Plot of the Druid is an upcoming fantasy comedy point and click adventure, it's coming with Linux support and they're going to be putting out a demo on October 15.

"Harness the power of nature to solve problems. Avoid awkward social situations by turning into a small furry creature. Befriend wood spirits that are very reclusive, especially when they have hangovers. Crash a radical party by the Druids Against Nature. Rescue a beautiful princess from a nasty bladder infection. And all while you’re trying to finish school. Which better happen soon, because an insanely dangerous tournament is about to start. No one’s ever won the tournament, but who cares when you’re a powerful druid, right?"

Looks like it could be another good one, currently in development by Adventure4Life Studios who worked on the fan-made remaster of Indiana Jones and the fate of Atlantis, which ended up being shut down by Lucasfilm. Plot of the Druid uses high-definition hand-painted drawings that capture the feel of old-school pixel art, mixed with plenty of sarcastic humour found in the classics.

A 480p video ...... wow!

I got distracted, what was this game about again?

A remaster of the old Indy games would be awesome! I guess Lucas is more protective of that (and Star Wars!) than they are of Day of the Tentacle; I enjoyed this one:

What's going on with the font? A mix of small and capital letters, and the small letter are scaled to be a high as capitals.

Got my hands on the beta and the Linux version works quite well. Still some rough edges (probably on all systems), but I'm optimistic.
