RE: Pho's Phobias

I'll see if I can implement an abyss-sort of feature in the lower maps. Probably one that will serve as a deterrent to Acrophobics as well, since the whole "falling to your death" thing is only very vaguely reduced by having some impossibly deep water below you. I don't have the swimming capability set up like the Atlantia mod, nor do I plan to steal it, so unless I come up with my own (probably involving strong forces acting on the player to slow his descent and a very deep descent before death, to the point at which the lighting from above becomes effectively nil - actually I like the potential here, so I'll do my best to terrify the Aquaphobes amongst us.

If I didn't list your personal scare preference (or aversion, as the case may be), feel free to put it in the thread. I just included some of the ones already present or planned for Harvest or Harvest: Prologue. Other potential scares will be included (this list is not comprehensive, new scares are always being added, usually in the form of Nothing Is Scarier, Mind Screw, and Primal Fear. (Spoiler alert? Nahhhhh.)

For the Tropers out there, expect to see (possible spoilers if you're Superintelligent and maybe Hyper-Aware):
Spoiler below!
Multiple Endings: Three planned for Harvest. There are six for Harvest: Prologue, two for each of the three independent maps.
Creepy Child: (Name removed to prevent utter spoilage.)
More than Mind Control: (Name removed to prevent utter spoilage.)
Foreshadowing: Templeton's notes.
Cuckoo Nest: One of the rooms in the real-live Foulksrath Castle is named this (see the "Real Life" line below). The trope also happens to Liam.
Mind Screw: Couples nicely with the above.
The Ending Changes Everything: Depends on which ending you get, really.
Secret Path: One so far, more to come.
Real Life: I'll just leave this here.
Primal Fear: Coupled with Nothing is Scarier, because "The rarely used third variation is where there's nothing there . . . nothing there . . . nothing there . . . and then you realize there is something there, and it's been there all along."
