In the Grim Darkness of the Future, there is only war.

...and delicious ice cream.
I think it's important to remember that most people who are overtly hostile or blustery are basically just lonely. The man lashes out at Dropsy because he feels unloved and threatened by the world.

He needs a hug.

Not only does Mr. Gunman need a hug, but I think Dropsy needs a hug too after the tragic loss of Pokey.

Combine hug man with mourn cactus.

That trailer for the game was pretty rad, dude. But y'know what it's time for now? That's right. It's time for Dropsy to give that ornery old sheriff a big ol' hug. :)

So glad to see Dropsy return. Your art talent has such a magical SCUMM feel. Makes me want to boot up my Commodore 64 and find my disk collection.

Screw the sheriff. Go back into the mine and find some explosives. The drat cave murdered your cactus friend: IT MUST DIE.

Sorry about the wait. I've been working on the teaser trailer for the game, which can be seen in the Games Dropsy thread. Let's keep this thread 100% CYoA! Any questions/comments about the Kickstarter or game should go there, and there alone.

Also, updates will be more regular now. :)

I know he won't use it, but I like the idea of eating bullets to sustain himself. The gun could be handy!

With permission, of course. He might appreciate it more if you just painted his hat, though.

I love being the goddamn BATMAN.
I would think that we'd want to figure out what the motivation this mystery-midriff-flaunting man has for attempting to murder us. I say we examine his hat, as last time pretty much every person who was out to get us the first time was wearing a hat.

This is also an argument for painting the sheriff's hat: I mean, after all, we should play it safe when it comes to our friends.

You need to take the bad guy's guns, but make sure to throw away the bullets first. Wouldn't want to hurt anyone.
