Despite a heavy snowstorm, we managed to get to Greece alive – if several hours late. Even driving from the airport to Thessaloniki turned out to be diffcult, thanks to the barbarians flooding the streets after a football game. Then we collapsed in bed and slept for 12 hours. We’ll …
Writing from my father-in-law’s computer. Have found out that the only way to kill the evil thing on our computers is to format everything and reinstall the OS. On the positive side of things, the Phenomenon 32 files should all be OK. So I’m setting a release date. This one …
So, I was ready to release Phenomenon 32 tomorrow. It just needed a few more hours of work. I was extremely happy. Hell, I even had some of the publicity stuff done. Then my computer got infected with a most seriously nasty trojan. Remember when my computer got hacked a …

It just became possible, for the very first time, to (theoretically) play through the entire plot of Phenomenon 32. There’s still bits missing left and right, including a tiny bit of voice acting that will hopefully happen in the next couple of days. The game is currently in that phase …
