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:
“The work of adult life is not easy. As in childhood, each step presents not only new tasks of development but requires a letting go of the techniques that worked before. With each passage some magic must be given up, some cherished illusion of safety and comfortably familiar sense of self must be cast off, to allow for the greater expansion of our distinctiveness.”
—Gail Sheehy (20th century)
“Men are only as good as their technical development allows them to be.”
—George Orwell (19031950)
“And then ... he flung open the door of my compartment, and ushered in Ma young and lovely lady! I muttered to myself with some bitterness. And this is, of course, the opening scene of Vol. I. She is the Heroine. And I am one of those subordinate characters that only turn up when needed for the development of her destiny, and whose final appearance is outside the church, waiting to greet the Happy Pair!”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (18321898)
