Holy stromboli, I thought I was the only one around here who knew about that game! There's something strangely compelling about it in spite of how it completely and utterly fails in just about every aspect of game design. Or maybe it's directly because of that :P

In any case, at least the new BoC album still hasn't taken as long to finish as Limbo Of The Lost did yet!
The Crappy Games Wiki wrote:The game had been under development for 13 years (since 1994 to 2007). Due to this, most of various elements and gameplay mechanics were horribly aged at the release. (source)

Also the main character even looks a bit like one of the BoC brothers if you squint hard enough lmao

If The Campfire Headphase was a butterfly, would Acid Memories be the caterpillar?
Spoiler: show
Unfortunately I have no clue lmao. But while you're here, go ahead and check out some of my tunes! You might dig 'em and stuff!

That game belongs in a museum. I still can't believe it got onto store shelves and am not even sure if the fact that 99% of the game is made of stolen assets is out of laziness, frustration, or some form of artistic statement. They can't all be Barkley: SU&J Gaiden or I Wanna Be The Guy :lol:

I first saw that ending on some YT compilation video of weird video game endings (the game had to be brand new at that time, unbeknownst to me) and later got to see the game in full through Vinesauce. Mandalore Gaming did a great review/overview of it if you haven't seen it:

I feel your pain man. Now that MDG officially announced the new album and the BOC Twitter stopped liking tweets, there's been less signs. This is probably the time we gotta buckle up for the long grind til next year! :D

Yes that, but also the seemingly nonsensical replacement of HI’s profile and banner pic… maddening! Lol

If I’m not mistaken the Facebook page had an all black banner / pfp, but they changed it to all black again for seemingly no reason
Ooooo, it's pink!

Super weird- he updated his photo to the photoshopped pic, accepted my follow request, and then deleted his Instagram.

Screenshot of his IG with the new pic:

The only confirmed IG and Twitter accounts are @boardsofcanada and @boctransmission, respectively.

I'm not ruling out the legitimacy of the solo accounts, but we've seen absolutely nothing to suggest that they're official.
