The prequel to Barkley Gaiden²: The Son Of Dark Draker: Barkley Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden, Gaiden Episode 1

A couple years back the news came out that the Barkley 2 project had collapsed, and one of the devs mentioned in the Something Awful forum thread that there was a demo version that they'd try to make functional.

I decided to release a fake demo before they put it out, so I put this together in a week.  Basically, it's a short shitpost cobbled together out of graphics and music from the kickstarter, stories shared by the devs about what was in the game, what went wrong mid-development (such as all the Dark Drakers) as well as screenshots from Frankie's twitch streams working on the game ( https://www.twitch.tv/frankiepixelshow ), all built on Moghunter's chrono engine rpgmaker plugin.

Surprisingly, this actually fooled some people, including a Russian warez site which presented it as the real Barkley 2.

Go in expecting one or two joke(s), and a playtime of like 15 minutes or something, and remember, this game is canon.
