From indie developer Intuit by Design, Vincent the Vampire is a classic point-and-click adventure heavily inspired by games like Day of the Tentacle, Grim Fandango and Full Throttle. It will have a truly original story, engaging and quirky characters and a darker delivery along the lines of I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream. The game will feature more adult themes as compared to some other games in the genre but will still maintain a sense of humor and poke fun at some established clichés in vampire movies and games. It will also play with the genre a bit; additionally, new things will be added in an effort to push adventure games forward.

Vincent the Vampire is a game set on a lost island in an ancient decrepit city. The inhabitants of the island mostly consist of Vampires, Werewolves and Cyborgs, but other inhabitants include cultists, a monk reincarnated as a pot plant, a psychotic ’80s super computer, lawyers, ghosts, thieves, vacationing demons, the Underlord, Death and many more…

Vincent has been a photocopier technician for the largest corporation on the island for seven years. One day, in a sudden moment of pure clarity, Vincent realizes that his job and life are pointless. He leaves his job and for the first time starts to explore the island where he lives, but his exploration is cut short when he is brutally murdered. He is understandably surprised to wake up the next day to discover he is undead.

Vincent is then reluctantly dragged into the underground culture of the undead and gets stuck having to save the world from an ancient war, because nobody else can be bothered.

Vincent the Vampire will be released on Windows, Mac and Linux; additional platforms will be added if the applicable stretch goal is met. Intuit by Design is looking to raise at least $30,000 AUD on Kickstarter by December 15, 2014. Please be generous.
