I received a letter yesterday from Bryan Wiegele, Indie developer and creator of the Delaware St. John series. Many of us have played the first three games in the series and have enjoyed them very much. Bryan is also the designer of the original Inherent Evil adventure game.

Unfortunately, Bryan is putting the Delaware St. John games and the upcoming Inherent Evil 2: Dark Whispers on hold for the foreseeable future.






I hope Bryan knows that we appreciate how he provided us with hours of entertainment, challenge, and intriguing moments of terror. We wish him all the best, and hope that the future will mean a return to adventure game development sooner than he currently expects.

It is always heartbreaking to hear of production stopping on an anticipated game but especially disheartening when it is one of our own.

Bryan, I hope that you will be able to follow your dreams and make a living at it.

Ana

That's a shame. It really is.

So sad.....Good luck Bryan in the future.

Bryan, thanks for letting us know. Life sometimes gets in the way of our dreams, but hopefully, sooner than you expect, you'll be back on track with yours

Very sorry to read this:

Bryan in the future..Thank You again for the games you did develop..Hope later on maybe you will change your mind..

Bryan, I'm so sad to hear this news. I hope the problems get resolved and that we see many more of your games in the future.

Thank you Bryan, for the exciting and entertaining games you have made. You have made many of us very happy, and eager to continue playing adventure games.

Best wishes, and I hope to see some games of yours again in the future.

Bryan, you have tremendous talent and I hope it is not a long time before we see more of your work. You've always been so responsive to your fans, and such a nice guy that it is especially hard to hear this news. Thanks for all the work you have done in bringing us lots of happy hours playing. You'll be missed.

Bryan,

Know that you have brought great games, and joy, to many adventurers. You are appreciated and you will be missed.

Is very sad, i love the Delaware St. John Series...

Love Maria

That's a great shame. I loved Inherent Evil, and particularly the Delaware games, and was looking forward to the 4th instalment of DSJ. Best wishes for the future, Bryan, I hope things work out the way you would like them to.

Thank you for the hours of enjoyment you have given us in playing your games. We all hope to see you soon Bryan. Judy

Bryan, we're all sad that there won't be more of your games any time soon--best of luck with your future plans...

This is such sad news. I was really, really, really looking forward to Inherent Evil 2. Lots of luck, Bryan!! Your contributions to the gaming world will be sorely missed!

Dawn

We will miss your games, but good luck on whatever you do. I have all of your games and hope you will be able to create some others in the future.

Good on you for trying Bryan! For doing it part-time you achieved quite a bit.

I hope other indie developers will benefit from your experience.

That's the thing I don't like about game series, they're never finished. Just recently got the third game too.

Shucks! I'd just gotten into the DSJ games, too. I still have to play the third one after I finish Lost Crown so I at least have that to look forward to.

Bryan - sending positive energy to help create the opportunities you need to continue these projects that are obviously dear to you.

Good luck to you Bryan, I've really enjoyed your games and was really anticipating Inherent Evil 2.

Hi .... That goes for me, too !!

Cheers.

Mad

I second everything everyone else said.
Sorry
Good Luck,
Shelly

Our hearts and thoughts are with you, dearest Bryan. I hope and wish the best for you in all your endeavors.

Good Luck to you Bryan. I know that any endeavors you do in the future will be a success. You are very talented. Hopefully you will be able to return creating games sometime in the future.

Donna

Please can you pass it on to Bryan that we appreciate & love Delaware & Inherent Evil. Hope he has a good rest & then cannot resist returning to programming ..

Bryan,
I have bought all your series and was looking forward to the newest one. Sometimes someone has to quit what they love doing to see how much they miss working on it. I Hope this is the case and before the end of this year, we will hear work as continued on the newest game.

I sure hope this was an april fool's joke

Hi Elven -- not a joke.

sad to hear...I have all three games and will miss future games. Hope you get back to it when you can. Please let us know.

Joy

This is very sad news indeed - I really liked the three Delaware games and I anticipated Vol. 4.

I really love these games! I was fortunate enough to beta test the first 2 of them for Win98 compatibility. You will be missed....

I am completely bummed out! The Delaware games were fantastic and I was hoping another one would be out soon! My heart would race whenever I was in a chase scene and had to get to safety - I will miss that excitement!
