...but The Commonplace Book Project is pretty neat. It's an attempt to take random incomplete ideas jotted down in Lovecraft's notes and turn them into IF games. So far the only one I've tried is Ecdysis which is short but totally Lovecraftian. Believe it or not there is more than one ending.


Ah, yes! That was set up by Peter Nepstad, who has (and continues to) successfully sell a text game he made called 1893: A World's Fair Mystery. He found a lot of alternate channels, like book stores and so forth, to promote his game and has really done quite well. I would have loved to have entered that project. Not that I can "do" Lovecraft well or anything, but it's the kind of neat side project that is fun to develop. I haven't had time to run through any of the games, but I am looking forward to doing so.
