Behold! An unexpected teaser trailer for my cosy Sherlock Holmes point and click game The Beekeeper's Picnic

I made this (...very quickly) for a fun event originating on BlueSky called The Game Awards for Games Who Can't Afford the Game Awards, but since it's over now I thought I'd release it here!

I've got a longer and more polished release trailer in the works, but for now enjoy this!

I know some of my mutuals have also been playing Strange Horticulture, and when I opened the link for this, Steam went "oh, it's like SH and you like that!". So definitely adding and definitely reblogging

Thank you! I love that Steam's algorithm keeps pairing my game up with Strange Horticulture.

I have a Granada Holmes question! Do you know what it is that Jeremy Brett sings at the opening of The Bruce-Partington Plans? I've figured out it's Quemadmodum Desiderat Cervus, and not the Palestrina version, but beyond that I'm stumped.

I've no idea which composition (arrangement?) it is (being tone-deaf does Not help!) and I've been trying to find it so I can listen to the whole thing - the little snippet we hear is so lovely! Would you happen to know?

oldshrewsburyian answered:

Hello! This is possibly the most me™ question possible. It's Orlando di Lasso, LV 365, of which I could not find a recording, but here, have the sheet music!

File:PMLP193275-Lassus Quemadmodum desiderat.pdf - IMSLP
imslp.org

It stands out from other polyphonic settings¹ for the way it lingers on the first line, about the metaphorical desiring of the hart, rather than moving directly on to the "ita..." section about spiritual desire.

¹I think this is the word you're looking for, with composition and arrangement. You'll find a lot of different composers doing settings of the same sacred texts.

Still reading the OG Sherlock Holmes, and coming to The Adventure of the Naval Treaty and learning that Watson was kind of a bully in school is both unexpect, make so much damn sense, and is hilarious. That man use to hit another kid with a cricket stick for the sole crime of being the nephew of some important guy ! Baby that's insane behavior, I love you.

Hey! Thanks so much! I’m delighted you’re digging into the stories. There are so many good h/w blogs out there! A few that are pretty active and focus on canon and the canon-faithful Granada adaptation:

Rereading the canon in English gives me surprises. The scene in “A Case of Identity” when Holmes imagines he flies out the window with Watson, for example, is a little duller in French (they don’t take each other’s hands and the description is really short)

So, hand in hand over london-

“I had called upon my friend Sherlock Holmes upon the second morning after Christmas, with the intention of wishing him the compliments of the season. He was lounging upon the sofa in a purple dressing-gown, a pipe-rack within his reach upon the right, and a pile of crumpled morning papers, evidently newly studied, near at hand.”

— John Watson, “The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle”

Everyone gives Sherlock Holmes a hard time about being mean about Watson's writing, but honestly imagine you told your roommate "sure, you can write up an account of my work for the newspaper," thinking it would be like, about the murder, but then he publishes it and it's 90% about you, as a person, and it's a huge hit and now everyone in London knows that you hoard newspapers and do cocoaine when you're depressed. Because I think you'd be little miffed too.
