A few months ago I had a terrible infection which left me lying around feverish and delirious most of the time. I'd spend my evenings just lying in bed and watching random KZbin videos on my laptop via the autoplay function, all while continously fading in and out of consciousness. At some point I suddenly came back to my senses after being ripped out of a fever dream and for some unexplainable reason I had the "King of Limbo" song stuck in my head. After I reorientated myself in this world I looked over at my laptop and realized that this video has been playing and somehow must have invaded my dreams. It was such a surreal experience and over the next few days I would repeatedly get this song stuck in my mind. Really makes you appreciate what an absurd fever-dream this game is.

There's this human bittersweetness to the ending that's difficult to qualify. It's a bunch of creepy, poorly animated ghouls singing a positive, friendly song to a man stuck in Hell, enthusiastically written and performed by a clearly unusual, possibly unstable man that spent TWENTY YEARS on a passion project nobody cared about but was, regardless, immediately hit with lawsuits, and it also happens to chronicle the fictional aftermath of a real person's death hundreds of years after it occurred. Yet, to me, it also feels like the expression of a lonely person that wanted companionship. So many fucking layers...

crazy idea that explains why the audio resets when you change room: every room is it's own application. when you leave a room the application for that room is closed and a different application for the new room is opened. if this is done for rooms, or at least the audio for each room, it explains why it resets, after all it's a new application. this also seems like a system that would be really prone to crashing, especially if it's done badly, and since this is a daft way to do it in the first place you wouldn't expect a bad idea to be implemented well.

Garbage disposal (thoughing away data buildup) is a difficulty in programming so the invisible war thing feels more like a clever trick like the fallout nv building that is an explosion until it explodes. This game feels more like it made each room a different application in laziness. It's easier to have each room be 1 window while changing background and activatables in the same window would be actual work (and depending on how shit the system it may crash it).

The reason for refusing was the devs antics on their forums, seriously, look into the devs posting history across the internet for a barrel of laughs and deceitful behaviour. What's funnier is how the devs act like they care about the gaming community and other developers, all while stealing their work, these are some real scummy people.

I noticed this too. Interestingly enough, the album was released on 26 September 2007 and Limbo of the Lost only 2 days later according to Wikipedia. Two days is not enough to add something to a game for a physical release I think. It's of course possible the cover was published before release though. It's also conceivable that both the cover and the game ripped off a common source.

0:42 - GameBoomers is a real website - a really old one, but still active - where you can still read the forum threads where people discussed the game after it was first released. That quote, "I was immersed in the experience within the first few minutes", is from a GB reviewer called infernoj13usa, who reviewed a demo of the game in 2007 (before the full game was released), in a post titled "Limbo of The Lost: A First Look". If you can believe it, there was a GB thread ("Is Anybody Playing Limbo of the Lost?") where people (including inferno) were actually singing the game's praises, up until the point where Majestic accidentally turned everyone against them. A user named FABLE, who had helped inferno finish the game, criticized her for giving puzzle hints to other users in the Hints forum (as is standard). Majestic (posting as MSTUDIOS) backed FABLE up in the argument, which soured everyone's attitudes towards them. Then someone exposed that Majestic and FABLE were posting from the same IP address, which was the nail in the coffin, since everyone concluded that FABLE was a sockpuppet created by Majestic (though Majestic maintained he was one of their playtesters and his statements should not reflect on them). But even then, people were more so upset about Majestic than about the game itself; they still seemed to think the game was really good. It's baffling. There were some other threads about the game where people voiced a few criticisms, but mostly they seemed to agree that it was otherwise decent. I don't get it. If it had been the 90s, I might be able to understand, but this was in 2008.

Do you know what the 50 cent army is? Take into consideration the effective power such an organization has, because you have so many bias people being paid to alter the perception of the general public. (Generally speaking, people that either have terrible reputation and or have a ton of money, also will use bots.) In other words, the peer pressure effect exists and works in the favor of those who wish to use it. So, spelling it about a bit more, Majestic wanted to have his point of view validated. Thus he created fake accounts, to pass as real people, to try and have it seem like a crowd of people support his opinion, and also, somewhat legitimize his views.
