I seriously can't wait to be edutained by The Magical Realms of Tir Na Nog: Escape from Necron 7 - Revenge of Cuchulainn: The Official Game of the Movie - Chapter 2 of the Hoopz Barkley SaGa. I'm pledging the gently caress out of this Kickstarter.

I find it strange that the art book in on a higher tier than the body pillowcase and the tip line, though. Why is that?

Edit: I messed up the name. I am a failure. I am sorry Chef Boyardee.

This was a joke, we never imagined anyone would take this reward.

But they did.

Unbelievable.

Never doubt the people's love for slamming and jamming.

You guys have my money regardless, but is this a single character or multi-character game?

-snip-

The FAQ says single character but this pic shows what looks like a standard JRPG style party screen.

I've been wondering this too. Maybe it's still single character, but you can swap out the active character?

The humour on Barkley / the kickstartet is a lot less like edgy internet humour and more... well it's hard to describe. Similar in some ways but far superior. How does one accurately describe styles of humour? We need a humourologist.

I believe it's called "mad ironies yo."

It's good to see Truckpump again! Truly he is the most important character in the Hoopz Barkley SaGa canon.

By the way I searched out that "Homestuck" version of I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing and am killing myself now as a result so gently caress you, whoever that was.

You know it's supposed to be bad on purpose, right? It's an ironic cover.

I've been meaning to play the original. What's the least awkward control scheme for it?

I had movement bound to WASD, Action bound to Numpad 4, Cancel bound to Numpad 8, and the menu bound to Numpad +. Was comfortable for me.

Congratulations on the $120k, Cboyardee. I'm really looking forward to this game, possibly even moreso than the other Kickstarter games that I've backed.

Take comfort that you are not alone, Cboyardee. You and the guy who did the writing for Portal can go drown your sorrows in an endless tide of alcohol and tears.

I'd argue that the writing was good because they were so good at making all the characters play the silly setting completely straight whereas any other dev would be constantly nudging the player and saying "look at how wacky this setting is it's pretty wacky huh wink wink wink."

Absolutely, lets say a hypothetical game has 4 different player characters. One effortlessly slices through everything and the other three take an hour to kill every enemy. Theres no reason not to play as the first guy and it makes the game feel like it has a lot of wasted potential.

Sure there is. If I like the other characters more than Mr. Superstrong then of course I'll use one of the weaker characters.

This comparison of the final version of Barkley vs the RPG Maker version in the vidcon pack is amazing.

holy poo poo this thread, I forgot this even existed. is this ever going to actually happen, or is it going to be just like 99% of all other kickstarters? Is the dude working on it even around anymore?

Gortarius sometimes posts videos of himself designing levels, and he has posts on this page right this very now. And just a few days ago they posted an update about balancing the game and also drooling over MS Excel. It's still happening.

I wonder how bad the Duke Nukem Forever effect - where the game is judged not on its own merits but against ridiculously high expectations that have been built up over years and years - is going to be when the game comes out.

That implies people have expectations for this game :v:

I'm joking, of course. I have an irresponsible amount of faith in this group of basement goons.

You could force them to breed against their will but that'd give you negative K.A.R.M.A. But how long can you cling to your morals in this hosed up world...

It would be nice to get a serious response on the state of the game and its potential future that wasn't "lol its not coming out/its going to be garbage".
It feels like everyone was laughing and joshing about it for years and then recently its started to wear thin and the smiles are brittle.

I don't want a refund or anything and I'm not going to start going on about your duty to my quids, I'd just like to know what is the state of the sequel to one of my favourite RPGs; beyond "we have finished brainstorming affixes" type minutia.

gently caress it, I'll wait either way but the ironic devposts and disconnected updates were only funny for so many years.

Here's some footage a guy took from a playable demo at this year's PAX.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dkb1xQQZmTQ

There was also a "Story" video that I haven't really watched much. It seems to me like they're making good progress, but I'm not on the team or anything so take that with a grain of salt I guess. :shrug:

This is what they get for trying to make an actual good game instead of just a shitpost in vidya form. Hopefully they'll apply this lesson to their upcoming Barkley 3 kickstarter.
