"Wild & Free: A True Story" or how we forgot about Professor Porpoise: Adjunct Faculty Advisor to the Apocalypse and learned to love the boto

Mike and I have been chipping away at a little weekend side project of ours for a month or so. He’s got a prototype up and running, and while the swimming mechanic is similar to PP:AFAA, we’ve added some cool new stuff that I think will be pretty compelling gameplay wise. Basically it’s [...]

Inspired game idea: Stratastencil gameplay
