Girl Genius: Adventures In Castle Heterodyne, the upcoming action-adventure from Rain Games (Teslagrad / World to the West) now has a new trailer to finally show it off a bit more. This was crowdfunded on Kickstarter back in 2020, so we've been waiting a while to see how it's been coming along.
"Discover the award winning, gaslamp fantasy world of “Girl Genius™”, experiencing Agatha Heterodyne’s story, as she navigates the hostile hallways, catacombs and kitchens of her ancestral home, Castle Heterodyne"

When the trailer started, I was thinking "great, one more third-person adventure...", then the hook thingy showed up and the little walking clock for small spaces.
Now I'm curious about it. If they manage to make it good enough I may grab it.
