Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter!

UPDATE to the UPDATE: The problem has been solved, all rewards are now available. I've extended the campaign an extra day, to April 21. Thanks for bearing with me!

UPDATE: There has been some strange glitch in the Kickstarter launch, so Scott is cancelling the campaign temporarily and will re-start as soon the cause of the problem can be determined and corrected.

Scott is gearing-up for his third Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter campaign!

(Not-Safe.Space is Scott's sexy spin-off of QUANTUM VIBE.)

For those of you who haven't signed up for one of the NSFW Patreon tiers, this will be the best way to get in on the action for a very reasonable price.

Go to THIS link. The campaign starts March 16 and runs through April 20.

The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
Above shot. Emily, Katz, and Jeff are still hanging out in the shop, talking.
Emily: Has he been...'fixed?'
Katz: Sort of. There's a wrinkle in his AI program.
Panel 2
Close-up of Katz.
Katz: If I say the word, d-e-f-e-n-d, he'll go after whomever is threatening me.
Katz: I have a safety word, which means 'halt!' in Yiddish.
Panel 3
Emily still looks a bit nervous from a perspective slighty behind and below Jeff.
Emily: Seems like a good system
Katz (OP): Well, in general, yes. Funny story. Jeff and I were in a rough mining town, and a guy with a knife jumps out and demands my money.
Panel 4
Small silhouette of the three with lots of room for dialogue.
Katz: I tell Jeff 'd-e-f-e-n-d!' and he starts for the guy. Suddenly, the guy yells 'halt!' in Yiddish. Jeff stops and looks back and forth between us, trying to deal with the cognitive dissonance. He finally makes up his mind and starts after the robber again. The guy yells, 'Oy Vey!' and takes off like a rocket. I stop Jeff and we proceed on our way. So my system works pretty well, unless I'm attacked by another gonif who's also a Yiddish-speaking Jew, but what are the odds?
