Just posting these to see how they work out in front of an audience. I know there are some issues:

Slurring (tired/sick)
Mumbling (tired/sick)
Split into two parts (wanted one test vid, but I didn't want stupid sped-up sections)
Weird screen size (recorded at 1280x960 instead of 1440x900 for some reason)
General speech mess-ups (unscripted/new to this/tired/sick)
Tired
Sick

This is my first time, so I know that I can do better in the future. I'd just like some criticism and advice for how I should continue (or if I should continue at all.) Facepunch is the best place for criticism. I've just seen a lot of Black Plague stuff being posted around lately and Overture hasn't been getting enough love. Hope you enjoy.

And yes, I know my own username.

Beautiful game, makes me want to get it.

Anyways, the videos weren't that bad. Are there any more?

[Genkaz]

I am most definitely quite interested in their next upcoming game.

Good luck on your LP, I would watch but I am a Helloween4545 fan.

It was pretty good, I would like you to make more.

It's going to be funny watching you freak out

FYI Walkhroughs with commentary are called "Let's Plays".

I don't want to steal that "name."

I can't compete with that. I don't have the accent.

Penumbra is the scariest game I've ever played, it's such a psychological mind-fuck. I hate it like an alcoholic hates alcohol.

Parts 3 and 4 are now live.

You have to play more games.

Not saying that penumbra sucks or anything, I own all games.
But people falsely comprehend the story as mysterious and a psychological mindfuck, when really it just makes no sense, practically it's non existent.

There's an outline of something which resembles a story, but that's it; it's not fleshed out or anything.
All places you visit in the game have no significance, it's just one creepily disguised puzzle after another.
