If anyone is going to be in San Diego this month for Comic-Con, we have been furiously polishing a playable build of The Darkness II that will be showing there... so please check it out! It will be at booth #2629. There will also be free copies of The Darkness II: Confessions comic and a chance to win a sweet Darkling figurine (pictured above)! Take a look at the 2K blog for more details.
Anyway, hope you enjoy playing our demo! :)
P.S. This was the first weekend in a long time I had to myself. Did a bit more editor work for Battle Balloons. I have the UI framework done and working on the "look" now - aiming for something like that minimalist window manager, Blackbox. Loved using that thing back in my Linux days...
