I'm pretty sure you were the first and only guy I was the wizard for. I felt really bad about it afterward because I definitely blew it, the other two wizards were way better.

Just think of all the people out there who got no wizard at all. No matter how badly you feel you did, everyone else wishes they could have experienced your wizardness.

Hey Chef, thanks for the email update! In regards to bringing the wizard experience to more people, have you considered rolling out a simple website a couple of months before launch that would mirror the character creation process (through a survey or quiz engine perhaps) and then output a character code to feed into the game when it comes out? I would love to check out the CC process beforehand and it might renew hype in the game as well as lead to another round of publicity.

This but I also want an FMV version of the wizard integrated into the website similar to the Subservient Chicken thing Burger King did years ago too.

Basically what I'm saying is take all marketing ideas from Burger King.

I will talk to our server dudes about this. This has been a problem for a while, sometimes emails go to spam or some other folder and we can't figure out why. Check there first and let me know if it's not there.

At the moment we're trying to get the game validated for another, smaller convention in DC where we'll be doing the wizard stuff again. Not sure about anything after that but we'll try to get more wizard stuff going!

Yeah it's not there. I actually lost use of my old school email, which is where updates used to go. Now I use a gmail. I sent something to the ToG rat before, but I can send another thing.

Set up a camera and record the Wizard doing his magic. Set up a mic under the table so everyone can hear.

I guess our mailing server thing isn't working right. Just an FYI though, these email updates were available to people who gave $40 and up, the regular Kickstarter updates should be visible to everyone. I think there's another one coming up soon too.

Before Pax I told Chef that they should make a portrait/painting (of me) that they would hang in the wizards booth, and it would have the eyes cut out and replaced with webcams that stream directly to twitch tv or something, so people can join in. Also microphones in the ears and a speaker in the mouth to make the booth haunted.

It never happened. Instead ToG overlords went and bought a wheelbarrow full of doritos.

Yes, those were some of the first games I ever worked on! How did you find this?

That guy was called Diggity Dawg and we both came from the Gaming World community, where we made stupid RPG Maker games. Diggity Dawg and I (and most of the people who worked on Barkley) were part of a sub-community called Targ Like Cupcakes that was all about surreal humor. I think there were about 4 or 5 Targ games made but the one you linked was the best (and last). Barkley was originally supposed to be a Targ game, but kind of turned into its own thing. There are lots of callbacks to its Targ roots though.

That is a wild find.

Note to us all in a year and a half when we're actually playing Barkley 2: When you leave the most talkative old man's house, go 36 bricks west and 14 bricks north and there will be something.

Someone had to listen to the entire podcast and then post that here, obviously.
