- Newer MacOS Compatibility + Spanish Language Update - 6 April 2024
Greetings, fellow humans. Everything is fine and you have nothing to be afraid of. Today I'm pleased to announce that The Whisperer in Darkness has been updated for compatibility with new versions of Mac OS. Additionally, you can now play it in Spanish! https://i.postimg.cc/kg462ncz/update1.png This update will likely make Whisperer incompatible with older versions of Mac OS and Windows. If you need to play Whisperer on an older system, you can download the legacy version like so: 1. In your Steam library, right-click The Whisperer in Darkness and select "Properties". https://i.postimg.cc/W49Phv5W/legacy1.png 2.

- FLIES FLIES FLIES: a new Visual Novel by Nat Quayle Nelson - 4 December 2023
Wow, it's been a while! This is Nat, the writer/designer/creator of The Whisperer in Darkness visual novel. I'm here to announce that my next project, a sci-fi comedy visual novel, is now on Steam! FLIES FLIES FLIES One day, before he can even graduate high school, Finn Flynn wakes up in the body of a housefly. Without the use of his voice, he'll have to enlist his prankster ex-boyfriend, and his dads, an insectophobic mad scientist and a punk rocker, to solve the mystery of his transformation, and maybe get his life back? FLIES FLIES FLIES will contain 6 episodes of roughly 25 minutes' playtime each. 2 episodes will be available at launch, and the rest will be released as free updates throughout 2023 and 2024. Unlike The Whisperer in Darkness, FLIES FLIES FLIES is fully voice-acted. It's also a completely original story I wrote from the ground up. It's highly ambitious, and will contai…
- Black Lives Matter: All sales of The Whisperer in Darkness will benefit the Marsha P. Johnson Institute - 18 January 2021
Black Lives Matter. Back in July of 2020, inspired by itch.io's Bundle For Racial Justice and Equality, we the developers of The Whisperer in Darkness agreed to donate 100% of our earnings from our game to Anti-Racist non-profit organizations. It's taken a while to get to writing this official announcement. In honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, today felt like a good time to do it. The first organization we've chosen is The Marsha P. Johnson Institute, whose mission statement begins like so: "The Marsha P. Johnson Institute (MPJI) protects and defends the human rights of BLACK transgender people." Many thanks go out to everyone who has played and enjoyed our game! --Nat
- Now on Patreon - 14 March 2017
Hey, it's the main dev here. I've just started a Patreon campaign to help fund my game development, which I do entirely on my own time while also juggling a full-time college schedule. If you loved the game, and especially if you'd like to see it translated into other languages and made accessible to a much wider audience, please consider making a donation. If you haven't played the game, or if you'd like to share it with a friend, you can also pledge at $3/month to receive a free copy of The Whisperer in Darkness. Ever the praises of Great Cthulhu.

- First Update: Graphics scaling - 24 February 2017
It's been a while, but here's the first update. It cleans up some little imperfections in the UI, but more importantly, adds options for graphics scaling that should make the game much easier to read. Playing through it now, I myself have to wonder how anyone put up with the tiny text of the original version. (It looks better ingame.) I plan to make just a couple more updates improving little things about the experience (though the story will remain the same), and at least one major update improving general accessibility. Not to mention integration with more Steamworks features, and localization, starting with Spanish! Be safe, —Nathaniel

- PokeMi-Go: The Whisperer In Darkness - 6 October 2016
The Whisperer in Darkness is a visual novel adaptation of the Lovecraft story of the same name. Like many, I went through a cosmic horror stage during my teen years and devoured as much HP sauce as I could handle, but I find that I struggle to separate one piece of Lovecraft from another in my mind. I had to look up The Whisperer and was delighted to find it’s the story in which alien funghi, the Mi-Go, offer to pull out peoples’ brains and transport them across the universe in jars, making budget airline operators the world over green with envy. The adaptation is interesting to me primarily because of the detailed devlogs about the challenges of both modernising the story and introducing interactive elements. …
