About Running with Scissors
Founded in Tucson, AZ in 1996 and now operating from all across the world, Running With Scissors is an independent video game studio that develops and publishes outrageous games just for the hell of it. Our goal is to make action-packed games which are fun, funny and possibly even politically correct. Our games feature wonderfully excessive amounts of violence, however we are not in favor of real life violence and believe it’s a hell of a lot better to act out your frustrations in video games rather than against your fellow man.
RWS HQ is at 2713 N Campbell #3, Tucson, AZ 85719
关于用剪刀跑步
《剪刀快跑》于1996年在亚利桑那州图森市成立，目前在世界各地运营，是一家独立的视频游戏工作室，专门开发和发布离谱的游戏。我们的目标是制作有趣、有趣甚至可能在政治上正确的动作游戏。我们的游戏以惊人的过度暴力为特点，但我们不赞成现实生活中的暴力，并认为在电子游戏中表现出你的沮丧情绪比对抗你的同伴要好得多。

历史
Back in the day, Vince Desi, the future head of Running With Scissors, worked as a headhunter for programmers and placed many talented individuals at the original Atari. When Atari went bust the first time, Vince took some of these talented programmers and co-created Riedel Software Productions, a work-for-hire game development studio. Although successful, many years of making tame children’s games and other games based on other company’s intellectual property became boring and Vince and some of his colleagues became restless. They wanted to stop riding the coattails of other franchises and leave their own mark permanently on the gaming industry. In 1996 the unforgettable and insurmountable Running With Scissors was formed.
Running With Scissors was self funded and determined to be independent and free of pseudo-commercial creative development and hypocritical publishers. It set out to make a game that would live in infamy.
1997
POSTAL was released to the unsuspecting public. The hate mail was instant and almost more vicious than the game itself. RWS knew it was on the right track when Senator Joe Lieberman mentioned the game during a speech on the house floor of the US Senate. He claimed:
“The three worst things in American society are Marilyn Manson, Calvin Klein Underwear ads and the video game POSTAL.”
POSTAL was banned in 14 countries and blacklisted in America. This only motivated RWS to be more relentless as it pursued its dream to be independent.
The original POSTAL publishers parent company, Panasonic Interactive, got cold feet when Howard Stern mistakenly mentioned them by name during an on-air advertisement about the game. Panasonics label, Ripcord Games was summarily spun off into an independent publisher to handle POSTAL.
The US Postal Service filed a copyright suit over use of the name “POSTAL”. The suit would last for 6 years, until RWS won the case (with prejudice) in 2003.
2001
Work began on POSTAL 2. The game was designed as a “sociological experiment” that leaves violence entirely up to the player’s discretion as none of the missions require killing. The #1 child star in television history, Gary Coleman, is signed to play himself.
2003
POSTAL 2 is released by UK-based publisher WhipTail Interactive. The RWS team immediately starts development on a multiplayer add-on.
POSTAL 2 receives the first ever “0” rating from Computer Gaming World magazine. RWS immediately puts out a press release, wearing their “perfect score” like a badge of honor. It is later displayed on the front cover of the ‘POSTAL Fudge Pack’ compilation.
2004
An updated version of POSTAL 2 called “Share The Pain” is released that includes new levels, code updates, faster loading times and the multiplayer patch.
POSTAL 2 publisher WhipTail Interactive imploded.
RWS began work on an expansion for POSTAL 2, titled: “Apocalypse Weekend”, and incorporates a satirical play on the WhipTail situation into the storyline, as well as the nuclear destruction of Paradise, Arizona. Despite the fact that the add-on is completed in six months, various issues delay its release until 2006.
2005
A horrible add-on for POSTAL 2 titled “Штопор жжот“, is created by Russian publisher Akella, and released in Russia only. An English translation is not available.
2006
Apocalypse Weekend is finally released. RWS makes a deal with Akella to develop Postal III. The game takes a third-person point of view and is set in the fictional town of Catharsis, Arizona. The deal is announced prematurely to coincide with announcement of the POSTAL feature film, by German mad man Uwe Boll.
All current POSTAL games re-released as a collection called “The Fudge Pack”.
“Music To Go POSTAL By” music CD is released.
2007
