Hey, guys... It's been a while since I've created a thread. And tonight I felt extra compelled to do so because, while browsing Kickstarter and multiple gaming sites, this project came to my attention:
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/spaniardmike/candle-a-dynamic-graphic-adventure
The project's 9 days away from getting funded... Or disappearing into sad obscurity. The video the team put up is one of the most well-made I've seen for this type of funding proposal, and the evident love to their craft melted my heart while watching it. These are very passionate people, working on a game that reflects all that, and I'd love to play it. So, I don't know if this type of thread is allowed... I sure hope so.
Because this game needs all the help we can give it.
p.s. And before anyone asks: no, I am not related to the development team in any way, though I wish I was.

Candle is a dynamic graphic adventure. It inherits the spirit of classic cinematic adventures like Out of This World or Flashback, and the gameplay mechanics of classic platformer adventures like Abe's Oddyssey and Abe's Exoddus, or Heart of Darkness. However, we want it to go one step forward, and so we have brought together all the key features in those games to create a unique title focused on calm puzzle resolution but with a modern and dynamic control over the character.
