In the next few weeks we'll be reformulating our design and Kickstarter plan.

Perhaps they will give you all the funding. Lets hope they dont ask for creative control."Square's DMCA notice is just the first step towards totally funding the project and taking no creative control! THAT IS HOW THE WORLD WORKS.
Folks - there has been no C&D issued, only a Kickstarter takedown. We haven't received any other communication and are attempting to re-engage with square.Those of you that were under the impression that we cleared this with Square - we've been pretty open that we had elements within the company's divisions that supported our efforts, but that tacit approval did not equal legal go-ahead. It was actually spelled out in the Kickstarter that this was the case.We fully understood what we were doing, and we were honest about it with all brokers involved. This honesty and transparency will continue, and we will keep you up to date on the project and it's status as we learn more about Square's intentions. We have been bombarding them with communication by both snail mail, email and other methods since November.

Semi-major Kickstarter failure:Quote from: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/forkingpath/the-doom-that-came-to-atlantic-city/posts/548030This is not an easy update to write. The short version: The project is over, the game is canceled.After much deliberation I've had to make this decision. I've informed Keith and Lee and neither at all happy with this situation. Every possible mistake was made, some due to my inexperience in board game publishing, others due to ego conflicts, legal issues and technical complications. No matter the cause though these could all have been avoided by someone more experienced and I apparently was not that person.

Whether you are here for business, pleasure, or to escape the terrible blizzard that has raged for hundreds of years, Octopus City has plenty to offer. From the entertaining, family-friendly activities to a bustling nightlife and a variety of wonderful attractions, Octopus City has it all.A marvel of modern engineering and a testament to human resilience, Octopus City is the last surviving octopus city in the world. Our brilliant scientists managed to keep the gigantic octopus alive using a complex system of steam machines. As the last human bastion, our city represents the beating heart of a dying planet. What are you waiting for? Octopus City awaits you.For new visitors such as yourself, having spent your entire life digging tunnels under the city in search for fuel, your eyes and body will need time to adapt to the dazzling lights and clean air. Once you feel more comfortable, please report to the Central Administration for briefing, numbering, filing, and indexing.One last word of advice: Pay no heed to the harmless tentacles creeping through cracks in the ground or holes in the walls. Under no circumstance should you attempt to drink the blue blood running through them. Octopus blood (Octoblood) addiction is a serious problem that the Administration is committed to fighting, and while Octoblood-induced hallucinations might seem like a pleasant experience, addicts end up consumed in their illusions. Say "NO" to Octoblood!We hope you enjoy your time in Octopus City, the greatest, largest, most populous, and only city in the world. Welcome to the human race!
Octopus City Blues is an adventure game where you explore the eponymous city and interact with its inhabitants. It takes place in a small but vibrant part of the city. We've opted to limit the scope of the game to make every NPC important. Each NPC has his or her own daily schedule, likes and dislikes, and opinions about the world and other characters. We want to create a dynamic city that's always changing. For example, you might visit the central plaza to find people gathered around the dead body of a homeless man. On another day, you might witness a musical performance in the same place. These small events are not part of the main plot, but serve to enrich the world and can lead to optional side-quests.In addition to exploration, the main activity in Octopus City Blues is interacting with NPCs. Dialogue trees work similarly to other adventure games and RPGs, but in many cases the visible dialogue options will be selected from a larger list of possible choices. This is based on certain criteria such as your relationship with the NPC, your past actions, the equipped items, and more. Aside from adding to the replay value, this allows influencing the dialogue in a variety of interesting ways.For example, one important element of gameplay is acquiring knowledge. Talking to NPCs and reading books allows you to learn factoids about the city and the people living in it. These factoids are recorded in Kaf's journal and can be used in future encounters. What Kaf knows or doesn't know can drastically change his interactions with certain NPCs.Kaf isn't your average hero. In fact, he's not a hero at all. He is a gutless man, severely lacking in self-confidence. This causes Kaf to get stressed when placed in difficult situations. Stress affects the options Kaf has and causes him to make mistakes that influence the gameplay experience. Stress can be managed by trying to diffuse an escalated situation and by avoiding whatever is worrying Kaf.Another aspect of stress management is guilt. Making choices that Kaf doesn't approve of makes him feel guilty. Guilt makes stress management harder, but also leads to more intriguing choices. Resorting to Octoblood and playing arcade games are some temporary, albeit risky, shortcuts to reduce guilt.Throughout the game, Kaf explores a number of whimsical dreams. Each dream takes place in a different world that has its own inhabitants and story. From the trainee soldier escaping a war-torn island of dung beetles to the aging horse of a notorious cowboy, Kaf assumes many roles and explores weird landscapes. The scope of these dreams greatly depends on the funding, but even at the minimal level we believe that we can provide an engaging and fun experience.
