Hello! 
This is a weird place to make such a request, but I couldn't find any contact details - I'm an academic, and an academic friend of mine is mighty interested in Depths of Fear for a paper he's writing. Any idea when the game might be available again on Steam, or if there's any alternative method of purchasing it?
Very best to you!

:) its not out yet, though its available for pre-order (its expensive, mind, being an academic press):
https://www.bloomsbury.com/uk/ancient-greece-and-rome-in-videogames-978135015719...

There's also a collection of papers in the same series, which I'm also in!

self-promotion, over

Thank you Skarn! And thanks very much for producing the game. I'll let you know how the book, and your section, go along and are received in future. Very best!

I'm following up on this here request, as I would like your consent to use screenshots of Melos in a forthcoming book about ancient history and videogames.

I can confirm that I've spoken to other creators on the itch.io platform and received their consent - its the real deal, and it won't cost anything :)

Cheers,
Ross

Hi Skarn, 

I'm just following up on the message above, and hoping you're well in these trying times. 

May I ask if you can get in touch regarding the use of screenshots from the Melos game in the forthcoming publication mentioned in the previous message? 

Very best,
Ross


Thanks for getting back to us! I'll throw you an email shortly :)

Hello!

My name's Ross, I'm a researcher over at the University of Liverpool, UK, and I'm contracted to produce a book on the use of ancient Greece and Rome in videogames. 

I hope its alright, but I've played and studies the Melos game in a case-study analysis for the book. 

To support the analysis of Melos, I've also manually taken screenshots. I therefore required your permission to use those screenshots in the book. May I request your consent to use those images I've prepared in the forthcoming publication?

I'm afraid I don't have a social media presence, but I can trade email addresses if you need further information on the forthcoming book itself. 

Thank you for the game, by the way - its a truly unique take on Archaic Greece and (as your fans below state) a genuinely emotional experience!

Very best,

Ross

Hello! 

My name's Ross, I'm a researcher at the University of Liverpool, UK, and I'm contracted by Bloomsbury Academic to produce a book all about the use of ancient Greece and Rome in videogames. 

I hope its acceptable to you that I played and analysed your game (along with Skarn's Melos) as a case study in the book.

As well as letting you know my intentions, this is also a request for your permission to use images from the game in the publication. I manually took screenshots and use images from the game to support the analysis, and require your consent to use them in the book. 

I'm afraid I don't have any real social media presence, but I can trade email addresses if you'd like further information (the book's release date, ISBN number etc.) or have any questions.

I greatly enjoyed the game, by the way, and really, sincerely appreciated your thoughtful take on the Helen of Troy character :)

Very best,

Ross
