the putrid infection is spreading

Keep moving // it is impossible to touch
the flesh will melt, the eyes will roll and darken as vision becomes unseeing
movement surrounding
a frail hand to grasp
pulls away

minutes turned years becoming ashen-faced as the walls
carving lines into shrouded skin
shred away as rabid and murderous as the wretched hands themselves;

no breath to define life.

yet?

Eugh... creepy  :ohnoes:

It's good to know (I think...) that you're still working on this level. There aren't a whole lot of horror-themed levels around and this shows a hell of a lot of promise.

That certainly conveys a sense that this will be a lot creepier than I had previously thought, though it is very vague and hard to derive an image from.  Perhaps that can be a good thing if it is a puzzle that unwinds in the game. 

By the way, your "The People We Never Met" link is down.  :(

I can't wait for this level, it looks awesome. One question, though: what does the Cyrillic text on the title screen say? To me, it looks like ИСПОРЧТЧНВТИ, which in turn looks like random gibberish. Care to shed some light on this?

It's ИСПОРЧЕННЫЙ, which is the masculine form of "spoiled" or "corrupted" in Russian. (native speaker here)

Bingo.

Just to let you know, I'm overhauling a substantial part of this level to meet with a new standard I've adopted, including the audio portion, which is now roughly 40 minutes of industrial/dark ambient and  accompanying sound effects.

I hope this won't be abandoned at some point, because it just looks too good not to be released.

So how is the work going? Haven't been very much updating going on here. Sure hope it's not abandoned! I was really looking forward to this.

Ooh, this is probably the best horror based Knytt Stories level I've seen.
