Who developed Gish?
[edit]The first sentence of this article says that Gish was "created by Edmund McMillen and [is] distributed by Chronic Logic and Stardock" (emphasis added).
The infobox and the descriptions at Chronic Logic and TotalGaming.net (Stardock) say "developer: Chronic Logic".
We probably should clarify this apparent contradiction.
I've just created an article about Chronic Logic, in which I've listed Gish as a game developed by Chronic Logic, so that article may need correction too.

- Gish was developed by Chronic Logic, which Alex Austin (Cryptic Sea) was part of at the time. Austin maintained the game via Cryptic Sea after Chronic Logic disbanded. IceWelder [✉] 10:47, 8 February 2021 (UTC)

[edit]I've removed template:reqimage from the talk page, because we've already got cover art and a screenshot. If somebody feels more is needed, I can probably supply them. Drop a note on my talk page. SeventyThree(Talk) 16:56, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

Complete list of music used in Gish game
[edit]I can say that indeed interesting music was used in "Gish" game. I see most of them are by this "Estradasphere" band, but nevertheless I would like to see a complete list of names of all tracks used in the game.
- That is outside our scope for VG articles. IceWelder [✉] 10:47, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
Heh, Edmund McMillen...
[edit]A couple of things I've done recently:
- I've seen some Flash animation titles (titles were enough) on "Newgrounds.com" by Edmund a couple of days ago ...if that's the same Edmund McMillen as here.
- Also, yesterday, I was watching TV, and I've seen some rrrrrreal old TV comedy (American; probably from '60 / early '70s (but techiccolor)) with these soldiers and their comedian adventures in their base. One of them said to the other something real funny about someone, he said: "He's so twisted in the head, he needs to screw his hat on."
- An indie darling copying other peoples work? Say it isn't so! (I'm joking, they do it all the time) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.174.16.105 (talk) 13:10, 9 December 2010 (UTC)
Cryptic Sea or Chronic Logic?
[edit]The recent release of Steam not only notes the developer as Cryptic Sea, but also links to a different official website at http://www.crypticsea.com/gish/
What should be done? First, shall we list the developer as Cryptic Sea, while keeping the publisher as Chronic Logic (considering they are the people who made it) and second, what shall we link to as the official website?--RabidZombie 16:52, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
- Gish was developed by Chronic Logic, which Alex Austin (Cryptic Sea) was part of at the time. Austin maintained the game via Cryptic Sea after Chronic Logic disbanded. IceWelder [✉] 10:47, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:Gish box art.jpg

I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.
