This is a heart-felt request to all aspiring comedians, but also any indie developers who are also aspiring comedians:
If you ever have the urge to describe yourself as the next Monty Python, SLAM YOUR HEAD IN A DOOR UNTIL YOU COMPLETELY FORGET THEIR EXISTENCE.
You'll just be setting everybody up for disappointment, and joining the ranks of the developers of Limbo of the Lost and Stalin vs Martians. Monty Python was good, make no mistake, but their humor is mostly funny for reasons completely opposite the original now. I somewhat suspect that they were in the right place at the right time, and no amount of talent or writing or posturing will get you there. You can be funny in your own right, but it's a bad idea to aspire to directly recreate their success.
