Thanks, this is a good precaution to take. My goal isn't to popularize rationality per-se (I can't speak for Eliezer, I don't know what his goal is with MoR), it's more to show various topics/principles/ideas introduced here in different light, not necessarily to defends them or to explain them. I think people playing a fantasy game are a lot more receptive to crazy/unusual ideas, so it will be easy to sneak those ideas past their radar. If I don't succeed at it with the first game, at least I'll still have a pretty good and fun game. Thanks for the word of caution.

By the way, as examples of very fast game development, you might want to look at Increpare, Klik of the Month, and Speed-IF.
