Synopsis
Millionaire Brandon Brewster (voiced by Peter Cullen) uses a machine to reduce himself to only a few inches in height and give himself superpowers, including super-strength and flight; in this form, he's the costumed crime fighter Mighty Man. His partner is Yukk (voiced by Frank Welker), the "world's ugliest dog"; this anthropomorphic dog conceals his face by wearing a miniature doghouse on his head.

gollark: Tape drive DFPWM en/decoding already occurs out of game, so that doesn't apply.
gollark: It would have been smarter to just use Opus for sound encoding, but DFPWM is... simpler, I guess?
gollark: Mostly no, as there are better codecs for "real" use.
gollark: I think <@638230362711130132> has one.
gollark: You basically just listen for transactions, dispense items based on metadata, and do refunds.
