No, your eyes do not deceive. I did start this post with a picture of David Bowie.
"Why?" one might ask. "What the heck does King of Awesome David Bowie have to do with my Capcom-Unity videogames blog?"
Well, that's not just any random pic of David; it's David Bowie as Nikola Tesla, and Nikola Tesla is the man behind the mystery in Dark Void.
So how much do you really know about Tesla? I mean, beyond what you just read on Wikipedia?
Well, Nikola Tesla, brilliant inventor and "Father of Physics" that he was is said to have disappeared days before his purported death. Shortly after an anything-but-textbook landing in the Bermuda Triangle, our protagonist Will encounters Nikola holed up with a band of resistance fighters. Nikola's genius is what has kept this ragtag group of men and women alive and kicking for so long. He is, without a doubt, the backbone of the resistance and quite literally the man behind the machinery.
If you know anything about Dark Void, you're probably familiar with Nikola's most famous invention.
No, no, not the radio.
You can't put guns on a radio.
That's right. The jetpack. Without Nikola's ingenuity and his knack for turning Watcher tech into Survivor tech, where would Will be? Not on the front cover of our game, that's for sure.
Random Trivia: A native Serb, Nikola Tesla's image appears immortalized on the Serbian dinar:

Wow, thank you Shana for pumping out the updates this month :)
Com_RavenI love the fact that you included Tesla - I hope that we will see more references and cameos regarding real-world "mysteries" :)
