TL;DR version – Hentacle has been taken down from OBS sites after what appears to be a malicious report. I plan to give it away, soliciting donations, some of which will go to the Darkzel scholarship fund.
Also, we need a new, alternative sales platform.

Kagai! is set after a supernatural apocalypse has swept the world. The players are part of the surviving members of humanity who are trying to fight back but, while all the men and boys are sent off the war the young women are left hiding in the Shimizu Arcology with the politicians, the war-wounded and others with an excuse not to fight.
They’re not content not to fight though, and may young women form vigilante gangs to hunt the monsters in their midst.
Kagai! uses an innovative dicepool system that encourages real group tactics and cooperation to take down powerful enemies and encourages descriptive gore and intra-party drama.
Inspired by Japanese schlock-horror such as Tokyo Gore Police and Lust of the Dead, Kagai! should provide a great deal of fun for those who enjoy gross-out stupidity and high octane violence.
You can now purchase Cthentacle Deluxe – a hardcopy of the game and EVERY supplement for it at Gamecrafter.
I’m afraid the shipping is prohibitively expensive for non US people, so I wouldn’t recommend you buying from there unless you can club together and buy lots of copies or want to work something out with me.
I almost had a deal worked out with another group for getting it printed in Europe, but I’m afraid that’s fallen through for now.
If anyone has any leads on European-based POD board game companies, please let me know.

So, I’m sure you’ve heard by now that a bunch of concern trolls have managed to get a previously approved and rather innocent ‘Tentacle Rape’ card game Kickstarter pulled.
This is censorious bullshit and I intend to talk a lot more on this subject. There’s a critical mass of puritan bullshit and self-hating flagellation going on and I’ve had enough of it.
Still, I find the best way to say ‘Fuck you’ to censorship is to vote positively, rather than negatively, with your wallet.
Soda Pop have worked out another way to fund their product drive on their own site and as for myself, I’ve doubled what I had pledged before.
I suggest you do the same.
For my part, solidarity Soda Pop, you’re going through an (oddly) more vociferous version of the beasting I got over Hentacle and Cthentacle.
If you want to show that there are more open-minded, libertine, anti-censorship people out there who can tell the difference between reality and fantasy, you can pledge HERE
In fact, you know what? I’m going to pledge more money to them based on Hentacle and Cthentacle sales for the rest of the month too. Think of it as monetarily flipping the bird with BOTH hands.
So… THIS popped up on my stream today.
I was, shall we say, nonplussed.
I was also nonplussed, but not surprised, to see the RAAAAAGE going on HERE and HERE about it.
From what I can see this game is really, tame as anything. There’s no graphic depictions here, it’s pretty much suggestive and there’s certainly no ‘Carrots’ cards amongst this lot, and yet RAGE.
Personally? Well, I suppose I’m a little upset that someone else is taking my idea commercial. Over it’s lifespan the rights to Hentacle have been negotiated with three separate companies, all of whom chickened out at one hurdle or another. Now, not only have Soda Pop made tens of thousands of dollars from a crowdsourcing, but they’re going to make a shitpile more money from a much tamer execution of a game idea that’s so damn close to mine it’s painful.
Do I begrudge ’em? No. Not really. I’m just annoyed at seeing another success story go past with ideas stemming from or similar to mine. It’s happened before (Munchkin) and I’m sure it’ll happen again. I’m just one unlucky motherfucker apparently.
I’ve backed ’em and best of luck to ’em.
They’re still idea-stealing bastards though.
Give a washed up old game designer a break and BUY Hentacle or Cthentacle while you’re at it, eh?
Only the clean stuff, obviously… here’s some inks of the characters, clicking should show you the bigger version:
