Kaptain Brawe almost ready for orders

Things are looking up for adventures these days -- quite literally in the case of Kaptain Brawe: A Brave New World, a comic sci-fi adventure that's due to arrive in November.

Originally conceived by indie developer Napthalite Productions, after a long hiatus the game was picked up and is now being finished by Cateia Games (The Legend of Crystal Valley, Hotel). A break from the company's earlier dramatic offerings, Kaptain Brawe is set in an alternate 19th century world where space pirates terrorize the galaxy. Players must step into the gravity boots of the titular character, a Space Police officer who "will embark on a journey filled with quests, conspiracies and general chaos, as he follows the lead of two kidnapped alien scientists."

Kaptain Brawe will be available for download on PC and Mac, plus mobile platforms as well, including the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad. The scheduled release date is November 1st, and pre-orders will begin on September 15th at the official website.
