Hey ladies and gents!

I was wondering if anyone had any leads on any point and click adventure projects that might be gearing up for a Kickstarter run in the near future? Anything worthy to keep an eye out for?

Well, I’ll be a tease… I’ve been chatting with an adventure game dev who’s considering doing a Kickstarter this fall. If it happens I think it’s going to be of interest to a lot of people in this community (esp. fans of traditional old-school adventures). Sorry I can’t say more than that at the moment, but let the speculation begin.

Aha! This is what I was hoping to hear! Now you’ve got my hopes up! Fortunately fall is right around the corner…

Currently, there are KS campaigns going on from Steve Ince and Bill Tiller (Brawe2) & Tiller with friends (Duke Grabowski), but they both seem to struggle at this moment.
I’m a backer on both, but I’m not confident that their funding goals will be reached.

As for this anonymous AG dev, I would back anything from Jordan Mechner or Dave Gilbert.

I have backed both of those projects as well. I am really hoping they make it.

As for Mechner and Gilbert, I would support either one in a heartbeat!

We’re preparing something for October 1st. I can tell you that it will be mind-blowing news for fans of horror games, and we have two teasers already available:

Jaws will drop. 100% guaranteed

Hey awesome! I am intrigued. Thanks for letting us know about this. I will be counting the days until October 1st.

Fov,

Was this announced horror game being unveiled on October 1st, the secret project you were referring to potentially coming this fall?

I saw an announcement that Dave Grossman is leaving Telltale. I’m very curious as to what he’ll be doing next. Maybe a kickstarter?

I kind of want to wait for some of my horses to come in before I back any more adventure Kickstarters. The results of the projects I’ve backed have been mixed; some great, some not, some seem like they may never really materialize. Most of games that were really in my top tier have already had their Kickstarters and now I just want to sit back and see how they turn out.

Lots of teasing going on in this thread!!!

There’s also a project by some ex-Pendulo / ex-Revolution people called Crazy Bloody Robots

but not sure what the status on that is or when that will launch.

Interesting project never heard of it, artstyle reminds on DotT

Anyone knows if Syberia 3 is going to be a kickstarter?

Another lovely, filthy kitchen. I wonder what that thing in the pot might be.
