I haven’t been able to find much out about this awesome looking game, but I assume you avoid icebergs?
Legendary Infocom/Suspended Creator Mike Berlyn Needs Your Help!
Science fiction author Mike Berlyn created some of the seminal adventure games that helped define the early game industry. He’s probably best known for Suspended which has the distinction of having possibly the creepiest and most fragile packaging ever made:
I won’t spend too much time talking about his other work, because I need to cut to the chase: Mike needs money for serious medical bills. Sadly it turns out that being legendary or creating works of videogames that people will be discussing in 100 years doesn’t pay the bills, especially when you have cancer.
Talking about how game creators – especially early ones – frequently failed to profit from their work and ended up hosed later is a topic for another day, but if you ever pirated a game, or felt you got more than you paid for a game – any game – or you just want to honor an under-appreciated pioneer of the game industry, right now would be an awesome moment to give back by making a contribution to defer Mike’s expenses: http://www.gofundme.com/skb9h3c.
While I’ve never had the pleasure of meeting Mike, his game Infidel was the first game I ever owned, and Suspended has been a huge inspiration to me in my life. I even have Once and Future, from his short-lived Cascade Mountain Publishing company. His gameography shows that he is a creator who is always striving to innovate, and he’s done some amazing things so far.
So, please, go donate! http://www.gofundme.com/skb9h3c
