About the Game

The Preposterous Awesomeness of Everything follows an apparently primitive society, attempting to work together to build a glue and tape fueled space rocket. Follow the Majority of People, from disordered chaos (the past), through a disgusting and distorted and horrible AND hilarious kind of faux-democracy (the present (SATIRE! Amirite?!?!)), into the unknowable, irrelevant emptiness of outer space (the future).

Along the journey players will encounter a host of colourful characters, including the mysterious Man with the Little Pencil, the superfluous Man in the Wren Suit and the fabulous Helen. Solve a variety of engaging puzzles where you’ll be forced into making a number of difficult moral decisions, with potential disastrous consequences!

Features:

  • Traditional verb-based interface

  • Politically correct verbiage (including 'befuddle', 'disrespect' and 'pray-for')

  • Unique collage-based art affixed to a truly human aesthetic

  • A cameo appearance from Felix Kjellberg (PewDiePie)

  • ~15,000 words (3-4 hours?) of intellectually stimulating satirical shenanigans

  • A joke about white blood cells

  • Prohibitively experimental electronic music

  • Irrelevant duck
