And yes, people play this for fun.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.slenderarrival.com/"><em>Slender: The Arrival</em></a> is in development by <em>The Eight Pages</em> creator Mark Hadley, under Parsec Productions, and Blue Isle Studios. It's planned for a commercial PC release "in the coming months."<br /><br />"<em>Slender: The Arrival</em> is the official re-imagining of the original release that will engage players with the same terrifying gameplay, while adding a complete gaming experience that the fans have been asking for," Blue Isle <a href="http://blueislestudios.com/announcing-slender-the-arrival/">writes</a>. "We have been working closely with Mark over the past few weeks and we are really excited to deliver the best Slender game possible. The final version will include improved visuals, more content, more levels, and an engaging storyline to add to the Slender setting."<br /><br />Below are the first two screenshots of <em>Slender: The Arrival</em>.
