A comment on Darkness.

Very nice. Run a spellchecker though, the number of mistakes really broke up the immersion, which is otherwise nicely done:

r/dieing/dying

r/exaustion/exhaustion

r/meaningfull/meaningful

r/fleating/fleeting

r/James'/James (multiple places)

(Couldn't find how to contact author...)

The last correction is a little tricky. Out of the seven occurrences of the string "James'" only two are incorrect. In the other cases "James'" shows ownership, although there's some debate on if it should be "James's" instead.

Sorry for nitpicking, but my name is James, so I've dealt with this a lot over the years. :)

Hey davedx - I never ran spell check, because the piece wasn't really finished. Someone chanced upon it and shared it before I was even done with the design.

I've got a couple things that need my attention right now, but I'll put in those spell checks ASAP. Thanks!

No problem! Yeah, it sometimes happens that people stumble across things that aren't finished and post them up here. I think it's a pretty nice signal you're doing something interesting though!
