Penduloʼs New Adventure: Day One (PC /Mac, DRM-free)
http://www.lab.gamesplanet.com/dayone/Funded ?17,860 on a goal of ?300,000 58 days left.......
Day One will feature a thrilling plot in a comic adventure game - but not your typical lighthearted one. We want to create a sarcastic comedy, funny and adult at the same time. Ethan's cynical view of life - based on his idol Ambrose Bierce, author of The Dictionary of the Devil - will give us the chance to laugh about more serious subjects. After 18 years since our first game, we're no longer kids. Please donʼt misunderstand us: we still like pirate stories, however, pirates these days donʼt kidnap damsels in their ships, but hire ladies of negotiable affection in five star suites. Filthy old men in underwear can be so fun!
You can expect the usual high production values that have made Pendulo a reference in the genre: gorgeous 2D graphics, colorful characters, great cinematics, wonderful atmosphere and music, crafted puzzles, intricate stories, witty dialogues, tons of humor, crazy references to all kind of culture and media products... But this time, we'll make them matter.

We need the funds to make Day One a wonderful game. The wonderful game that the industry doesnʼt want us to develop because “it will scare the kids”.
With the initial 300.000 ? we will make be able to make a complete but short game, just like the one that the ground-breaking studio Double Fine wanted to make… before they got 3 million dollars to develop a full-sized one! However, we donʼt ask for millions. If we reach the golden figure of 750.000 ?, we will be able to develop a game as long as Runaway: A Twist of Fate, the last of our games that had the budget it needed. Gosh, those were the days!
