I want to think that the game actually keeps count of how many times I play, because it seems to deliberately get more specific, however this may just be my imagination ... I like how the intrusive thoughts are framed in a mundane environment, it's really quite ingenious ... Observors with a close eye will also notice that the view will shift from first person to second person rather seamlessly in the beginning ( "I" vs. "you" ) I don't know whether this is deliberate or accidental since tense also shifts as well. The whole experience is not unlike an abstract painting. I'm now in the process of keeping a record of the words to see if I can crack the message, but there may not be a whole one to crack, unfortunately ...

It gave me the same forboding, dirty feeling as The Path did. Disturbing and compelling, rather like a book in which you espy someone else's thoughts and you don't feel quite 'right' about 'em. Thanks. Do you live in Dundee then? This is some brainfucked craziness, Mr Lavelle. It gave me the same forboding, dirty feeling as The Path did.

(OS is the main thing, I guess) it *could* be that your monitor doesn't support 640x480 resolution; I can try out a number of things if you want to investigate, but I don't know of any particular things that might be causng it. i haven’t heard of anyone getting such a thing. could you tell me something about your basic set-up?
