Hello, Worlds Beyond Number fans. Craig Sumke here with an exciting Kickstarter announcement.
What exciting announcement does Craig Sumke share?
Coming soon, Bag It or Tag It Home Edition. Ever wanted to play my game at home but couldn't find the NPC generator I'm always using? Pledge my Kickstarter and you'll receive... Craig, you missed the boat, man. There are already too many game Kickstarters. We need to throw our full weight behind our friends at Worlds Beyond Number.
What is the significance of the NPC generator mentioned?
But Yoda with an H, they've already raised over 1.4 million. Are you sure? These fans seem hungry. Yes, but this is no time to split the market. They've got stretch goals for more signed book plates, a plush, exclusive art, and a certain someone's juke recipe. I need that juke recipe, Craig. All right. We'll head to Kickstarter and back the first official Worlds Beyond Number graphic novel. And maybe someday we'll launch Bag It or Tag It Home Edition. Craig, it's just an NPC generator. If anything, you should tell them about the original soundtrack for The Wizard, the Witch, and the Wild One with over 157 tracks of original music. Can't a guy plug his barely thought out game show in peace? No, Craig. No, you can't.
Back our friend's Kickstarter before time runs out on July 15th for all the exclusive goodies. This is the sound of worlds beyond number.
I think you live in essentially Angkor Wat at its heyday. The fact that your family is so into this heavy industry, there's a, not irony, but a turning away from what would be like brutalist architecture here to very like temple-like ornamentation. As you're like moving through like massive marble halls, everything is meticulously carved and close and decorated. None of it feels like the scale at which your family operates because that is for business and that is the energy your family projects. while it holds itself much more dearly on the inside. So you move through this temple to your family and your great and storied history. You see tapestries and carvings and paintings, all of the names that you as one of...
Many trends in your family see repeated again and again over history, over time. This system is named after the founders of your family. Your planet's nickname, Corkall, is another Trent name that is passed around. There is nothing you can do inside of your home. And when I say home, I mean 12 planets and two stars. All of that is yours and your birthright. You and many others, but yours in such a meaningful way. You never escape that. The names are there. The faces are there. The expectation for what to be and do and grow and attempt mightily surrounds you and chases you to... A very casual dining room. It's almost like a bit of a lanai in the middle of a courtyard. Like there's beautiful like little fans over a reeded ceiling pouring down like gentle, hyper-cold air relative to the heat that you know exists outside of whatever barrier is maintaining the very calm temperatures here too.
And your mother is just absolutely planted in her data pad and doesn't hear your approach. Are you still wearing your slippers?
Yes, I would still be wearing my slippers.
Yeah. So I think you're moving pretty silently just as a matter of form from the shoes that you're in. But your dad, Gaurav, like looks up immediately, fully excited, like turns off his data pad and rushes over to like greet you into the space. And usher you over to the table. He takes you up in a big hug. You are a carbon copy of your father. And your father probably has maybe 80 pounds on you. And a receding hairline from a life well and long lived. But other than that, it's like looking in a mirror at... of you at maybe the most overtly joyful you've ever been. Like, I don't think you can remember in recent memory a time where your dad looked on you with anything other than like the most pleased and delighted smile.
I embrace him.
My boy.
Good morning, father.
Oh, I got the note. The wave barrier.
Yes, I got bit last night.
I'm sorry, by what?
Mosquito. No, it's quite all right. I asked Wynne to talk to the night attendant, and it'll be handled.
Okay, okay.
