Another Kickstarter project: [Lord Winklebottom Investigates](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/256029787/lord-winklebottom-investigates/description) with less than 3 days remaining. It needs help, it’s currently only at ~40%. People may have heard of it from last AdventureX: It descibes itself as a 1920s murder mystery point’n’click adventure made by a one-person team from UK: [Charlotte Sutherland](https://twitter.com/CharlottieLS). There will be a DRM-free release. ![](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/thimbleweedpark/original/2X/c/c25f711652a86caf57a43a3002bc1fbb6fe35875.gif) > **Obviously she is an adventure games fan...** > > ![](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/thimbleweedpark/original/2X/7/7b48ec5d0eb478bb593110ea76bb005fa773224b.png) ---

Interesting… BASS2 I’ve seen [Cecil’s tweet](https://twitter.com/CharlesCecil/status/1110216678745559040) about Apple event before, including rumours about an Apple games service. I was really hoping for a 2D pixel-art BASS2, oh well. ---

New narrative adventure game by Cyan! **Firmament** is now on Kickstarter: > **[Firmament](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1252280491/firmament)** > > From Cyan, the studio that brought you Myst, comes a next-generation narrative adventure. No official information about DRM-free yet. Edit: It’s noteworthy that the physical box will be a proper big box and will be handled by Fangamer. (There were complains about their physical release with [Obduction](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cyaninc/obduction/description) being just a DVD case). ---

Pity about all of these “no info about DRM-free” things you post. > [@Nor\_Treblig](#): > > Its designer [Chris Bateman](https://www.mobygames.com/developer/sheet/view/developerId,35703/) also designed games like [Discworld Noir](https://www.mobygames.com/game/discworld-noir) and [Ghost Master](https://www.gog.com/game/ghost_master). I’d very much buy Discworld Noir on GOG. I really enjoyed that game, but it’s annoying that you have to find a no-CD crack post-Win 9x due to the DRM. ---

Looks like they aren’t doing so bad 🙂. I just never got warm with their type of games. I mean, Myst was the kind of game that you simply had to play back then. But I would have given up on it pretty fast, were it not for the fact that the cluebook was already included in the box. Still, nice to see a larger video game project on Kickstarter for a change! ---

But it’s unlikely that we’ll get a pixel-art BASS2. Revolution has to sell those games and a pixel-art BASS2 would be hard to sell. And I have to admit, that the trailer doesn’t look that bad. It has an interesting “atmosphere”. (But don’t get me wrong: I would prefer a pixelated BASS too 🙂 ) ---

Doesn´t even have to be pixelated. Get one of the current regulars of Heavy Metal Magazine to do some backgrounds and you´re on the right track I´d say! 👌 ---

Yeah, that would be my preference as well. Point and click 2D game with high resolution. It’s a shame the genre mostly died / switched to 3D before we got to experience that. ---

So Heaven’s Vault got a release date: April 16th. Will probably not be able to play until after the Easter Weekend, but even then that’s less than a month from now 😄. ---

_Moonrise Fall_ ([Steam](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1035110/Moonrise_Fall/)) is an atmospheric exploration puzzle game.
