I beleive what Scott was referring to was the fact that Shadow Island is
the company that produces Olympia, which is sort of a direct competitor
of Odyssey.

Gamer's Den produces Odyssey, and they do indeed plan to produce
additional modules, although whether they will be "open-ended" I can't
say.  As we're seeing in Olympia-G1, open-ended is sort of a relative
term anyway.  The victory conditions in Odyssey-Hero's Quest, the current
module I'm playing in, will be very difficult to achieve.  I expect the
game will last at least a year if not more, which is about the same time
that it tool Olympia to be essentially been "won."

Also, I understand from Gamer's Den that they plan to produce a module
design system, but the details are sketchy and it's probably a ways off.
I have put myself first in line if they do...just what I need, another
hobby.
