After a good bit of silence, 3 Minutes to Midnight is pretty much done now with the developers noting they're reading it for release in August. This follows their Kickstarter success back in 2019.

What is it? A comedy adventure with a sprawling story and colorful cast. Betty Anderson can’t remember who she is, but she has bigger worries—like a doomsday plot threatening to wipe out the human race. Join Betty to crack the conspiracy that starts with a bang and ends at 3 Minutes to Midnight.

The latest update on their Kickstarter notes it will be "released between the 5th and the 16th of August 2024" with a proper set date and new trailer due sometime soon. Language support has also expanded so now it will have support for Spanish, German, English, French, Brazilian Portuguese, and Catalan with others coming post-release.

It also clearly notes the game will have full Native Linux and Steam Deck support at release.

They also put up a sneak-peak video:

The full post goes into a fair bit of detail all the improvements they've managed to put in, along with various things that went wrong like logistical issues with the actors, technical issues and more. Worth a read.

You can follow it on Steam.

Getting good Broken Sword vibes from that.

I'm waiting this game for ages. I met the developers at Barcelona and I played a mini demo. IT has been retraced for ages.
Also, it's in Catalan. Almost no game it's in Catalan, my language. For this alone, It's worth to support the developers.

Looks like an adventure game to buy.
Been watching this one for a while. Can't wait for it to get to GOG. Hopefully with native Linux support!
I think I had missed this up to now.

But after seeing the "*cocks gun in Italian*" subtitle, I cannot not wishlist it.

One of 19 point and click's on my wishlist not yet released, and one of the dozen I wasn't sure they'll ever be.
