Reminiscence

That's a page I found of David talking about creating Black Shades. What I found most interesting was the conclusion:

This contest was a good exercise in having a deadline and actually finishing a game; generally I work on a game for a long time and gradually lose steam until I am just not interested any more. Then, I start a new one. The short deadline forces us to actually finish the game before we get too sick of it, which is helpful just for the experience and because now there are 40 more Mac-only games out there to play in my spare time. (Editor’s Note: One entry, The Belt, was cross-platform.) My next game will most likely be a fighting game with gameplay based loosely on Oni but in a very different setting.


A fighting game with gameplay based loosely on Oni but in a very different setting...look at what it became.

It was just neat to find something like this from so long ago.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Rosen_(rabbi)

Another thing I happened to come across is the existence of another David Rosen, who is the former Chief Rabbi of Ireland. His website name is http://www.rabbidavidrosen.net. I found this funny, because it contains the word "rabbid". Rabbids are, as many of us will already know, anthropomorphic rabbits who served as the primary antagonists in the recent titles of the Rayman series.

I...I think this other David Rosen may actually be a rabbid disguising himself as a human.

That so needs to be added to Lugaru: Overgrowth as a rare document.
What you found is Truly a Relic :)
