Here's a cute, bizarre and unique looking low-res adventure game that I just backed.

That art is giving me some DOS vibes, looks amazing.

Wow.  I could actually FEEL that video diddle my brain.  I'll be backing this weekend, for sure.

This looks really cool!

It's a very intriguing game.  The video was fantastic.  I really hope it gets funded.

Looks like it could be AGS! Anyone know what engine it uses?

What I can glean from a quick skim over the website is that they have their own engine, but used RPG maker at some point previously.

The website's pretty cool, actually, and also they keep talking about the Ghost in a Bottle company as being some huge global conglomerate.  I'm not sure if they're planning some weird alternate reality stuff, or just having a bit of fun with an unfinished website template.

As for the game.  It looks great, but I'm going to refrain from backing due to skintness.

Tentacle cutting is WRONG!

But other than that, this looks really cool.

It's curious and pleasantly weird.

  Their company page is hilarious.  It took me a second to realize that its a parody of cheesy corporate web-sites, their stock photos, and jargon.  I'm debating backing it.

  Edited - Backed the game, went for "Useless NPC" donation level.

I wish I had the money to back this.  It's very cool.

I agree, the website is hilarious.  I spent a good deal of time yesterday reading through the various pages.  Definitely worth it.

The colors are gouging out my eyes.  I love the style and detail, though.
