Bob Kelly’s Heresy Research Labs is a game design company for players that want to experience off the beaten path. The goal here is to create games that stretch your brain in ways they haven’t been stretched before - without breaking them, of course. I’m not swearing to a “all-out assault” - just something we’re not familiar with. The themes you can expect here are:

If you don’t know what those mean, start with Wikipedia - it’s the bomb!

What we’re working on now: “That Cult Game” - I hope to have a rough browser-based prototype of creating and managing a cult. Cult Tycoon for the lack of better terminology. If you’d like to chat about it, send me a line via the Contact Page.

For those seeking to know more of where my influences are, here’s a few people that have inspired me over the years.

Warren Ellis - Especially the Avatar Comic stuff
Grant Morrison - Most everything from Grant
Sam Harris - Atheist author
Richard Dawkins - Scientist and voice of the future
Adult Swim - Most everything’s got the right mix
Tim Schafer -Grim Fandango, Psychonauts, you name it

As I find more, more will be post.
