Early on Tuesday, the Oh My God! There’s An Axe In My Head Kickstarter campaign reached its primary goal. We have less than ten days before the end of the campaign, so if you want to be one of the first to have this long-awaited game, you only have until the time specified.
Hugundous thanks to all our pledgers!!
“Oh My God, This Game’s Getting Published!” –Sam Brown, creator of Lyssan
Yes, our Kickstarter campaign has begun. In little more than 40 days from now, we expect to turn the wheels of production on this long-awaited game. Dozens, maybe hundreds of people have played Oh My God! There’s An Axe In My Head over the last seven years, and have asked again and again, “Where can I buy it?”
Well, Dave Fooden has put it together at last in a Kickstarter program. Click here and place your pledge–at this writing, we’re off to a great start, and we don’t want any of our longtime fans to miss out!
AND! Kickstarter has featured us on their weekly blog! “New Projects Are An Axe In Our Heads (In A Good Way):
The artwork looks a lot like what would happen if John Kovalic and Winsor McCay made an art baby, which is to say it looks really cool.
Whoa! Now that makes me want to kick back and play half a game of Munchkin while Burne Hogarth cleans half my brushes! I am abashed, and very honored by your words, Cindy Au of Kickstarter project. We will see to that Oh My God! There’s An Axe In My Head will be worthy of those names.
Here’s a unique video of NewsCorp heir Elisabeth Murdoch explaining to former CEO Rebekah Brooks to fall on her sword. Shortly after, Ms. Brooks was arrested in the phone-hacking scandal. (H/t to Iron Spike for tweeting the footage. Karl Hadrika captured the moment; I’m not sure either quite knew what they had…)
Rebekah Brooks spoke at Chris’ girlfriend’s graduation last year. Brooks accepted an honorary award and spoke about how her experience at News of the World should inspire this new generation of creative writers.
Chris was in attendance, and does not remember Brooks mentioning how she was listening in to everyone’s voicemail and texts. It’s one of those pro tips that would have really helped all categories of newbie writers for those times when they run out of ideas of their own.
News for July 2011!
Attention all Axe In My Head fans!
After several years, and two game companies expressing interest, it has come down to us to put the game out ourselves. David Fooden has begun Game Company No. 3, and is developing a Kickstarter campaign to finance production. Help us get this game in your hands at long last:
Laughing Squid is making us migrate to the Cloud.
But the stuff is all still there.
See y’all in a bit…
