deadwood - RUT"S HOWSE

Our old friend tucan, creator of P0P, is celebrating the creation of his and yllek's new group, Large Orange Lump.  To show for it, our misunderstood genius is hard at work on two impressive new works.
      First up is tucan's multi-chapter saga, Root the Sensitive Poet Aardvark, which plays like a cross between Bone and a Brian Jaques novel, with a touch of the old tucan charm.  Root is a moody and atmospheric adventure, laced with dark, slick graphics and excellent prose.

Next on the list is Opium for the Masses, a trippy and well-written story.  This strange tale takes the player deep into the emotionally torrid psyche of a druggie.   As the story progresses, we reach through the symbolism to explore the character's thoughts.  A deeply disturbed, brooding piece of fiction.
      In addition to these masterpieces, tucan is working on a secret project that should be released shortly.  Obviously, tucan will soon cement his place as the expressionist master of ZZT.
