Hi everyone,
to put it mildly, we haven't been as good as we should, about keeping in touch. But we're in the final stretches: the game's being refined rapidly, day by day, and we're looking forward to sharing more — and more frequent — updates with you (Including a trailer) in the weeks to come...

- At the same time, we wrapped our second and final VO recording session — below's a photo of voice actor Jeff Mattas, and a mystery guest...

- DYING.
