No, don’t post that. It’s too early in the day and in the year to be that cynical and jaded even for me.

There’s a thick vein of “if you’re having fun, you’re playing it right,” but… Paranoia. It wasn’t originally designed for the over-the-top slapstick comedy it’s become famous for. People just insisted on playing it in the “zap” style so the designers eventually wrote that into the game. It is a...

The intent was a specific food. But I’m not a cop.

The infographic was left off Toon 2E for some reason. Here's the info. $103,424 of $50,000. 200+% funded. 2,241 backers. 15 days left.
