Paradigm is an in-development point-and-click adventure from Jacob Janerka, an independent game developer from Australia. To call it "surreal" would not encompass the sheer absurdity on display here. (Read More)

Man, this is has been a crazy ride. So many things have happened this month and it still doesn't feel quite real. At the end of the Kickstarter I will need someone to slap me and tell me what year it is. Then share a post beer or apple juicebox,... (Read More)

Is it possible to say thank you too much? Is it possible to be in love with 1186 backers simultaneously  without it being immoral? The answer is no, I would have also accepted as long as everyone gets equal amounts of breakfast in beds. I make a... (Read More)

Hey guys, I made an error in the last update when uploading Jonas' section, I apologise, I caught up on some sweet sleep (in a bed this time haha) so it shouldn't happen again :D. Below is the fixed segment which you can see the difference between... (Read More)

Hey dudes and dudettes of Paradigm, Jonas is taking the reigns today but I wanted to quickly add a new update that a lot of people have been asking for which is a new stretch goal in-between the 23k and the 35k. The stretch goal spawned as a stupid... (Read More)

Hey Dudes and Dudettes, What have you guys been doing? I turn away for one second and suddenly we're blasting past the third stretch goal. And here I'm still dancing to Toto from two updates ago. In all seriousness wow! We are inching closer and... (Read More)

Hey Paradigm dudes/dudettes,  Paradigm continues to push a long with Rocky like prowess (Rocky 4 to be more specific). We've just hit 22k and still going with 12 days to go. If I could, I would send you all love letters, it'll be like the notebook,... (Read More)

Hey Paradigm dudes/dudettes,  We just just cracked the second stretch goal (art upgrade) and the campaign has only just went past halfway. You guys, I'm running out of creative ways to say thank you, soon I will have to resort to some sort of... (Read More)

Hey Paradigm dudes and dudettes,  I've been working my part time job these past two days (Iphone 6 Launch, oh the humanity) and I apologise if I haven't replied to some of you yet, I'll be sending out replies shortly <3 but first!   These past... (Read More)

Hey Paradigm dudes and dudettes,  It's been a crazy time since the last update! Felix Kjellberg (PewDiePie) played Paradigm which I can't thank him enough for <3 It blew my mind! Over 2 million people have seen Paradigm and I can't be happier.... (Read More)

Hey Paradigm bros,  We've gone past the 50% mark and there's still 21 days left to go. My mind is continually being blown, I wake up everyday super motivated because of you guys.  So for today's update, I thought I would show you some snippets of... (Read More)

Point-and-click adventures have always been a natural fit for surreal stories and offbeat comedy, whereas post-apocalyptic, Borat-influenced Eastern Europe has been a mostly unappreciated setting begging to be explored and, well, here's Paradigm. It's a thing that already exists (up to a point) and also quite handily a surreal point-and-click adventure set in a post-apocalyptic, post-pseudosocialist Eastern Europe starring an ugly mutant hero and an evil sloth villain. Supporting it on Kickstarter will most probably ensure its continued and proper existence. (Read More)

Hello Paradigm fans! It's been an amazing, crazy few days. Paradigm is now 46% funded! We smashed the early bird reward and all of this in 5 days, I really can't thank you guys enough. You know what I said before about not having enough arms to high... (Read More)

We’ve discussed Paradigm a few times here on Cliqist, but in case you’ve missed it… Paradigm is a post apocalyptic adventure game with a 70’s / 80’s Eastern Bloc vibe. The main character, Paradigm, is just a simple mutant trying to make his way in an absurd world full of comedy, disgusting characters, and an evil sloth. Check out our hands on preview for more info, and then give our interview with Paradigm’s developer, Jacob Janerka, a read! (Read More)

Hey you beautiful Paradigm fans,  We are now at 209 backers and $4779 which is unbelievable, I can't thank you guys enough, I wan't to personally high five you all at the same time, alas I'am a mere non-mutant mortal with two hands. Anyway here is... (Read More)

Every week we take a brief look at all of the Kickstarter campaigns that launched in the previous week. This isn’t to say that all of these projects are worth your hard earned cash, but with any luck having all of them in one place will make it easier to educate yourself on the projects you’d like to back, and which ones to run from. (Read More)

Adventure games have proved time and time again that they are far from dead. With that said, outside of a few standouts in the past few years, it doesn’t feel like the genre has necessarily been able to match some comedic titles as Day of the Tentacle, Sam and Max, and the like. I say all this because Paradigm seems like just the kind of game that would have existed at that point. (Read More)

First day is over and I'm amazed how much support there has been already, over $2000 already. I haven't been able to take the smile off my face for the past 24 hours. Thank you all for the kind words and the support.I've also been getting some love... (Read More)

I’ve been sitting here trying to figure out how to start telling you about Paradigm; a bizarre looking adventure game from Jacob Janerka. At first I was going to say that I’ve never done mass amounts of coke, but if I had, and decided to design a game while high on it, that the game would be Paradigm. (Read More)
