Development
The game was heavily influenced by The Ballad of Flannan Isle by Wilfrid Wilson Gibson. Other influences include the Doctor Who television serial Horror of Fang Rock, and the ghost stories Moon Dial by Helen Cresswell and A Warning to the Curious by M.R. James.
In December, 2009, a Director's Cut was released that included enhanced graphics, effects, music, and sound as well as more ghosts and creatures to generally heighten the mood and ambiance to provide a scarier atmosphere. The interface however remained largely unchanged. A couple of puzzles were also made a little easier. The story was also enhanced, with the addition of a few new characters and ghosts.

Famous quotes containing the word development:
“As a final instance of the force of limitations in the development of concentration, I must mention that beautiful creature, Helen Keller, whom I have known for these many years. I am filled with wonder of her knowledge, acquired because shut out from all distraction. If I could have been deaf, dumb, and blind I also might have arrived at something.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“To be sure, we have inherited abilities, but our development we owe to thousands of influences coming from the world around us from which we appropriate what we can and what is suitable to us.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
“Theories of child development and guidelines for parents are not cast in stone. They are constantly changing and adapting to new information and new pressures. There is no “right” way, just as there are no magic incantations that will always painlessly resolve a child’s problems.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
