Canadian developer EggNut is hoping to secure funding for their cinematic pixel art adventure game Backbone, which does look and sound pretty interesting.
It will feature a "smell-based" stealth feature (mask your scent in a garbage bin for example) as well as action elements, where you will be tasked with solving cases, interrogating witnesses along with a healthy dose of exploration in a dystopian Vancouver.

Backbone should release on Steam, as well as GOG and Humble Store. They're aiming for a release with Linux support in Q2 of 2019 so it's a while away, sure does look good though. They're also working on a demo to be available for backers sometime this summer.
They've got around 18 days to go with $40K pledged towards their $63K (Canadian Dollar) goal, find it on Kickstarter.
Thanks for the tip, bingus!
Quoting: DepeszaIt looks like Backbone was heavily inspired by comic album series Blacksad. Since Blacksad is one of my favorite comics, I hope that Backbone will be good as well.
I didn't know about Blacksad but adding it to my next comic to buy, thanks :D
