(There are other companies with similar types of offerings out there, so, if you’re not in the Kentucky area, you can likely find places like this in your area. I’m going into…

When video games grew popular, it was assumed that people would play these animated games when they were children (when children already play a lot of games) and then grow out of them. But we began to learn that people didn’t grow out of them, but instead craved more complex mysteries and stories as they aged. This led to pivotal games like Myst and Rivven, which started the modern video game trend of well-created story and making your players use their brains, not just their reflexes.

It’s hard to be a modern creative person without having been exposed to conversations about the “meta-game” or the “meta-content” that’s behind modern creative works. This is made all the more confusing due to the fact that the concept behind how it’s now use in New Media is a hybrid of the noun version of this word, the adjective version, and something else. The French have a phrase called “Je ne sais quoi” which literally translated means “I know not what”—as in, there’s something else about what I’m talking about, but I can’t put my finger on it.

DGM Presents: The Sometimes Adventures of the Devil and Death [STORY/MEDIA]
This mind bending tale is birthed from a drunken bender and one night stand between the disreputable questions: “What if the Devil owned an Instant Custard factory?” and “What happens when the Devil’s old friend Death drops by for a chat?” Everything that proceeds from this bastard lineage is unexpected, shocking, and highly entertaining! As such, it was the perfect choice for our DarkestGoth Thanksgiving special! [In addition, as this was part of an iOS exclusive collection, this is the premiere of this story for both traditional computers and for all mobile platforms!]
