After a busy few weeks, I'm excited to announce that the new Kickstarter for Lord Winklebottom Investigates is now live!
Find the new campaign at: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/256029787/lord-winklebottom-investigates-murder-mystery-gira
I made some great contacts during the first campaign, with much better quotes for services like translation, which means that the new campaign can have a much lower goal without having to sacrifice any of the quality of the final game.
Also, a lot of people asked for a physical copy of the game, so I'm happy to say that this is now available for Windows, Mac and Linux. Plus, there's the option of a 90s style "big box" edition of the game which will fit right in to your classic adventure game collection.
There are also reduced prices for other goodies, so please give the new campaign a look.
As well as the new Kickstarter, I'm also going to be showing the game at Insomnia i64 this Easter weekend, so if any backers are going along, please come and say hello. I'll be in the Indie Zone, next to the Nintendo stand.
Thanks for your support!
