===Second Edition titles=== As the game grew in popularity, the supplements were re-printed in expanded form with more pages and multi-color printing. New supplements covering new genres and specific objects of parody were also added. These expansions and later supplements were mainly written by Norman F. Morin Jr., Brian Rayburn, Jon Hancock and Niels Erickson rather than Jeff & 'Manda Dee. The tone of these second edition titles was noticeably one of more overt humor and silliness, peppering the text with [[pun]]s (and even calling on fans to mail in suggested puns of their own for future supplements). *All of the First Edition titles described above were reprinted in expanded full-color form. *''Rocket Rangers'': the companion to ''Space Cadets'', this volume offered systems for spaceship design and combat and several sample ships. Unlike other 2nd edition titles, ''Rocket Rangers'' was mainly written by Jeff & 'Manda Dee. *''Twerps Twek'': a direct parody of [[Star Trek]], requiring ''Space Cadets'' and ''Rocket Rangers'' to use. *''Robo-Punks'': rules for running [[Cyberpunk]] adventures, including brief systems for cybernetic implants and net-running. *''Superdudes'': a list of super-powers for running [[superhero]] adventures. *''Metaphysical Ninja Maniac Chainsaw Vitamin Junkies'': guidelines for running [[post-apocalyptic]] scenarios in the spirit of films like ''[[Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior|The Road Warrior]]'' (with a heavy addition of gonzo wackiness), including rules for vehicle damage and mutations. *''Twisted Tales of Terror'': the horror supplement, with guidelines for creating monsters or playing monsters as [[player-character]]s. *''M.E.C.H.I.-Tech'': a system for the design and battles between giant robots, with many direct riffs on the popular [[Battletech]] games. *''The T.W.E.R.P.S. Files'': a direct parody of ''[[The X Files]]''. *''How to Do Everything Better'': a general rules expansion, offering more character classes, more superpowers and more equipment. Also included were rules for allowing ''TWERPS'' characters to gain dimension-travelling powers.
