Unheard of penumbra game

Hello, This is my first thread and not sure if this is in the right thread. I am a huge frictional fan boy :3 I own all their games. But before I was a fan boy, I wanted to get a scary game when i was a scardy cat. I googled "What is a good scary game for pc" and penumbra overture and black plague popped up. So I searched on Google "Penumbra" and a download was I found. It was just called "Penumbra" and that's it... So I downloaded it and I loved it, it was such a good game and I had a crappy computer back then. I beat the game and then skip ahead about a year. I had owned Amnesia not knowing that there were other penumbras then i watched a youtuber start playing Penumbra Overture, And thought wow this is cool but i didn't have money at the time. Now skip ahead 3 - 4 years. I got a new custom built computer and I started to play amnesia custom story's again just last week, so i got all the penumbras as well. I have only played black plague so far. And today i started to remember that one penumbra i played. so i Googled it and it must be a fan game or something because it was not created by frictional games. It's also free so i will leave a download link and if a mod or someone wants me to take it down for copyright reasons that is fine i do not know if this is just a early project or what. So tell me if this is not allowed, sorry if it isn't again this is my first post. Download

RE: Unheard of penumbra game

It seems like the free Penumbra game. It's before they got a publisher, if I'm not mistaken Wink

RE: Unheard of penumbra game

This is actually a pirated Penumbra, Tiiss. FG has never officially released any free game (or that I think).

So, I suggest you to remove the download link or the moderators will do something with this thread.

Nice to meet you though. Have a nice day Wink

RE: Unheard of penumbra game

Why does everyone here think everyone has a pirated game? My goodness, stop assuming.

Yes, exactly. It's not a hard copy. The game is distributed this way. Not everyone has it illegally downloaded.Exclamation

RE: Unheard of penumbra game

Let me explain what the game is.
The free tech demo of Penumbra was just a school project by Frictional Games and they won a student developer competition. This game is no part of the Penumbra series, it's just a tech demo shows the engine, how gameplay and physics working etc. Later they got a publisher for the "true" Penumbra series with full-length story.

The tech demo is not a classical demo with limited content, it's full playable, has same core story like Overture, but is a completely different game.
