It doesn't look like it. Whether or not we are included in GOG sales is up to them.

Oh. Well, hopefully you'll be in one of the time limited sales then.

While we don't get into as many GOG sales as I would like, they do include us here and there.

It's always fun when I need to use my start fire cheat. In today's case, I needed to test that a character with a vampire mutation would lose the day light penalty when in a house, but regain it if the house burned down.

I first read small review of Depths of Peril in Igromania magazine(in 2008),I was in anticipation and desire to try this game .Then saw it in one of the stores(localized by Akella),and bought it. It was interesting and exciting to deal with all the mechanics and quests,or reading books and guard monster descriptions. Darkness of Light Mod musics also brings needed atmospere in adventures too.But sometime later i find out that late patches don't work on my version,so i bought GOG version. Since then i always continue fight for leadership over Jorvik from time to time . And as we all now know it was only first great step for the future.

Shadow, I've been wondering -- how did you get the improved bump mapped textures for the creatures in Zombasite? Did you commission a new artist to do them?

If you mean the older monsters, Steve Hornback updated them. He didn't change the original model or diffuse textures, just added normal and specular textures. Steve was full-time during Drox and most of Zombasite.

If you mean the new zombie monsters, Patrick Boisvert did those. Patrick is one of the awesome contractors that has worked with us since Depths of Peril.

My informal favorite Soldak game poll was interesting. For our fully released games it came out to about 3.3% Zombasite, 10% Depths of Peril, 16.7% Din's Curse, and 70% Drox Operative.

To tell you the truth I like all the games of your Studio,even,alas, not included in the list Kivis Underworld(though it is a slightly different concept of the game).
Just as they say before and the trees were higher and the grass is greener,but it was with the Depths of Peril began my acquaintance with your games,and adventure begins:
-Fight for leadership in Jorvik(Depths of Peril)
-Fight army of dark elfs with different characters(In Kivi's)
-Save hundreds of villages: to redeem yourself at first and then became Champion of Din(Din's Curse)
-Travel through space in coop with my brother in thousands of systems in search of anomalies,enemies,allies(Drox Operative)
-Trying to survive while zombie threat conquers the world,but two of my characters have opposite goals-necromancer hybrid wanna spread it,while dark knight want to stop it.(Zombasite(spend in it more time then in others )-its really too bad she didn't get the fame she deserved)
-Din's Legacy still in development but it quite intresting with different scenarios and mutations,sometimes its bring interesting adventures that continues itself through many maps.
