I'm not sure if the famous flying Ottoman scholar Hezârfen Ahmed Çelebi was actually as fabulous as this painting by Adem Başpınar makes him look, but legend has it that he did manage to fly over the Bosporus strait in 1632.

Whereupon he was sent into exile for being "scary."

Consider the story of Eilmer of Malesbury, an English monk who lived between 980 and 1066, and who chucked himself off a tower with some canvas wings in his youth.

One key theme in history: bored monks get up to some weird stuff.

Busin 0 has the entire team, from the level designers to the scrip writers, going completely sicko. And Katsuya Terada did the same with the art style, it's a really dark, tense and striking game.
