An extremely well-liked card game is now being adapted into a series on Netflix; however, what came before?
An animated series that will be known to more than one viewer is being released by Netflix today. This is not because the series is based on a comic book about success or a franchise that has been established in the past; rather, it is based on a game of tabletop, but not on any other game. In its guise as a series, ‘Exploding Kittens’ (which carries the Spanish title of ‘Gatitos explosivos’) is a card game that has been at the top of the list of the most popular games since it was released several years ago. Furthermore, Asmodee, the distributor of the game in Spain, asserts that it was the most sought-after game in our country in the year 2023.
First, let’s talk about the comic. From the beginning, it was a comic book, much like many other projects that had such a clearly defined visual element. More specifically, with the amusing webcomic titled “The Oatmeal,” which was established by Matthe Inman in the year 2009. In it, the author’s highly distinctive sense of humor, which was somewhere between furious, grim, and ridiculous, sparkled with an originality that earned him nothing less than the Eisner Award for Best Digital Comic / Webcomic in 2014. His extremely unique visual style has been a defining characteristic of Inman ever since, and the Netflix series shows a great deal of appreciation for his approach.
Achieving success on the internet. ‘How to tell if your cat is plotting to kill you’ was the headline of The Oatmeal’s first viral comic, which was eventually turned into a compilation book. This is a noteworthy fact. On the other hand, Machiavellian cats were not the only subject he dealt with; his approach, in which he frequently added infographics and semi-essayistic cartoons, resulted in an enormous amount of success. The website saw 300,000 visitors in its first month of operation, and by the time it had been up for ten months, it had already amassed 4.5 million visitors. It was almost twenty million page views per month in 2010, and at that time, the website was making half a million dollars annually; but, before that, Inman had already set his sights on another industry.
A game played with cards. In the year 2015, The Oatmeal launched a card game that was not only easy to play but also extremely addictive. Inman, Elan Lee, and Shane Small were the designers, and Kickstarter was the source of funding for the project. In a span of eight minutes, they achieved their goal of obtaining $10,000. They had already smashed the record for the biggest number of supporters in the history of Kickstarter within seven days, and by the time the campaign was over, they had twice the amount of backers they had received. An amount greater than eight million dollars had been raised by them.
Instructions on how to play. Cards are thrown onto the table by the players. Anyone who sketches a kitten that explodes will be killed. There is a tiny strategic element in the form of cards that affect the action and that may be used to attack the opponent, protect against rivals, or deactivate the explosive kittens (or return them to the neighbor). It is that easy. It is a kind of hairy Russian roulette, and of course, there is a slight strategic component. A really easy game to pick up and play, but one that will keep you entertained for hours on end.
To add to the games. Several other games have been released by The Oatmeal. Although none of them have achieved the level of success that ‘Exploding Kittens’ has, a large number of readers are working to ensure that each and every one of them becomes a best-seller. The game “Throw Throw Burrito,” in which you have to fling a cute foam tortilla at your opponents, is our favorite example of this type of sequel. The majority of their games, such as “Bears vs. Babies,” “You’ve Got Crabs,” and “A Little Wordy,” are able to make it very evident that Inman is the developer behind them. This is made possible by the distinctive graphics that they bring to the table.
Here comes Netflix. Inman made the announcement in 2019 that he would be departing The Oatmeal for an undetermined amount of time in order to pursue other projects. A agreement with Illumination, the studio that was responsible for the creation of Gru and the Super Mario animated feature, was one of the things that was being discussed at the time, but it did not end up happening. In the year 2022, Netflix made the announcement that it will be releasing a series that was based on the game ‘Exploding Kittens’. This announcement was followed by a mobile game that replicated the rules of its predecessor using cards. Mike Judge (‘Beavis and Butthead’, ‘King of the Hill’) and Greg Daniels (‘The Office’) were two fantastic producers who would be working with Inman. Not only would Inman be on board with the creative side of things, but he would also have them.
Whereas, on the other hand, the plot? ‘Exploding Kittens’, on the other hand, was forced to contend with a challenge: the card game lacked a storyline. The spirit and aesthetics of the original had to be recreated, but it had to be built on it so that it could tell its own story. The outcome is exactly what one would anticipate: God becomes reincarnated as a domestic cat and is dispatched to Earth in order to reestablish a connection with human beings. It is then that this Godcat meets his neighbor, another cat who turns out to be the Antichrist. This Godcat settles in with a troubled family and begins his new life there. An example of a typical cosmic war between cats is presented below.
Introducing brand new gift games. In order to promote the series, The Oatmeal has released a special version of the game in partnership with Netflix. This edition is called “Good vs. Evil,” and it features a setting that is slightly more apocalyptic than the previous editions, which were already full with Holocausts. A shrewd marketing move on the part of Netflix that momentarily brings the thematic circle of an author who still has a lot to surprise us with to a close.
