Thatjenlynch: Unrecorded Night scripts are likely to be published by myself and my siblings as a way to offer what could not be realized, to those who would have loved it. I beg everyone to wait for this release and not hunt down what will likely be unauthorized versions and would soil the beautiful work Dad created. Like many millions of people, we are great fans of our fatherโ€™s work, and wish to see it shared and celebrated in every good way. We know there is a wanting, and we feel the need to fulfill Dadโ€™s gifts as best as possible.

I hope everyone out there in retrogaming land enjoys playing my games, if you have. Sometimes I feel like an outlier, a niche within a niche, since my games don't get tons of attention compared to others.
But I'll just go on doing my best making my little games. And I hope they are enjoyed ๐Ÿ™‚ #nesdev

In 1999 the internet was microscopic... and 81,000 downloads was unreal.

Steve McCallโ€™s early horror fangame blew up on Download .com and became a cult classic.
