Project Update: All Night Breakfast at The Midnight Owl...

Hey there,

Let me tell you a little bit about the free game that digital and physical backers will receive in PDF format.

All Night Breakfast at The Midnight Owl is a solo podcasting game.... woah... back up.

Okay, so the premise of the game is that you have come into some money (how is part of the game) and now you can tell your boss where to shove it and head off to the Pacific Northwest to start your own podcast investigating everything that's slightly off-tilt in the world.

We're talking cryptids, UFOs, government consipracies, forest cults and the rest. Think X-Files, Twin Peaks, True Detective etc.

The game uses a deck of cards and some dice to reveal locations and clues as you go off on the hunt for weird, wonderful and possibly dangerous things. Each night you will head out on your investigations, returning to the relative safety of a 24 hour cafe, The Midnight Owl, where you can collect your thoughts and create your podcast.

The game has two creative elements:

1. Journaling your investigations.
2. (optional) Create your podcast script and record it if you like!

I think this game is going to scratch that weird stuff itch you might have, but also encourage you to be creative in other areas. If you know my general undercurrent to games, you know that's a really important thing for me: games that push the players creatively.

I really can't wait to get Wires in the Woods and All Night Breakfast at The Midnight Owl into your hands and see what you do with them.

As always, please let me know in the comments if you have any questions!

Tim (& Simon, who is hearing many of these details for the first time in this update, though he is aware of the game!)
