me a little while to realize what I’d done, but it should be pretty obvious to you; I’d essentially just ripped off Pathologic. So it threw me into a bit of a fit, because on the one hand I thought it was an image that meshed perfectly with the story and the experience of a city that seems very much to be alive… but on the other hand, it felt like plagiarism.

I was just wondering what you might think about it.

Too bad it’s only available for Windows :-(

Word just came from Mamba Games: free delivery is extended for another week until the 10th of October, which will help you benefit from it, especially if you live in America or Australia. :)
