THIS DEFINITELY ISN'T KANSAS.

An Animated Graphic Adventure™

One minute you're just a guy eating nacho-flavored popcorn. The next you're sucked through a TV into a fantastic alien world filled with exotic landscapes and lifeforms.

Welcome to the surprisingly new destiny of P. J. Barrett.
Follow P.J. through a marvelous universe of acid pools and frags, quirls and fluboxes, floaters and wraiths. There's a deep mystery here that only he — with your help — can solve.
Put away the reality you've known. You won't be needing it on this trip.
Written and designed by Michael Berlyn, Creator of Infidel and Suspended, Author of "The Eternal Enemy.
