Jellyfish, why did it have to be jellyfish?
I hope you all enjoyed the depressing conclusion to our inevitable descent into madness. I gotta say, the squelching noises during the fight scene made it all slightly too visceral to remain comfortable.

Y'know, I always think that horror is the hardest thing to pull off in RPGs. I'd not attempt it myself because I don't think it would go well at all, but this was really compelling and pretty unsettling. I think the main actress's limbs becoming detached was the worst thing for me. Well done Sean (Shawn?)!

Yes, horror can be a tricky thing: terror is easy, gore can schlock well, but actual unsettlement is difficult. I consistently just reuse all of the things I've found that have worked before — self-plagairism is the way to go |

That was pretty awesome. For once the most terrifying thing wasn't Alex's character (love ya, dude, but seriously. Your characters are the worst.) Sounds a bit glib but it was genuinely unsettling - especially the end, where everyone's trapped in an alien dimension. It's one of those themes that I find genuinely disturbing.

I think Alex is incapable of not playing an awful doctor who the other characters bully...
