You'd think there'd be a market for games about playing ornamental statuary that has water pouring out of its mouth when it gets rained on. Like Gargoyle Simulator or something. Who wouldn't buy that. Once every 600 years a git shows up and tries to shoot you up with a rifle, and a maniac […]

@BigJackBrass It's actually about making fun scrappy things with the "the kitchen is free tonight" level of messing about (for some projects). I think you'd enjoy it for the sheer stupidity of some of them.

@BigJackBrass Hedgehogs do sound terrifying in their habit of hedges. They don't present as Capybara though, they sound like something is dragging a Cenobite from Hellraiser back to perdition coupled with quieter occasional "Scuffling"

@BigJackBrass I always think Zevon had a raw quality that was better live. There's a sort of timbre growl just oh so slightly in all that seems to get overproduced out.

For those who don't remember this quality piece of Charnock hand-drawn monstery.

A book opened to Room 345.

"It is a 10 foot by 10 foot room. There is an eel in it. The eel does not attack"

Opposite is a map showing the eel location.

In a sense this is my version of Waiting for Godot.

Scanner Grunge and Grainy Threshold are quite good character names. Originally I was thinking they were quite Cyberpunk, but the more I look at them typed out the more I think of Wilfred Brambell.
