The Story
Star Dracula is a 90s cartoon style point and click adventure set in the Australian Wheat-belt and the furthest reaches of the solar system. While watching late night TV, long time friends Wilfred and Murray are visited by an alien vandal bent on wrecking their TV antenna. With no home insurance to repair the damage and nothing to watch on TV, the boys head off to Pluto to acquire the alien's insurance details.

Haha sounds fun and LOVE the art style! All the best with development.
PS - where can I order my powered picnic table?!?!??!
Haha nice, this looks awesome. I live in the Australian wheatbelt. :cheesy:
Great art style, but is it too late to remove the dithering? It kind of ruins the art, and really these days there's no reason to use it.

Aww, I love dithering. It makes me all nostalgic. :-D
And not enough games nowadays use it.
I'm gonna nip this in the bud before it gets out of hand...
ToothpasteBruva - if you want to discuss the graphical style please post in the critics lounge!
Unique looking art style and Alien insurance? I'm in, looks good man!
Fun! Cool art and story :-D Good luck completing this 8-)
This looks like great fun. All the best.
Cheers all,
I'm on the fence with the dithering. I'll do a comparison in the critics lounge.
Friends heading out to confront aliens because of no TV reception?
I would say we've been there doane that if not for the amazing effort of love that has obviously been poured into this game.
I NEED to ride that picnic table at least once in my life!
New Yuppie character. My brother keeps calling him the Willy Nose Man. Pretty rude if you ask me.
