Played the demo a while back and enjoyed the Twin Peaks inspired goodness. Full game is actually pretty scary especially the part where I was walking around the woods. Even chat got pretty nervous and getting jump scared by the moose not, but three times is pretty gosh impressive. My only complaint is the driving mechanics and a lack of a save/checkpoint mechanism. Having to restart the game from the beginning is not so fun because I got stuck in a ditch. Also the car kept moving when I paused the game... Anyways looking forward to Episode 2! Can't wait! Here's my stream vod by the way

Really enjoyed Episode 1 in it's full release, lived up to the bizarreness of The Pilot in the best way! The first portion was especially creepy, very well done.

Very much looking forward to Episode 2 and the rest of the series :)
