This story-driven adventure game set in 1960s Germany places you in the role of a young scientist who finds himself having to save the world.

As you can see from the above trailer, Trüberbrook [Official Site] looks simply wonderful with hand-made backgrounds and careful attention to detail in its visuals. It’s slated to be a type of point and click adventure game with a streamlined interface.
The story places the protagonist and young nerdy scientist, Hans Tannhauser, in an idyllic location in a remote part of Germany in the 1960s. Things are not all quite as they might seem and things escalate into what will hopefully be an interesting adventure.
You can click below to see all of the promised features:
- Suspense! Mystery! Thrills! After all, it's a single player sci-fi mystery adventure game. We want to keep you entertained!
- Join American student Tannhauser, stranger in a strange land

- Inspired by Twin Peaks, The X-Files, Stranger Things & Star Trek

Quoting: wolfyrionI don't like the noses of the characters and yes that is a reason for not backing them up!!!
*lol*
If they were serious with previous projects.
Thinking to try my luck on the lowest tier that gives a game (25$)
Quoting: razing32Hmm , wondering if we have any German users who might know this btf GmbH firm.Avtually I don't know them. So far most german companies have delivered - also when it comes to Linux ports. I think they might be someone I'd rather trust.

Quoting: razing32Hmm , wondering if we have any German users who might know this btf GmbH firm.Given that they work professionally for German television and even did two retro mini point and click adventures featuring German television presenter and comedian Jan Böhmermann I think we can be reasonably certain they will deliver a well rounded finished product. Looking at the art style and the unusual alternative controls (separate head movement) they feature in the video I'd assume this is also somewhat of a passion project.

I haven't played their games, both are not available for Linux, even created with Unity. Who's interested in the games, they are available for smartphones too but in German only, you can download the first one for free: Game Royale 1, Game Royale 2. But Keep in mind, if you don't know the TV Show you might not have any connection to the story of the games.
Quoting: ArehandoroA bit of light and uniqueness in the adventure world! Hurray! Though every time I get more reluctant of KickStarter, not sure if I should back it.
I said this but ended up backing it a few hours later xD
EDIT: They will also release for Switch, that was the main aspect of the kickstarter that made me back them in case the Linux version is cancelled.

Quoting: BTREQuoting: Eike@BTRE: Thanks for your articles! Sometimes, I find them quite... indie :), but there are surely pearls I would have missed (like this one).Sometimes I write about stuff that I really want to talk about, sometimes I write about stuff that really needs doing. Other times about things that would otherwise fall through the cracks because GOL doesn't always have the manpower to cover every single game and release. We try to cover all the things that are submitted but it's not always possible.
More to the point: these past few days I've mostly been covering for Liam, who has been busy moving and has had limited internet and computer time. Your thanks is still very appreciated! :D
Excellent work :)
Oh and the name doesn't mean anything but coincidentally could be pronounced as "Buttery" which suits me just fine.
