Okay, so as some of you may remember, I have, since last year, been producing art (on a co-promotional basis) for the audiodrama Our Fair City.

"Our Fair City is a darkly funny, highly whimsical look at corporate consumerism all grown up. The not so distant future: the skies are stormy, and the landscape is a vast frozen tundra. Lightning rigs high above the city gather energy from thunderstorms, mad scientists walk the earth, and adorably monstrous Molepeople dig tunnels deep underground to expand the city's habitable space. It's as fun as can be, and explores a unique and fascinating medium of storytelling."

It's one of the best free audiodramas out there and combines the best aspects of dystopian fiction, dark humour and a noirish vibe whilst echoing the golden days of radio.
OFC has also expanded into print with independent comics and a regular webcomic appearing on their site too.

So... its time for another giveaway to mark a piece of my work being published with them.

Last time I had more than twice the amount of cash spare, but also a good list of dystopic and noir based games to run from. with many of those having been bundled to death / not on offer right now, the list is a little less genre-relevant, but I believe we have some good uns in the mix!

STEAM:

Chainsaw Warrior
Space Hulk (2013)

Bigs don't read my mind!

I had no idea either of those games were released! I spent a lot of my youth in the local gaming store in Sydney "Tin Soldier" spending everything I could on miniatures and paints, especially for Space Marine/Epic Scale and Warhammer 40k and Fantasy.

I'm not sure if I'm in as I seriously have a ton to play, have been lucky and received generosity from people here and have entered a few giveaways of late.

Sachys - your art is awesome. I remember when you linked me your blog when I was doing a giveaway and seeking a new desktop background. The bleakness in your landscapes epitomises how I am feeling this winter without fire, so thank you for reminding me :)

I wasn't aware of Our Fair City and am going to take a listen in a moment. It might be the perfect lullaby for my current mood to drift of to sleep to :)

You may as well enter - Chainsaw Warrior is played against an hour long timer (just like the tabletop game - which I actually have), so regardless of backlog, you only need an hour to play!

Edit: and cheers!

I applaud you good sir :)
Me, I can't draw to save my life. Would be all stick figures, and even those would be considered bad.

This confused zombie, LOL, is one of my favorites you did.

I'm in for Sim city 2000
Congrats, that's awesome! Not in for the giveaway, but +1.
Not in but thank you anyway!
Grats on the showing - the audiodrama sounds pretty nifty, though I don't have time to listen to the whole 25 minutes right now. I tasted the first five or so. Interesting!

I'll be in for Chainsaw Warrior, and thanks!
Thanks, I'm in for Space Hulk :)

The first three series are made up of more episodes, but only run at 10 minutes each - I found them to work quite well on headphones for a trip to the shops... except the maniacal laughing... that didnt work out so well!
Congrats! I'm not in, but thanks for the giveaway! :D

As tempted as I am, when I see Bigs entering above me(shut up innuendo in my head!) and I still haven't played Skulls of the Shogan(something that I really want to lol) from his giveaway almost a year ago, I'm going to respectfully decline.

I started to listen to the audio play, and was swiftly reminded by how much I struggle with audio learning without visual or tactile aids. It reminds me of my attempt to do university online. One of my favourite topics and only one unit and I couldn't complete due to the lecture delivery method being via audio(and a US lecturer at that, which is even more challenging for me).

I really liked the start of it and noticed I kept losing concentration and getting distracted, and alas I won't take dexamphetamines anymore to overcome that :P I'll try taking a listen on my way to sleep if I can do so without disturbing Munki :)

PS - thanks to you I finally registered on DeviantArt to comment on my new desktop background :)
