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:
“If you complain of people being shot down in the streets, of the absence of communication or social responsibility, of the rise of everyday violence which people have become accustomed to, and the dehumanization of feelings, then the ultimate development on an organized social level is the concentration camp.... The concentration camp is the final expression of human separateness and its ultimate consequence. It is organized abandonment.”
—Arthur Miller (b. 1915)
“... work is only part of a man’s life; play, family, church, individual and group contacts, educational opportunities, the intelligent exercise of citizenship, all play a part in a well-rounded life. Workers are men and women with potentialities for mental and spiritual development as well as for physical health. We are paying the price today of having too long sidestepped all that this means to the mental, moral, and spiritual health of our nation.”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
“Dissonance between family and school, therefore, is not only inevitable in a changing society; it also helps to make children more malleable and responsive to a changing world. By the same token, one could say that absolute homogeneity between family and school would reflect a static, authoritarian society and discourage creative, adaptive development in children.”
—Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)
