A Prequel/Sequel to The Occultist
I've just made available the precursor to The Occultist series, ESPER: The Town on the Edge of Darkness. It technically takes place slightly in the future of the current Occultist games, but it was originally released 20 years ago! It is a little outdated, and I had no idea what I was doing graphically at the time, but it's still a great and creepy story starring everyone's favorite practitioner of the Forbidden Arts.
Once I'm finished with The Occultist: Bridge Under Troubled Water, I'm going to do a remake of this. It wasn't available for about a decade, but I tracked down a copy and released it on my other page, which I lost access to after a series of personal tragedies. The remake is going to have some major differences, and since it was made long before I settled on an official ESPER timeline, it has some major continuity issues with the rest of the series as it stands, but these will all be fixed in the remake.
While you're waiting for the full version of Bridge Under Troubled Water, enjoy this classic gem and the first game in the Occultist series, Old Growth. Leave some comments so I know how I can make the series better for everyone!
