The demo contains a few animations that are not in the full game, and a cameo from HP Lovecraft himself. He introduces the story using the following dialogue:
"You're there, are you? No... Don't go away. It has been so long since I had a chance to talk. My name is HOWARD PHILLIPS. We're going to follow the unusual story of a young and brilliant astronomer, JOHN T. CARTER. The adventure takes place in the most peaceful fishing port you can imagine, a place called ISTHMUTH..."
As you can see, the occupation and name of the lead character, 'Carter' and the name of the town, 'Isthmuth' were all changed for the final game. Lovecrafts image is still in the game - he's David Underhouse, pictured here. Not a perfect likeness, but close.
Underhouse - Roll over the image to see Lovecraft from the demo.
