It was so awesome to see a mention of this ancient but groundbreaking game in the latest news here:
http://www.penny-arcade.com/2011/2/2/
I have been telling my friends stories about the days of yore and my first encounter with space survival horror through that very game. Most of them are either too young to have experienced it or just missed it back in the days when it was new.
So, how many of you have actually played it?

e: I think my first 'scary game' was Parasite Eve, and it wasn't all that scary.
PSN: Dyvion -- Eternal: Dyvion+9393 -- Genshin Impact: Dyvion
Lots of fun though.
Project Firestart was probably the only game to make me literally piss my pants.
And I didn't even die! I finished it in one setting. But oh boy, that crap is scary. And the original Alone in the Dark also creeped me out a lot, and I didn't even own a soundcard...
Nowadays survival horror means gibbing dozens of zombies with unlimited ammo. Now, that can be funny too (Dead Rising anyone?).
Should read:
Well, in the future, that's the miracle of the edit button.
Same explaining power, more ass covering lies about how you never did it in the first place.
Why I fear the ocean.
But, I never finished it! I still remember all the different options I tried to get things done. Oh man, flashbacks just from the different things you could find or could happen to you, and everything so creepy. I always ended up dying... one way or another.
Anyway, great game and a good flashback. I think someone did a remake/update but not sure if it's worth checking out.
Reminds me of all the other games I liked that I kind of wish were updated from the C64. Elite is one. Also, all those D&D games.
It is a C64 game, so you can probably find and play it, but that would be beyond the scope of this forum.

While not playing it, this is a long play of the game on youtube. No commentary just the games music and sound effects.
