Wild guess, as I can only connect it to a part of the hints:
Bitmap Brothers / Renegade Software
(no idea if Renegade is still there and the rights holder)

I'd probably join everyone else shouting id/3DRealms, after all isn't it the most likely?
However the thing which first jumped to mind was a long shot and that was the resident evil series (yes they had PC ports).
You could probably argue either way over most of the hints, with zombies and stuff and the cannibalistic ways and all.

Except it was explicitly said that Resident Evil is not involved. :D

GOG has stated on Twitter that it isn't Resident Evil.
Anyway, I'm going to say Apogee/3D Realms as well.

My bad, didn't track the twitter back. (Not to mention various publishers put out different games)

Seriously? How do you figure?

Could "the evil flame of metal" be the Spear of Destiny from the Wolfenstein series?

Not sure how the clues match up for this, but, Midway definitely needs the cash, so I wouldn't be surprised if we started seeing some of their old games pop up on here and other digital distribution services.

they have plenty of shooters and publish the sub hunter games (wolf clue).
Also looks like they own myst
oh, and take a dip in the pool of radiance

Team 17 gets my guess.
Yes, I know I am very foolish. But... I want to believe.
It is unfortunately likely Apogee/3D Realms. However, if that is the case, I will still be happy for those that will rejoice at such an announcement. Because I know that many of their games carry good memories for many players. It would also be good for GOG.

Weclock: NEW HINT: battle the evil flame of metal.

apexultima: Well if it is 3D Realms you could relate that hint to possibly Balls of Steel. Maybe yes, maybe no. but thats all i can think of. I'm probably wrong though.

You might be onto something there. It was developed by Wildfire Studios, which could be what the "flame" is referring to. The "evil" could be referring to Devil's Island, a table that was dropped from Balls of Steel and released as a game in it's own right.
Based on that and the rest of the clues so far, I'm going to have to go with 3D Realms/Apogee too.

Exactly :P but you know could mean something completely different
