Project Tingler [True Name Concealed Until Release to Protect From Dark Magics] is a brilliant blend of classic adventure games, dating sims, and the world of Amazon Kindle Sensation and Hugo Award Nominee Dr. Chuck Tingle (Space Raptor Butt Invasion; Slammed in the Butthole by My Concept of Linear Time; Pounded in the Butt by My Hugo Award Loss) from game developer Zoë Quinn (Depression Quest; Framed; Betrayal at House on the Hill: Widow's Walk), to be released on computrons of the PC/Mac variety in early 2017.

We need the help of True Buckaroos like you to help us Prove Love Is Real, because we are making the entire game available to to the world without a mandatory price tag. In other words, it's pay-what-you-can.

EXPLORE THE UNIQUE WORLD OF THE TINGLEVERSE IN GLORIOUS FULL MOTION VIDEO. Using long-abandoned Full Motion Video (FMV) game techniques to emulate the singular style of Chuck Tingle’s renowned stock-photo covers, the game not only looks like it was summoned directly from Chuck's imagination, it also evokes the joyful spirit of his stories that we love. That said, you don't have to know the Tingleverse to be a Buckaroo. Project Tingler is ultimately a story about positive sexuality, self-acceptance, love and personal growth. Like Doctor Tingle’s (Ph.d in Sensual Massage from DeVry Institute) 4,000 word masterpieces, Project Tingler will be a brief but sexily refreshing respite, rather than an hours-long epic journey.

More at the link. Looks pretty damn hilarious actually, I love how far they're committing to this.

Also, Jim Sterling's in it.

The goal is $69,420 which is nice.

I'm so confused as to what all of this means.

 

[Rondras]

...
If this gets the money that proves that people is freakin crazy.

 

[belteshazzar]

wtf

 

[Ibuki]

Take some time to delve into the deep lore of CHUCK TINGLE and maybe you will understand.

 

[BaronMonstro]

This is the collaboration I never knew I wanted.

 

[FeMui]

Are they just making gay porn?

 

[Salarians]

 

[Delusibeta]

Wait, I thought Kickstarter banned porn? Unless this isn't porn, in which case it isn't much of a Chuck Tingle game.

 

[CertifiedFP]

Of course the week I hear about Chuck Tingle and his A+++ literature this gets announced.

What is this world coming to.

 

[Toxi]

From the man who brought us

 

[Kalor]

This might be the collaboration I never knew I wanted until now.

 

[Nester99]

"Butt Cop?" really?

 

[AlexFlame116]

From the man who brought us

Oh THAT guy. This is going to be really interesting.

 

[BiggNife]

I dont get a single aspect of this

Chuck Tingle (real name unknown, as far as I know) is a guy who has made a lot of money off of writing insane absurdist erotic romance novels with names like "Pounded In The Butt By My Own Butt" and "Professor T-Rex Teaches Me Gayness" that are parodying the erotic romance genre.

Zoe Quinn is a game designer best known for Depression Quest who has been trying to make an FMV adventure game for some time. At some point that project became this.

I think the concept of Chuck Tingle is funny but also I can't see myself playing an entire game about things like having sex with a butt.

 

[SexyFish]

I'm in.

Tingle can do no wrong.

 

[iiicon]

The stinger at the end of the pitch video with Joey Ryan and Zoe Quinn is great.

"Wait. Are you guys making garage porn?"
"No no... ha... uh I... no... not unless you're into it."

 

[Mesoian]

So it's a VN?

 

[tim_pkmn89]

Wait, I thought Kickstarter banned porn? Unless this isn't porn, in which case it isn't much of a Chuck Tingle game.

There's been 18+ VNs on it before.

 

[GamerJM]

is this Frog Fractions 2

 

[AtomskEater]

Some games with erotic content have been funded on there, although they don't put it front and center in the campaign. MuvLuv is the biggest one I can think of, pretty sure they're patching in the ero content if they haven't already.

 

[Gentleman Jack]

Too bad the thread title can't respect the full title of Hugo Award Nominee Dr. Chuck Tingle. It's like A Pimp Named Slickback, you gotta say the whole thing.

 

[Admiral Woofington]

this guy LMAO

I want to support it for his hilarious titles/covers alone.

 

[BitStyle]

And I thought Hatoful Boyfriend was some weird shit.

I'm quite surprised by the looks and production of it; pretty quality for a VN.

 

[LumpOfCole]

How much do I have to pledge to get a Sega CD version?

 

[RecRoulette]

Wait, I thought Chuck Tingle was like a made up dude. Holy shit. (I know it's a pseudonym, but I didn't realize there were people actually writing those books)

 

[Frozenprince]

Yeah this is uh.

Yeah.

[Ibuki]

Finally a game where I can get hard with my buds and become a true buckaroo.

 

[banefirelord]

Chuck Tingle is a national treasure.

 

[Struct09]

This is weird AF. I'll let you guys do the Kickstarting and watch from afar to see how it turns out.

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Wha-- I... no, but... eh? The fuck?

 

[MrCunningham]

I'm all for more FMV games in the world, but this is... uhh....

 

[Catvoca]

I'm in.

Tingle can do no wrong.

Holy shit, how have I never heard of this guy before?

 

[PsychoSoldier]

Wait, I thought Chuck Tingle was like a made up dude. Holy shit. (I know it's a pseudonym, but I didn't realize there were people actually writing those books)

No one really knows for sure. There was a great article written about it.

[Leafhopper]

...Okay.

 

[Charles Alan Ratliff]

Backed.

 

[Jakoo]

This should be Kickstarted entirely by the YouTube/LP community because they will be the ones that ultimately get the most value out of it.

 

[Par Score]

Zoe Quinn and Chuck Tingle joining forces is like a real-world superhero team-up.

 

[patapuf]

TIL what Chuck Tingle is.

Also, FMV games are really coming back, aren't they?

 

[Massive Duck. C.M.]

The interview she did about this was funny enough but

CRINE LMAO

 

[Hesh]

I don't understand the kids these days.

 

[hampig]

Looks like something somebody will like. I'm not sure I'm the somebody they are targeting.

I do enjoy that there are "unicorn butt cops" though. That seems nice.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

That is indeed weird.

 

[Goron2000]

This is like a compilation of failed memes. When keeping it real goes very wrong.

 

[TheSeks]

I do believe you mean: Pounded By The Pound: Turned Gay By The Socioeconomic Implications Of Britain Leaving The European Union

[Spiral Insanity]

This is awesome. Also, holy shit @ Joey.
