Just popped in to give you a small preview of the incredible leap in 3D graphics detail that we got when we switched over from DX10 to DX11:

There is a number of gun's graphics now, both hud and ingame, and depending on how far we are willing to go (infinity), there'll be a lot of different looking gun's. There already is a lot.

I'm trying to play through Barkley Gaiden for the first time and I'm having kind of a bummer of a time because Vinceborg's eye laser keeps crashing the game randomly :(

I recall this sort of problem happening before, are you playing the PC or Mac version?

I'll see if I can get the ToG overlords to spill their gut's on this matter.

ToG overlord's have spoken.

It is a problem with the SuperSound gamemaker extension, apparently you'll get rid of the problem if you restart your machine.

This is all the corporate rear end in a top hat's would tell me.


Good luck.

I was given the permission from my ToG overlord's to warn anyone coming over the ToG booth: A right hand is required for the full ToG experience. If you do not have a right hand, you can substitute your left hand as such by relocating your thumb on the other side.

The ToG team has arrived at P.A.X. and are preparing for the trials ahead.

I anxiously wait for the first insufferable 300 pound fedora nerd to refuse to leave the booth until he has 100% completed the demo and character creation.

I wanna see some vids of people doing the character creation live.

Chef told me that some guy called Maxwell Mcgee (gaming journalist(?)), did character creation and when he came out of the astral lounge, he was absolutely flabbergasted and had the best look on his face. It was a life changing experience for him.

I wish I'd seen that.

Hey guess what nerds I played Barkley 2 at PAX today and it was funny and fun as gently caress. I'm also the first non ToGlord to go through the Barkley 2 character creation, it was a transcendental experience in which I got interviewed by a real (real) wizard and I even got a code so I can use this character when the game drops.

I don't want to bother you with stupid bullshit, but can you tell us what you liked and disliked the most about character creation (and the demo)? I'm always trying to improve and fix up CC and it has stagnated inside ToG'sters so much that we need some outside people telling us how awful it really is.

I'll have to ask the tog sludgelords what the Q3 2014 estimation is based on because I just don't see it taking that long with the way things have been shat out recently, even if it was for pax mostly. But who knows. There's still a whole lotta game to be made.

Oh, did the release date get pushed back? I was under the impression you were planning for Christmas 2013, but I was wondering how realistic that goal was once the stretch goals started rolling in.

Hmm, apparently only about 60 people did the live CC at pax, and whole lot more played the game.

I'm disappointed at this ratio.



This was because the ToG booth was mistaken by many as a maintenance closet and the ToG staff was mistaken as the janitorial staff, so people just ran past it.

Set up a camera and record the Wizard doing his magic. Set up a mic under the table so everyone can hear.

Before Pax I told Chef that they should make a portrait/painting (of me) that they would hang in the wizards booth, and it would have the eyes cut out and replaced with webcams that stream directly to twitch tv or something, so people can join in. Also microphones in the ears and a speaker in the mouth to make the booth haunted.

It never happened. Instead ToG overlords went and bought a wheelbarrow full of doritos.

Are you guys adding gamepad support? And are you still hoping to release it this year? I'm gonna take a week off work just to play this, seriously :ohdear:

I'm fairly sure gamepad support is in already (they used controllers at pax(?)), although right now it seems to be a bit picky on what type of controller works, but if you have a pretty new one I think you are gonna be fine. If not, joytokey, the ghetto way of having controller support.

As for the release date, unless there is some sort of divine intervention, this is going to be a 2014 game. Sorry.

Be sure to check out the awful ToG booth, you will appreciate everything in life so much more after experiencing that disgusting hellhole.

I really hope someone films it too. It was so amazing at PAX and so hard to describe what's fantastic about it.

Now that I think about it, there would be some problems with getting the sound recorded too... I'm not going to say anything beyond that because I'm afraid I'll ruin someones enjoyment of it if I tell how it goes down.

MaGfest ends today, and I want to remind everyone to rent a locker or a safe inside a bank vault of the bank of your choosing. This is, of course, to deposit the character creation receipt in safety. When the game is released they will be sold for thousands of dollars on ebay.

So which will you choose? A bucket of gold, or a premade character?

Tough moral choices.


This is my premonition for the year 2014.

Looks like there is a speedrun of Bakely 1 done by the AGDQ (?) tomorrow, and the ToG bad boys just might drop in uninvited. Or so I have heard, it's probably all just a load of bogus. There's all sorts of threats on twitter at least.

Anyways, who stopped by the T.o.G. booth at MaGfest due to morbid curiosity? Did you think the B2 demo was the worst garbage on earth? Did you keep checking your watch in the Character Creation booth while trying to hide your yawns?

I'm very sorry the unhygienic ToG dorks and their unsanitary wizard booth gave you diseases. They cut down on expenses and built the booth entirely from stuff they found in the sewers, like old bathrobes, towels, doritos posters, drapes and broom sticks.

EDIT: I'm sure they can send you one of the pillows if you missed yours.
