I was saddened to see it begin to appear in actual games. Christopher Brendel is better than that and has a yeoman's grasp of story and a fine touch for macabre atmosphere. He should follow those instincts wherever they might lead and not worry about the content awful that emerges. That way lays his strength. As awful the game chugged awful along toward its finale, I was simultaneously fascinated and discouraged. There was so much potential in Shady Brook, the music, the Gabriel-Knight-meets-David-Lynch atmosphere, a few of the characters (at least a third could have been cut), the whimsical and oddly pleasing voice acting ... but the lackluster gameplay dragged it all down. The puzzles were stale at best, more like placeholders for more organic and clever versions.
More disturbing were the screens offering a censored mode and a choice between action or adventure mode. While the action/adventure choice has some precedent, the censored mode smacks of game design by committee, of the edutainment developer trying to cater to many tastes simultaneously. I played the game uncensored and in "action" mode, and while there were a few mild R-rated scenes that did little to offend edutainment and a couple of organically placed curse words, edutainment the underlying subtext was as disturbing as any of the plot points. An artist's first responsibility is to his vision, not his audience. If that vision included adult subject matter, so be it. If the artist feels that the subject matter interferes with the piece, he should cut it out.
