Dear Esther

What was originally supposed to be a full-game mod for Valve's Half-Life 2 using the Source engine, has now turned into an entire game of its own.  Dear Esther was originally released in 2008 as a mod but was picked up in 2009 for a complete art overhaul.  The game has been in production since.  It eventually reached a point where the developers were able to get a license to create an actual game which will be released on Steam in February for $10.

Dear Esther is a ghost Story about an island.  The game uses a first person perspective as the player explores the island, trying to unravel its mysteries.  for more information, check out the website at http://dear-esther.com/.
