I'm making a new game. And YOU can be part of it!

INVITATION TO A MURDER
[p]My new game focuses on Hugo Falk, Vienna's – perhaps even Europe's – finest detective.[/p][p]He follows an anonymous invitation to Hollowmoore Hall, a mysterious villa in Southwest England. There, Falk meets five other guests. None of them know who their elusive host is. When they sit down for dinner and the lights suddenly go out, Hugo Falk already knows what comes next: murder![/p][p]But when the lights come back on, he makes a shocking discovery: He is the victim![/p][p]As life drains from his body, he looks around the table, wondering: Who killed him? And why?[/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p]
Another Kickstarter?
[p]After weighing my options carefully, I have decided to crowdfund again. My new game will move away from pixel-art and feature beutiful hand-drawn illustrations. The Kickstarter will finance these and other development costs. I am preparing the Kickstarter right now and plan to go live with it this spring.[/p][p][/p]
