Ahead of Pixelsplit and publisher Daedalic Entertainment’s psychological horror game Reveil being released tomorrow, the teams have given fans a taste of the game’s score with the release of three tracks from the game’s soundtrack. Written and performed by singer-songwriter Arina Tara, the songs are inspired by the game’s story and “capture the mind-bending atmosphere perfectly.”
Artist Arina Tara studied both songwriting and game-design to combine her two passions music and games. Her soundtrack also impacted the general sound design of Reveil. For example, the melody of “We will go” was also used for some elements, such as the music box in the first chapter, and thus found its way from the song into the game. You can check out the three tracks on Spotify, iTunes and Deezer.

While it’s not a demo, developer Pixelsplit and publisher Daedalic Entertainment have the next best thing for their upcoming psychological horror game Reveil in the form of a new Gameplay Showcase video. Joined by indie enthusiast CozyGamerKat, members of the Pixelsplit team talk about Reveil’s development, story, environment, and sound design, while also sharing the gameplay and a “never-before-seen spine-chilling chase sequence”.
In the video, viewers will experience the beginning of Reveil, as well as a short but intense segment that takes place in a later part of the story. The video follows main character Walter Thompson as he wakes up in his bedroom, just to realize soon after that this is not his home – but a place where different memories of his get interwoven with each other.

Originally aiming for a 2023 release, developer Pixelsplit has announced that their atmospheric psychological horror game Reveil will be heading to PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series on March 6. The announcement was accompanied by a short trailer, and a time-limited 10% discount on Steam to pre-purchase the game.
Reveil puts players in the body and mind of Walter Thompson as he seeks his missing wife and daughter through the depths of his reality, psyche, and memories. Set against the backdrop of an “authentically orchestrated environment” inspired by the circus of the 60s, Walter wakes up one morning unable to remember much of the previous night. His wife Martha and daughter Dorie are nowhere to be found. His search for answers leads him to the Nelson Bros Circus, where Walter was once employed as a stage builder. As you piece together what transpired, things get progressively more bizarre, as the lines between reality, memory,...

Debuting during the Future Games Show, German developer Pixelsplit and publisher Daedalic Entertainment have unleashed a new trailer for their upcoming narrative-driven psychological horror title, Reveil. Set for release on Steam later this year, the trailer showcases atmospheric gameplay in claustrophobia-inducing environments.
Set against the backdrop of an “authentically orchestrated environment” inspired by the circus of the 60s, Reveil‘s story centres on one Walter Thompson. Walter wakes up one morning unable to remember much of the previous night. His wife Martha and daughter Dorie are nowhere to be found. His search for answers leads him to the Nelson Bros Circus, where Walter was once employed as a stage builder. As you piece together what transpired, things get progressively more bizarre, as the lines between reality, memory, and imagination become increasingly blurred.
Much like the setup for the story, not much has been revealed regarding Reveil‘s gameplay just yet.

Columbia sets Jacques Demy loose on the streets of Los Angeles in the pivotal year of 1968. Although it puts a coda on the French director’s bundle of romantic films, with his special philosophical approach to Love, this starring picture for Anouk Aimée and Gary Lockwood doesn’t quite catch fire in the same way. If our City of the Angels indeed defeated Demy’s unstoppable knack for romantic delirium, we owe him an apology.

A Dutch ad agency assigned its own monetary values to YouTube views, and at least one creator walked away with a brand new car as a result. Netherlands-based J Walter Thompson Amsterdam (Jwt) devised a campaign for automaker Opel that offered new vehicles for creators who reached certain viewership benchmarks on videos related to the brand, and at least one person -- Dutchman Yuri Schuurkes -- hit that goal.
The campaign in question offered up "online editions" of three different Opel models. Any creator who launched a video related to an Opel test drive was able to put any resulting viewership toward the purchase of a car. According to Adweek, Jwt set up an exchange rate of 40 YouTube views to €1 and applied that rubric to Opel's Karl Rocks, Corsa, and Astra lines.

John Huston sets the bar for director-driven quality filmmaking of the early 1970s. Stacy Keach is a punchy boxing bum who teams up with the ambitious newcomer Jeff Bridges; the glowing discovery is the amazing Susan Tyrell, film history's most convincingly caustic floozy-alcoholic, bar none.

Over the past few weeks, we've seen prominent Republican men display emotion in a way rarely seen in public. Anne Kreamer on the biology of tearing up.
As a person who chokes up at a news story most days and full-on cried during Toy Story 3, I feel for John Boehner and Mitch McConnell, fellow members of the crying tribe.
Related story on The Daily Beast: Can You Prevent a Hangover?
Both Speaker-Elect Boehner and Senate Minority Leader McConnell recently had a good cry as the cameras rolled, creating an enormous buzz and provoking widespread derision among my fellow liberals, including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
Crying at work is something both men and women do, though not equally. Women cry, on average, four times as often as men-according to University of Minnesota neurologist William Frey, an average of 5.3 times per month, compared with 1.4 times for men. This isn't just a...

A Rimmel London mascara ad featuring Georgia May Jagger (daughter of Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger) was banned for using false lashes to present the "promise" of longer lashes from the mascara. The ad in question:
Rimmel came under fire three years ago, for the same issue: The Advertising Standards Authority investigated a 2007 ad starring Kate Moss after users called foul on her lashes. Ultimately, the Asa couldn't prove that the lashes themselves were false, as Rimmel's ad firm J. Walter Thompson claimed that Moss wasn't wearing falsies, but that the lashes had indeed been touched up in postproduction.

In his new book, Thaddeus Russell shows how American culture was formed on the fringes of society. This excerpt is not the history you will find in textbooks, but one driven by clashes between insiders who sought to preserve social order and outsiders bent on pursuing their own desires.
Shopping: The Real American Revolution
If you were a typical American living in the early part of the nineteenth century, you had to plant, tend, harvest, slaughter, and process your own food. You had to make your own clothing, and all of it had to be strictly utilitarian: no decorations, unnecessary colors, or “style.” You worked from before dawn until late at night. Your only source of entertainment was books, and most that were available were moral parables. You spent your entire life within a fifty-mile radius of your home. You believed that leisure was bad. There was no weekend.

Behind the scenes at the recently completed New York headquarters of the agency formerly known as J. Walter Thompson.
In 2004, J. Walter Thompson set about re-branding itself with a new name--jwt--and a focus on "storytelling" rather than "messaging." (We covered that process in a cover story here.) The refocusing might sound like ad-man mumbo jumbo, but one concrete step they took was gutting their offices, and redesigning the space with the goal of projecting that new ethos.
To pull it off, Jwt tapped Clive Wilkinson Architects, who worked with Degw, a work-space consultancy, and Hok, who executed the design. The goal was to open the office up, so as to facilitate collaboration. That meant no private offices in the new, 250,000-square-foot plan, and a range of meeting spaces amenable to all sorts of interactions--from formal client meetings to ad hoc clowning around. Meanwhile, the storytelling motif was echoed in famous opening lines from books,...

Television Rating: 3.5/5.0 Chicago – We have good news for fans of “Will & Grace” and “Ed”. The stars of those two shows have been lucky enough to have lightning strike their careers again with TNT’s “Trust Me”.
Gimmicks and concepts may get an audience to tune in for a premiere episode, but television is still primarily a medium that lives and dies on the quality of its writing. Even the best ensembles will find themselves looking for other work if the writing doesn’t click. And it’s often difficult for TV stars who find success once to land another project with the same caliber of writing (ask Jason Alexander, Brad Garrett, or the cast of Fox’s “Back to You”.)
