It’s odd they released that without even alerting the backers of their previous game. The pricing is also odd - while Hero-U was expensive compared to similar games, that one (albeit presumable much smaller in scope) is given away for next to nothing, depending on the buyer.

Anyway, I’m tempted, even though it seems a little casual. Did you try it? Anyone?

It’s a demo. I’ve read somewhere they expect to release it next year.  
They may even go to kickstarter to fund it:

Received a notification email today. The Kickstarter is supposed to go live “_at noon PDT on Tuesday, Oct. 2_” (sic!), so unfortunately not before 2029.

Assuming though that this is just a minor temporal mishap and not a puzzle for us to solve (sorry for spoiling the solution!), it might be as soon as tomorrow or the day after at the latest 😄.

I’ve yet to play Samorost 3, but I’ve been into the stuff they make since Samorost 1 in '03 or '04.

Machinarium was cool. Worth checking out if nothing else.

Yesterday _Argonus and the Gods of Stone_ was released.  
https://store.steampowered.com/widget/699540

I can’t say a lot about the game itself beside apparently being an adventure game, but I do know it’s from Zojoi who remade [Shadowgate](https://www.gog.com/game/shadowgate)! I hope it will be released on GOG too.

Interesting [review](https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198033489159/recommended/699540/).  
I’ve already seen someone complaining about a clunky UI but this guys says:

> People have written that the control scheme (using KB/M) was a tad clunky. I personally don’t think that’s the case at all.

Also they mentioned something about savegames…

* * *

I think someone also mentionend the puzzles being more on the light side, but IMHO this game is worth my support IF there comes a DRM-free version.
