Boring Man - Online Tactical Stickman Combat was released on 20 Feb, 2015.
Boring Man - OTSC contains depictions of violence and "pixel blood". The characters in Boring Man can die in a variety of gruesome ways, but the pixel art keeps it silly. Some features imply the inappropriate usage of drugs and alcohol, with little consequence. Boring Man - OTSC does not encourage the overuse of substances and entirely admits this is a controversial PR stunt.
