No Truce with the Furies

Product Information

A. We appreciate rhythm, snappy controls and a tactile sensation as much as the other guy, but it doesn't much relate to our current work. No Truce with the Furies by Fortress Occident bills itself as an exploration of life as an utter failure, with visuals that call to mind oil paintings and a rundown not-quite-modern world in a sort of magical reality RPG. The indie dev team’s Robert Kurvitz took some time to answer a few questions about the project, which is due on Steam later this year. From 1967, at Aberdaron on the Llŷn peninsula, Thomas pushed his theological speculation and his search for the ‘absent god’ into disconcerting new territories. This session will focus on the mythopoeic terror of H’m (1972), Thomas’s ‘quarrel with technology’ and his search for the god of the gaps . . .

The 24 skills also play into the dialogue trees, creating a situation where the player-character may have an internal debate with one aspect of their mind or body, creating the idea that the player is communicating with a fragmented persona. These internal conversations may provide suggestions or additional insight that can guide the player into actions or dialogue with the game's non-playable characters, depending on the skill points invested into the skill. For example, the Inland Empire, a subskill of the Psyche, is described by ZA/UM as a representation of the intensity of the soul, and may come into situations where the player-character may need to pass themselves off under a fake identity with the conviction behind that stance, should the player accept this suggestion when debating with Inland Empire.

A curious mix of genres, elevator-pitched as Baldur's Gate meets True Detective, No Truce With The Furies is an isometric, investigative, existential police drama whodunnit - so actually the pitch is pretty spot on.

Words) The Moor: For Soprano and Mezzo-Soprano, Unaccompanied, (printed music), music by Hilary Tann, Oxford University Press, 1998.Like the Welsh countryside he writes about, Thomas's poetry is often harsh and austere, written in plain, somber language, with a meditative quality. Runcie describes Thomas's style as consisting of "simple words and short nouns, nouns of such authentic meaning that they rarely need modifiers, moving as beats at a controlled pace in stress accent metre—a constant technique to effect a constant tone, his own inexhaustibly haunting tone that lingers like sounds in a darkness." Writing in Eight Contemporary Poets, Calvin Bedient also notes this spare style, claiming that "Thomas puts little between himself and his subject.... His poems are ascetic.... To seem at once lean and sensuous, transparent and deeply crimsoned, is part of his distinction." Thomas reveals his stylistic intentions in Words and the Poet:"A recurring ideal, I find, is that of simplicity. At times there comes the desire to write with great precision and clarity, words so simple and moving that they bring tears to the eyes."
