Thanks for reminding me that Still Waiting... was an actual movie. :smithicide:

Yeah seriously, and Adam Carolla was in it but they didn't even put him on the cover, what the gently caress

I mean i know he's just a cameo but hey, they stuck Dave Chapelle front and center on the cover of Half Baked when he got famous because they knew he'd sell the movie

this char is good
only good part of still waiting is when the dude from the first movie comes in and has become exactly what he always hated most


a happy story

All you need to hear is that it's called "Bob's Game" for you to know he's a megalomaniac.

And that Bob's Game features prominently within the game itself as if anyone other than Bob would give a gently caress about Bob's Game.

Oooooooooooh!

like it was a cool idea 10 years ago that he made a game by himself
but havent a bazillion indie devs done that by now and actually released their games

that's true. there are so many development tools that it's pretty reasonable for someone to make a game by themselves these days. download unity & blender and you're pretty much set. bob's game is already obsolete

There is no Bob's Game. Bob's Game is the notebook full of doodles at the end of American Psycho.

He didn't actually make a game though

I remember when he released the demo (which was like 5 years ago not 10) and there had been plenty of one-person games released by then. On the indie game forum I used to post on everybody made fun of him until he came and started arguing with us. then he went nuts about the nintendo thing. then he claimed that he only pretended to go nuts as part of an alternate reality marketing stunt. which is arguably even more nuts than just going nuts

the moral of the story is to not post about your hobby projects on the internet, that way no one will make fun of you when you don't finish them

we never say anything unless it is worth taking a long time to say.
bobsgame.com has been "updated." The insane life story wall of text is now gone and replaced with a simple...

I guess we won't be receiving refunds on our Kickstarter pledges, and bob's game development will go on. Hooray?

I know I'm late to the party but holy poo poo this kickstarter. I love that his failing stretch goal is probably the smartest thing for him to do.

I thought I made a lot of bad decisions but man this guy really goes for it, or at least claims he does. He claims he found someone to make him a custom handheld device for 25 bucks and then wasted a year trying to set up some sort of hub system for it? Oh my god, I don't believe Nintendo ever actually offered him a job, but goddamn, this guy really needs some loving structure.

Every line of this is just insane or stupid. He thinks he could afford an office for 20,000 bucks for a couple years??


"My means of supporting myself are extremely modest and with even a small amount of funding I should be able to get the ball rolling and keep it steady with regular donations and purchases from a small fan community."

Good lord.
