  *"It is a necessary and inescapable corollary of the belief in an Intelligent and Omnipotent Creator that our world is not the only one.  It is not in the nature of an artist of unquestionable genius to complete one piece and retire."*  --Prof. Erasmus Witherfork, *Discourses on the Necessity of the Manifold*

  [This game is an homage to my favourite human-made place: the Steampunk HQ in Oamaru, NZ, which, as it happens, is the hub of the Manifold.]
