August 17^th – Funniest Game you've played

The day's been long, hot, unrelenting. No time for lunch today, the schedule was just too full to make time. There'll be no dinner waiting either, there's no one who cares enough to make it for you. Might as well stop for a beer, maybe chat up a barfly, break the monotony, kill the loneliness, if just for a few hours. Maybe someone will remember you this time, probably not. You know them, you see them every day, know each of their names, and what most of them do for a living. They've told you time and time again, a skipping record of conversations, a repetition of false bravado and candid failures. They don't know you though, They don't remember your name, they don't remember what you do, they don't remember having talked with you the night before. They never do. You are nothing. What you do doesn't make any difference, you don't matter.

You'll open up that sad and sorrowful door, step through the threshold, and nothing, nothing, will ever be the same again.

Your depressing watering hole will be gone, replaced by the strange and unusual. Standing out among bipedal dogs in overcoats, Elves, Dwarves, and Disgustingly Cute Furry Things, is the ugliest C.H.U.D. you've ever seen pass for human. Almost seven feet of scales, bumps, humps, warts, and scars. It'll be behind the bar, it'll notice you, it'll approach slowly and say, “The house specialty is the Singularity. What'll ya have?”

Welcome to Tales From The Floating Vagabond, a game of trans-dimensional hi-jinks, where up is down, and left is yellow. It's hard to know exactly what you'll get with a game this purposefully whacky.

The primary mechanic is the 'Shtick'. This is basically a super charged, comedic version of a trope, common to popular media.

There's The Rambo effect, with which, no projectile weapon fired towards you at close range will hit, ever. No matter what.

Then there's The Trench Coat Effect. It lets you conceal any number of absurdly large items within your overcoat, and gives you a chance to have anything anyone happens to ask for, randomly in your pockets.

Just two of the many, mad effects available to characters in this over the top laugh fest of a game.

Really it's fun. Relax, have a smoke, a few beers, and go with it. You won't be disappointed.
