Desert Bridge music linky

Helen has written an interesting post on the (excellent) music she composed for The Strange and Somewhat Sinister Tale of the House at Desert Bridge. And if you click here you can read it. Go on. I’ve got work to do. The final beta is approaching.

Warning

Hello all, As I am switching to a different webhosting package, this website may disappear while I re-upload files or stuff is changed. Just so you know. Helen has already sent me most of the music for the game, and it’s absolutely awesome. You’ve all had to wait a bit …
