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:
“Other nations have tried to check ... the fulfillment of our manifest destiny to overspread the continent allotted by Providence for the free development of our yearly multiplying millions.”
—John Louis O’Sullivan (1813–1895)
“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)
“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)
