I have amended the date to the end of jan as this should give everyone a bit more breathing room

Is the use of shaders a must, since nice graphics could be done without their help with some talant and imagination? I believe the most important thing is the nice idea, its realisation and the whole feeling of the "game", isn`t it?

shaders arn't an absolute anymore, if you create without and it looks good then you wont be rated any lower than someone that has, however all of the best effects involve shaders from my point of view

In demonology, Murmur is a Great Duke and Earl of Hell, and has thirty legions of demons under his command. He teaches Philosophy, and can oblige the souls of the deceased to appear before the conjurer to answer every desired question.

Murmur is depicted as a soldier riding a Vulture or a Griffin, and wearing a ducal crown. Two of his ministers go before him making the sound of trumpets. 'Murmur' in Latin means noise, whisper, murmur, and the sound of the trumpet. Some authors portray him simply as a vulture.

Other spelling: Murmus, Murmuur, Murmux.

One more question... Does it have to be a seamless loop? Or should it just replay itself when it's done?

seamless is preffered but not essential

that is exactly the kind of reaction from viewers that is needed, you will stuggle with me on this as I am a sick movie addict but you are definatly on the right track, may the sickest demo win ;0)

** updated
for an example of something that really creeped me out jump to time index 1.23 in this vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LvwRl_jF8Zk preview of the film mirrors, is better if you find it in the movie rather than the above short preview ;0)

Me and a few of my friends are actually already working on a horror game so I should be able to make an entry.

Just one question: will I be allowed to cut to different shots/points of view or does it all have to be in one shot?
