Wow, this is totally awesome to hear! Control (one of my favourite games) was a HUGE inspiration for Wicked Congregation. It's heartwarming to see my horror game inspire a cool audio drama!

Hell yeah, any game that lists Dragon Inn, One-Armed Swordsman, and Come Drink With Me among its inspirations gets a thumbs-up from me. And the best part is -- I apparently backed it! Sometimes it's hard to keep these things straight.
