Okay, I've added it to the list, so hopefully someone will review it soon. *eyes Frodo*
Anyway, I'll leave this thread for a while, before closing it. (since it's no longer a project in the making).

Furthermore, it is my opinion that Carthage must be destroyed.

After playing this game, I'll say I really like the game's style.
Though one point of attention for the future is that the English dialogue is somewhat rough.
Well, unless that was intentional, of course.

I downloaded it last night, but it took a long time. I have broadband, but it still took over 5 hours. Did anyone else have that problem?
So far, it seems very dark, and atmospheric, and CREEPY.

Well, I think I got it down in about three hours, so I guess I was lucky.
I agree that it seems very atmospheric and very filmic as well. The music is also great, IMO, and really adds to the atmosphere.
I also agree with Doubler that the English is somewhat rough, but it's perfectly understandable, so it's no big problem.
So far I like it very much, but I've yet to finish it. It looks like you did a great job, Gord.
@Frodo: Should I sign you up for the game, then? And will you be participating in the contest as well? If so, you should probably say so in the contest thread (just to do it by the book ).

That's just perfect, Frodo (in case you hadn't noticed ).
@Gord: Can I ask you how long it has taken you to make the game? I can tell that your first post at AGS is about a year old, but I'm assuming you've been working on it for a bit longer.
Anyway, I'm really impressed so far. I can't wait to go back and try some of the other options in the game.

Gotta say Gord, I love this game so far.
It's kinda a cross between Blair Witch and Silent Hill.
And that music gets me really on edge. It's so creepy.
The night \ dark atmospheres are just brilliant.
A lot of the scenes look hand painted. How did you do that?
It was a long download - but it's well worth it.
Hope to see many more games from you in the future.

Hehehe, thank you very much The game took me about 1,5 year to make.
And how I did the cutscenes: All the game graphics are screenshots from the Half-Life 1 engine (though I mapped the environment by myself). They didn't look so good when they were raw, but they looked like hand painted after using Adobe Photoshop.

Indeed this is quite the game got to make sure to get this when I see my friend next time around since the download is just a tad too big for me, good job man, from what I can tell it looks wicked.

Yes; it is reported by many people that a bug occurs after you don't kill the baby, and then shoot Burak's dark past in the mirror. I still couldn't find how to fix it in the game yet; but I have released a saved game that can be counted as a patch.

Thanks for that save game Gord - I'll check it out later tonight.
This is one of the best games I've played. I love the flashback scenes
It's really scary. I can't wait to see what happens at the end.
And then I want to go back to the start and use different choices.
Thankyou for giving us this game!
EDIT
Finished the game! Wow, what a game. There are some bugs, but the game is so good I couldn't stop. My nerves are shot.

Thanks to everyone Smiley By the way, I have got an idea: I will release a special version of Lost In The Nightmare. It will be a "deluxe" version; more than just a v1.2 thingy.
*All bugs will be fixed.
*Some new scenes will be added to the game endings; because I think they were too short.
*And the most important; some new extra playable stories about Lost In The Nightmare will be added. Think it like the "Born From a Wish" story in the Silent Hill 2: The Restless Dreams. For example, you will be able to play as the Lost One in one of the extra stories in the new version of LitN.
Also you will be able to download these extra stories 'apart' if you had downloaded the first version of the game; so you won't have to download another 88 MB to play the extra stories.
What do you think about this?
