Paradigm caught my eye on Twitter because of the image of a sloth with a toupee. I needed to find out more about this game immediately. The game is “a surreal point-and-click adventure game set in the strange and post apocalyptic world of Krusz; a land inspired by a mix of Eastern Europe and the 70s & 80s.” The game is named after the main character, Paradigm, a mutant, and is set in post-apocalypse 2026. Paradigm is also an aspiring musician! The team already has an alpha demo up and running, which you can get from the Kickstarter page. The page also has amazing, weird art that REALLY makes me want to play – like a pug who is also a wrestler. What?!

Here’s the official plot:

“Paradigm’s unfortunate life begins at DUPA genetics, a company that makes its millions by growing and selling prodigy children to the rich and powerful, who don’t want to leave their inheritance to their poor excuse for biological children.

Something went wrong in Paradigm’s growing process and he was left horribly mutated. To save their reputation, DUPA dumped the hideous infant in a nearby post Soviet abandoned town, forcing him to fend for himself.

Paradigm didn’t let this get him down and found solace in music. He dreams of becoming the best electronic music artist the world has ever seen! Unfortunately for him, being the protagonist of an adventure game, life isn’t that simple. Paradigm’s past is set to catch up with him and he must reluctantly step up as the world’s saviour. When really he’d rather finish his latest EP.”

Rewards include: being mentioned in the credits, HD wallpapers, the game, the soundtrack, the art book, be in the game, beta access, and a make your own adventure game workshop.

There is a demo available on the Kickstarter page. I really hope this game gets funded; the world looks like it will be fun and hilarious to explore. It’s not too far off! Back Paradigm before Monday, October 6, 2014 at 12:00pm EST. You can also vote on Greenlight here, follow on Twitter, like on Facebook, and follow on Tumblr.
