If you're willing to risk horrible death by carbon monoxide poisoning, you could always shut the toads into a box or bucket (something with high walls they can't easily escape from), cover the top with a wet towel, and run a hose from a running car's exhaust pipe into the container. I heard that sometimes folks kill stray unwanted animals that way.

Well, I imagine a cold-blooded critter like a toad would simply fall asleep in freezing conditions, long before they'd suffer from frostbite or whatever other agonies await such a death.

Basically, it's been in development for 5 years or so. Like DF, they periodically release playable builds, which people mod and stuff. Problem is that, yes, they kinda went silent for these past 9 months. Even before that though, back when we were getting updates every month or so, they'd still catch fairly ridiculous amounts of hate.

It's not quite a kickstarter thing, in fact I think they pre-date kickstarter. They way they have it set up, you pre-order the game which gives you access to the playable alphas and the full game (whenever that happens).

9 months, yeah. They say they're planning bi-weekly updates, we'll see if they can stick to it.

Wolfire Games (the folks making Overgrowth) released a video showcasing a new alpha build that has been/will be released. They also apparently massively upsized their team and plan to get updates out sooner.

The sheer amount of vitriol in the YouTube video comments made me WTF today. I wouldn't have thought that YT comments could still surprise me but jesus. You'd think that the Wolfire guys robbed them at gunpoint, raped their pets, and then proceeded to not actually make any sort of game at all from the way folks are going on.

I'm afraid that I can't offer any advice for toad disposal.

But can I say that your avatar fits perfectly with that post?

Okay, so after all that Prequel talk the other day, I decided to check it out one more time to see if it got any better.

...holy crap has it really been two years since I last read this?

...things are...actually not going too horribly? For now. I'm sure it will all go to crap for Katia again soon.

Welp, all caught up now. Guess I'll check back in a few months.

Grifen goes to (9,21) and provides moral support to anyone who needs it.

: "That's what I thought too. This 'prophet', a fellow by the name of Mason, managed to smuggle in a lockpick which he used to spring us from our cells. We snuck out as quickly as possible, hijacked a ship, and sailed it to the mainland. We left Kizamo because...well, they don't exactly treat non-mages kindly there, especially once they found out where we had come from. Plus the whole imminent doom-of-the-world thing."

: "Fair enough. Okay, here goes: Tomik, his sister Senija, the priest Albert, Lillian, and I were all prisoners at the Ixionise prison Strohnban. There were a couple of others, but they left on their own. Anyway, we broke out with the help of some sort of prophet and Laura, who was one of the guards. We sorta threatened her to come with us and now she's along for the ride. We met the others later on while we ran for Kizamo, and when we got there a strange mage kidnapped Lillian for...some reason." He wasn't being evasive; he really couldn't remember. "Anyway, we saved her but the mage got away saying something about a gate, and then we found out about Ixion going to war, and we flew here on a boat..." His voice trailed off as he realized just how outrageous and rambling the tale was, and decided to sum it all up. "Basically, we're all dangerous people, some of us are wanted for high crimes, and the fate of the world might be in jeopardy."

The thief shrugged and sighed.

: "Hell, I don't know. It probably could have been better handled. I don't know for sure, but I think that they're both each other's first romance, and they can get a bit stupid over it." He thought for a moment before continuing. "The girl, Lillian...I didn't think she'd be foolish enough to want to run off on her own. Either she's a great deal more airheaded than I would have thought possible, or she's got some major issues that she doesn't want anyone else to know about. Things that she thinks would drive Tomik and anyone else away."

: "...yes, yes we probably would have. I didn't realize that this was the entire first level."
