I have seen a post similar to it long ago. If it is not a straight copy and paste it is a real post for another game. Maybe a stretch goal will be to reveal where the post is from.

I'm super excited to be working with the team and look forward to making some fun audiovisual stuff for the game. Like everyone, I was a huge fan of Barkley 1, so it's an honor to join up and I'll do my best to help bring the world to life!

Thank you for Django Unchained Season 3 opening. I have nothing but faith in you.

When a tree grows, it is soft and pliable. But when it's dry and hard, it dies.

Hardness and strength are death's companions. Flexibility and softness are the embodiment of life.

That which has become hard shall not triumph.

Those pump rants are actually real forum posts?

Half of them are fake but there's at least two or three that are real. Plus that one guy in the dating service who lists like 8 specific, weird traits that his girlfriend must have is from sonic-chu or something.

The one about banging girls and high-fiving your bros instead of enjoying the immaculate world of Final Fantasy VII is from our very own Games forum.

The only truck pump post that "breaks character" and is just an off-topic diatribe is the one in the b-ball dimension. I'm pretty sure that's the only one that was actually ripped wholesale from a forums post.


Truck pump's posts are just super well-written.

From what I remember, Chef said that there were two rants that weren't written by him. One was by a guy who played the demo and thought the rants were serious. The other was from SA, I think.

The only thing I fear about this sequel is the loss of my favorite running gag in the first one, where every person dribbling a basketball is depicted by the same terrible sprite.

Also I am also deeply afraid this game won't sell ten million copies and change the face of video gaming forever. The edutainment genre sorely needs a game changer like The Magical Realms of Tr na ng: Escape from Necron 7 - Revenge of Cuchulainn: The Official Game of the Movie - Chapter 2 of the Hoopz Barkley SaGa (or TMRoTnn:EfN7RoCTOGotMC2otHBS for short) to revitalize it and advance it. Too long has the title of "greatest edutainment title" been held in the ruthless clutches of the cuthroat bastards behind Oregon Trail.

Still haven't got around to playing the first game, but the theme song alone has given me hours of enjoyment.
Chucking down some money because the whole kickstarter page is hilarious and if that's any indication of how the game will end up I'm pretty confident I'll get my money's worth.

What shall we do with him? A permaban, perhaps? Probate him for a few years? Or...shall we employ a big red custom title? You, the goons of SA, shall decide his fate.
If the 'start from Barkley 1 save' goal is reached, don't forget to have there be a flag in the Barley 2's save system that's set when a game is started from a Barkley 1 save, in case you ever make a third game. That way, it'll be easy to tell if someone has taken a save all the way through the series. Such people deserve to be rewarded.

Thank you good sir, I shall take that advice to heart once I mouse over that spoiler tag and see what it is.

Also, according to some arbitrary predictions this Kickstarter is on trend to break $400K. You guys should have no trouble thinking of more stretch goals, like buying stretch pants for one random backer, or a video of you rolling around in that kickstarter cash in front of some poor orphans.

The "trend" listed on their site is more or less worthless. It's just drawing a line through the last few hours' donations out to the end. It'll slowly converge the actual value as time goes on but I wouldn't expect it go get anywhere near that high without some major propaganda going on.

I'm having trouble with the first Barkley on Windows 8. I reach the cutscene where the janitor causes a chaos dunk but within a second of the effect starting, the game just crashes. Is there any way to get around this?

Issue with a sound .dll apparently. Try restarting your computer.

This is because of supersound.dll and it's a pretty rare problem, but it's fixed by restarting your computer. We have no idea why this happens.

Wait, what? Janitor causes a chaos dunk? I'm not sure which part you're talking about. Is this in the beginning or the end of the game?

It's in the Spalding building, during a flashback, the one where Dr. Davis reveals he's putting in more manufactured slamium and Dr. Cosby leaves.

EDIT: I also had crashes happen sometimes in battle when Vinceborg's laser was on screen, and when a lot of balldroids died at once. They didn't happen 100% of the time, but frequently enough to force me to restart a few times, and avoid drawing out battles.

Thanks for the workaround, though. :)

OH. We'll investigate this, we've never heard of this crash before but it is possible to skip cutscenes by pressing the cancel button a few times. I'd recommend that for now.
