Dad's Basement - Episode 3 - Part 3 - Chapter 2:

November 12, 2015

Dad's Basement is a video series from me, Dana, the Dad of the Happy Game Family, wherein I play, show off, and try to convey what was cool about some of my favorite games from yesteryear. I hope you kids appreciate that I'm spending some extra time cutting together all the cool parts! Get off my lawn, unless you're going to mow it for me!

Dad's Basement #3c2 - The Shadow Over Denis Dyack: Paul Caporicci: Re-Animator

Ten Years after Eternal Darkness was released, a new wave of funding and support seemed to become available for makers of forgotten and neglected games and genres. History would write a story of acceptance and success and good press in 2012, while quietly behind the scenes former Silicon Knights people work to launch a company and a crowdfunding project of their own.

Long overdue, part Three of our three-part (plus) series covering Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem and its attempted spiritual successor now is a posthumous survey of the failure of the Kickstarter for Shadow of the Eternals, split into multiple chapters.
