The game uses claymation and is a spiritual successor to the adventure game "Neverhood." Looks interesting

Looks like the Kickstarter is going to fail but the team is cozying up to Nintendo so maybe they'll fund the game.

Looks interesting. The start of the video makes me think they should just make a movie out of it.

They said it's part of their stretch goal to put it on Wii U so I doubt that would happen. It's kind of a shame it's not going to get funded.

They're over 800k now, so maybe not. It would be great if surge of last-day supporters pushed it over the goal.

They've jumped up $25,000 in the past few hours, and popular Kickstarter campaigns are always fastest at their starts and ends. I think they'll hit $900,000 easily.

I used to love Earthworm Jim, Skullmonkeys, and The Neverhood when I was a kid, but after learning how much of an ass Doug Tennapel is it kind of make me not like anything he does.

...and here we go, another $25,000 in the past four hours or so. They've only got $50,000 left to go over 22 hours - should be easy enough to do.

The additional funding for a Wii U version has also been met. :)

Wow. Sounds like it got a larger than normal bump at the end.

I generally don't like the whole "from the maker(s) of:" thing going on Kickstarter. If they aren't making games they are most usually washed up and I have doubt their new game will be much successful. But hey, let's not be too pessimistic.
