Back when I lived in Kohler, WI, my buddy Joe Cline and I played hours upon hours of RPGs on our C=64/C=128. Â One of the favorite games we played was Wasteland. This caused us 32 points of geekery and exploded our minds like a blood sausage.
Many of the original Wasteland guys worked on the Fallout series, the “spiritual successor” to Wasteland.  However, its always been a dream of fans and the designers to do a direct sequel. Thanks to the stuff that’s popped up on the modern internet, specifically Kickstarter, they are raising funds to do just that.
For just $15 in backing, based on current funding, you’ll get a copy of the game on Linux, Mac, and/or Windows. Â The more they raise, the better they can make the game. Â I’m excited enough about the game that I’m writing a blog post. Â DO IT!
I remember seeing pre-release promos for Wasteland… Egghead Software held some kind of public expo show at the then-O’Hare Expo Center. I seem to remember mirrored wraparound mylar sunglasses with the name printed on the side.
