One really cool perk of joining Cyan is that I get to capture all of the promotional shots for the new Riven.

Can't wait for y'all to play this sucker. 📚

VGHF Holiday Calendar Day 1: We remastered The Making of Riven

If you played Riven back in the day, you might remember the mini-doc that came with Riven. It was pretty great, but it was also compressed to hell in QuickTime.

As part of our project to digitize Cyan's archives, we went back to the original master tape for The Making of Riven and brought it back at unbelievable quality, including 4x the original framerate. Just look at this difference! Holy moly!

We're sharing this as part of our annual fundraiser! If you like what you see, please consider donating a couple bucks to the Video Game History Foundation's pledge drive to fund our next year of operations!

Suggest-A-Sketch - Wahrk Ahhhhhh the many, many hours I spent in the late 90's Bothering This Beast. I'm so glad that glass was thick. Suggestion by Erich Beyer on Patreon, and thanks for encouraging me to fulfill a small promise with this one. Last year at Mysterium I had Claire Hummel (AKA Shoomlah) herself, now the Lead Visual Designer at Cyan, look me dead in the eyes and challenge me to start drawing some Myst fanart because there isn't enough in the world. This week I learned that drawing the critters is really, really fun, actually. >> And I do have a Myst OC I've been meaning to elaborate on....
