Less than an hour into launching its crowdfunding campaign for a new random and ridiculous card game on Kickstarter called Muffin Time, Big Potato succeeded in raising £10,000—and not even 24 hours after that, the new party game had raised a total of £140,000 in support.
Muffin Time is the new asdfmovie-themed card game that Big Potato is creating in partnership with Turbo Punch and it promises to be just as wild as the animated video series starring everything from skateboarding cows to suicidal muffins. Most people know the muffin character best, as the Muffin Song became a viral sensation last year.
With Muffin Time, players collect cards, trigger traps and kill off muffins through gameplay that's just as unpredictable as the asdfmovie series originally created by Thomas "TomSka" Ridgewell.
