A Case of the Crabs

friarphil · 03-23-2004, 03:53 PM

I'd like to announce that production on a new comedic Point-&-Click adventure is almost complete.

Nick Bounty: A Case of the Crabs is a short film noir style adventure game developed by Pinhead Games.

The game should see an official release by next month.
Check out the preview site here:

What do you guys think?

Excellent site design, looks very professional...

Pictures of your trilogy of movies starring the same character might be nice.

Very good-looking indeed. I look forward to it.

Looks good! But, um, do you have some idea what the 'case of the crabs' is, medically speaking?

The cover reminds me of GF. I love those noir style games. It looks really cool.

Trep - hopefully so! He did say though that its a comedy.

You weren't seriously replying to trep were you?
Because if you were then there is a thing or two you should probably know about the name of the game you're producing

I'm having a pretty bad case of the cramps myself...

Nice job. Look forward to checking it out once its completed.

Also, I like the catchy title, despite the apparent confusion it's caused

bigjko · 03-25-2004, 07:25 AM

Heh, I doubt there's really any confusion.

friarphil · 03-25-2004, 08:01 AM

Wow! Thanks for all of the positive words guys! There are still just a few bugs to work out and one last voiceover to put in place and the game will be ready! I think about a week, no more than 2!
