Penumbra: 2006 Tech Demo
« on: September 17, 2007, 01:46 AM »
while BioShock is making waves on the mainstream gaming, i found this independent project with a similar horror theme whose full game has been picked up by a publisher but the tech demo is available as a free download..

Penumbra is an adventure horror game, in which the player finds himself in an underground base on Greenland, searching for his lost father. Unlike a classic FPS, the player interacts with his surroundings, exploring and solving puzzles in order to escape alive.

I've played this.
I rarely play games, but after I bought a decent laptop, I ventured into a few game downloads.
Penumbra is truly amazing, given it is free.
As an aspiring web developer/designer, it is a constant struggle to cope with my ADHD + Hypomania/Bipolar Disorder.

The slow growth of my web dev projects is eclipsed by my patience, understanding and desire to learn AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE as I slowly progress.
