Neither, actually. The choice is loosely inspired by a current movie.

Googling "anime power lines" got me there. :P
Looks interesting.

The UK title was "The Ghost" (as in the book it was based on), while in the US it was "The Ghost Writer".

The Duke of Burgundy? (Pretty sure it's not, but it reminded me of stills like this).

What I was hoping to try here was to use something CG that is damn near photo-realistic to see if people could tell it was "fake". Apparently it's still obvious. I was blown away by the realism of the nature/scenery in The Good Dinosaur.  Mind blowing really.
(I also flipped the image horizontally and played with the levels a bit to throw off any cheaters using google images' "back trace" feature (nod))

I wonder if the level manipulation made it seem less "real" so that it was easier to spot it as CG? I didn't think of it at first (I was thinking along the lines of Koyaanisqatsi or Baraka), but nihilyst mentioning Home made me realize it was a CG landscape, and then I recognized it.

I'd never heard of the image "back trace" feature but I would trust particpants to play fair in their guesses.

https://www.google.com/imghp (click on the camera icon or drag an image onto the search bar)
It can be a pretty useful feature. I usually test the screenshots I upload to make sure the answer at least doesn't pop up right at the top.

Heh, I'm cool with Snarky taking it, since he was first.

Cheers! Maybe you'll have this one?

Going off Ben's hints, would that be Tremors?

It will always be open source. We literally *can't* make it closed source as AGS is open source - we'd be breaking the terms of agreement!

Sorry to be a stickler, but this is not actually correct, since the license that AGS uses, The Artistic License 2.0, allows the distribution of modified versions without the source under certain conditions. The most relevant case is as long as you ensure that it does not interfere with installation of the standard version (which it shouldn't) and you give it a name that is different from the standard version (and I believe for this purpose, it's enough that you're distributing your games under their own titles, not just as "AGS").

QuoteBesides, we don't want to :)
