Greetings All!

Long time no post; hopefully some of you will remember me.

My name is Raymond Jacobs, owner of Ethereal Darkness Interactive (EDIGames).

And in 2009 (which seems like forever ago) we released STATIC: Investigator Training

a horror adventure that was well received by the Gameboomers community.

(note: for those of you who enjoyed STATIC:IT and like steam, it is worth noting that STATIC has been released on steam here:
http://store.steampowered.com/app/354720/)

This summer we've been working on our next title 96 Mill, a horror adventure in a similar vein as STATIC,

Where you are tasked with exploring and rigging an abandoned mill complex (with a mysterious past) for demolition.

Check out the teaser trailer here.

We're getting close to finishing up and would love to offer some folks free beta keys in exchange for hearing what they

think about the game and its' narrative.


If you're interested feel free to message me on the forum with a valid email address (used for managing ownership of the key).

or drop me an email via: raymond@edigames.com - and we'll get you set up with a beta key.


Once you have your key, you can play the game here: https://edigames.com/96Mill


Thanks in advance!

-Raymond Jacobs

Owner,
Ethereal Darkness Interactive

I'm happy to announce that we're just about out of beta!

We'll be producing another build this evening and then activating beta keys of several additional members, to get a fresh look at the game.

...and we know what comes after beta smile


I would like to call out several members of the GameBoomers community that have been instrumental in testing.

-Winfrey

-Jarkeld

They have both been so responsive, clear and constructive in their feedback; 96 Mill is a better game from their contribution.

As is custom we've immortalized them in the credits under 'Testing & Q/A'

Thanks guys!

Greetings All,

Whew, it has been some long nights these past weeks, and the old 80/20 rule sure applies.

20% of the work takes 80% of the time.

But persistence has paid off!

We have the product page set up for 96 Mill here:

https://edigames.com/app/96Mill

and we have just release build 363, which is our first release candidate.


Our next steps will be to issue a few remaining beta keys, so we get some tests from players who never experienced it through alpha/beta stage.

And we will start issuing review keys to various youtube channels that have expressed interest, and other review sites.

(psst. if anyone at GameBoomers would like a review copy just let me know)

Thanks again to all of the testers and fan community at GB!

Hi EDI,

Thanks for the update on the progress of the game. Good luck and hope that it continue to run smoothly regardless of the 80/20 rule. smile

I just received an email from EDI Games inviting my pre-order of this game at a special price.

Was it ever reviewed here at Gameboomers ??

And does it require Steam ??

Anyone know ??

Cheers.

It is not customary to post a review before a games release Mad. As you can see from the post above yours, we just received it a few days as well. Our reviewers have likely not started it yet.

I believe it's Steam. Lets wait for Raymond to answer.

Hi Mad!

To answer your question, no 96 MILL doesn't require steam.

It uses HTML5 technology and runs in your web browser on Windows, OSX, iPad, Android, Surface, toaster (if it has a decent web browser).



We're currently pursuing a steam release with our publisher,
we'll let GB know when that goes live.


Thanks! and let me know if I can answer any other questions smile
