      You have to build a tolerance for urinal cakes. It helps to have a bathroom problem. Not that I have a bathroom problem! I just like to go a few times after work!

      I have to admit, I saw Dan Harmon talk about playing Prototype 2 because he'd been fired as the head show-runner of Community by Sony. Which sucks by the way - but then I saw this update saying they were going to be talking about Prototype 2's release, and for some reason I thought they were talking about the Radical Entertainment game. Took AGES to click(sic) they were talking about the next pre-test of the SPACEVENTURE. Geeze, you eat ONE urinal cake in a fit of madness, and suddenly you lose brain cells.....

      It's so exciting to be amongst people of such dedication Jason! It's really when people are in their darkest most desperate hour that, I feel, they are able to give there best. When people really take stock and figure out the important things and make the ultimate commitment. I can only hope that myself, and all of us, are able to experience the same life altering and soul evolving experience before this is over.

      I am so psyched for the second prototype. Whereas the first one was just testing the waters for technology, I feel that we're going to really get something interesting with this next one. Thanks for taking the time to talk to us folks while the forests around our houses are burning to the ground and every highway out of town is closed.... wait... that might just have been me. But I came on here! That should show you how dedicated I am! I figured if I was going to die, the least I could do was make sure that I pledged the maximum amount allowable on my credit card. With my death, I would contribute to the life of this game.

      Man that was really fun getting together with everyone! Too bad I was at work and couldn't get properly boozed(it's a Monday after all). Hopefully Mark will get better soon and ramp up his pixel pushing. I really liked seeing the concept art. It didn't strike me before, but he was probably one of the very FIRST computer game concept artists. Back then, everything would have been natural median and scanned. Crazy! So many people today only do digital and can't do natrual. Sorta like the advent of electric guitars producing generations of kids who couldn't handle acoustic... Hope I'm not making you feel too old buddy! :P

      Why would anyone want to read the comments under Update 12? that is so 2 hours behind Update 13! Besides, Update 13 has all the info that update 12 had and more, it's really more of an update for an update: http://cdn.memegenerator.net/instances/400x/20719345.jpg

      @Gamespygeek: You're about to hand off $1000 but you can't even read a simple link that says "Cancel Pledge". Secondly, they haven't made a game TOGETHER in 20 years. Your lack of reading ability shows that you're in no position to be criticizing others.

      Creator Gamespygeek on May 21, 2012

      i just listened to the twitchTV stream. are you kidding me/us? you guys can't even figure out how to use Twitch and you expect us to continue to back this project thinking you can make a game after being out of it for 20 years? i'm at 14 minutes and counting and you guys haven't done anything except bitch and moan about your lifes. i originally pledged $1,000 but i just reduced it to $1 does anybody know how to cancel a pledge?
