Do you remember Manic Mansion? The Monkey Island series? The genius behind those great adventure games is back, with a kickstarter project for a new old style adventure, Thimbleweed Park. Thimbleweed Park is the curious story of two washed up detectives called in to investigate a dead body found in the river just outside of town. It’s a game where you switch between five playable characters while uncovering the dark, satirical and bizarre world of Thimbleweed Park. There are also multiple possible endings.

It's a game with a very retro feel, but brought up-to-date with improved programming techniques and advances in technology when compared to the original.

With 23 days to go, it is already funded, but there are some interesting extended goals, including an android version.
