Check out the trailer here. They have a shiny new Official Website here. Gibbous - A Cthulhu Adventure is a comedy point 'n click love letter to classic-era Lucas adventures, HP Lovecraft, Hitchcock and may, many others. A lighthearted spoof of the Cthulhu Mythos, Gibbous will have you controlling 3 protagonists, dealing with strange cultists, ancient voodoo, and Dead Cthulhu himself. Well, "dead" is just a matter of opinion...
Everything revolves around the dreaded Necronomicon and how it affects the protagonists' lives. Grizzled detective Don R. Ketype wants it because he always gets his man (or book); and easy going, easy living librarian Buzz Kerwan stumbles upon it and accidentally transforms his cat, Kitteh, into a talking abomination, thus setting on a quest to return her back to cathood.
Classically-inspired point and click adventure game Dark yet humorous – think Lovecraft meets Day Of The Tentacle Frame-by-frame traditional animation Lovingly painted 2d backgrounds inspired by Transylvanian architecture and nature Exploration, character and story-driven experience Fully voiced Unique item combination responses for just about everything, up to six “examine” responses Original soundtrack contains different musical themes for almost every screen Tentacles, eldritch things one should not speak of, and all kinds of insanity, both cute and evil Despite being HD, the game is intended to feel like a 90s adventure with a few modern enhancements like autosaving, hotspot revealer etc. Gibbous draws inspiration from HP Lovecraft's writings, classic Lucas Arts adventures such as Day Of The Tentacle, Monkey Island and Grim Fandango, Hitchcock movies, classic Warner Brother cartoons and Hayao Miyazaki's richly detailed environment art. Kickstarter campaign coming April 2016. Gibbous is being developed by Stuck In Attic, a three person Transylvanian Romanian independent game studio. Happy Gaming! Ana

Hey, guys! Hey Ana, thanks for helping us spread the word! A couple of news: first and foremost, demo now available on www.gibbousgame.com - PC Mac Linux. Let me know what you think! Second: we have an upcoming Kickstarter, on the success of which Gibbous' future existence depends. It will go live April 5th 3 PM EDT (9 PM CET). We have a draft campaign page you can check out here: http://tinyurl.com/gn54xq3 ...it's about 95 percent done. If you're interested, you can hit the friendly button that notifies you when we launch. Or just add a Gibbous Kickstarter alarm to your phone. Make the alarm tone the Imperial March. Guaranteed 100% getting pumped for crowdfunding! Thanks for your interest everyone, and if you have any kind of questions/feedback/suggestions, let me know!
