Entomology! Bill Bourroughs, here I come!
Accuser! We've got Kafka in the house!
Wine... something about wine... something about altered states of consciousness...
No character sheet? I've got Under the Bed going already!
Creator-designed cards? Ha ha! I even have advice on how to print them!

- Fixed characters... OK... well, I always find that kinda stifling. Gotta think about that.
- Resolution must use colors... feels gimmicky, particularly as I'm a graphic designer and consider excessive color use to be a plague of our time. Not to mention that 10% of men are color blind.
- Hand gestures have mechanical effects... RoShamBo, maybe? I dunno.
- Cards, hand gestures, and dice? Why don't we throw in a board, some pawns, some running shoes, paddles, and a face guard? Jimminy cricket, that's a lot of mechanics.
