    So who's going to gift Rorus Bad Rats?

    I'd rather watch Rorus raise ponies and find what the Secret of the Magic Crystals actually is.

    What about Space Giraffe?

    I'll donate $10.

    This community is so great that it can turn something scraped from the pits of hell and turn it into something wondrous.

    I'd also enjoy watching Rorus play an extremely difficult game as opposed to bad.

    Hmm. Has this been mentioned? New Steam Beta thing, called Steam Market. Buy and sell items to other community members for Steam Wallet cash. Only for TF2 right now it appears. http://steamcommunity.com/market/

    I got a confirmation of Gear Girl's donation. I guess we need to A) figure out how long we are going to take donations and B) who should actually get the confirmations of said donations whence the goal is actually hit or how ever we want to work it.

    It seems like Arkham City is discounted more often than Asylum. Should I just skip Asylum and play City?

    Well that was the plan yes and as far as I know still is. I guess Gear just really wanted to donate in excitement.

    It may be a minority opinion around these parts, but I liked asylum much more. Arkham City just had way too many random mooks to beat up between cool bits.

    Well, there's already the thread for the LP itself.

    @TychoCelchuuu could change the thread title to focus on our carrot instead of RR's stick. Might attract some attention.

    Asylum is damn great. You'll play it and love it.

    Then you'll play City, and really understand why it's the awesomest.

    I would keep donations open up until the deadline for Anoffday's LP (i.e. the 20th). The more time available for a charity drive the better, plus because Rorus is taking up the enforcement end we don't need to worry about people not holding up their end of the bargain. Not that I would ever worry about the second part because our people are the classiest.

    Asylum is a Metroidvania. City is an Assassin's Creed.

    So, just finished level 10 of Bad Rats.

    Does it get harder, or is Easy just actually easier and I'm not getting the full experience? Because as it is, I've finished almost every level in under a minute.

    I prefered Asylum too, City is still amazing but I think the bigger map ruined it a bit

    based on aerynkelly's comments I gather it starts to get frustrating around lvl 30.

    It varies. Some continue to be easy while others are hatefully difficult

    I think the difficulty stems from the fact that the "physics" in this game is basically a shitty RNG.

    Reading all these posts about people wanting to play Bad Rats remind me of a time many years ago when someone made a thread about wanting to play the Philips CD-I Zelda games, and every post that wasn't the original poster was like: "no! It's a waste of money and you'll hate yourself!"

    I'd go more in the direction of a less focused main story which was a result of the more open worldness of the game itself which necessitated the larger map. Still a fantastic game though.

    Normally I would just say you should save yourself the anguish and watch a LP, but I can't find any that are done.

    Wasn't there an AVGN episode on them? I think that's where I saw them, which was enough for me.
