Oh, and one of those voice actors is Tom Baker.

With the help of £20,000 from Kickstarter backers, and then the involvement of a German publisher, that's now happened, and Nelly is realised in a gorgeous high-res world, with professional voice actors, and some really fantastic animation. A short, but completely adorable and very funny AGS freebie, it was begging to be something bigger. The original Nelly Cootalot was a love letter from Beckett-King to his girlfriend, on whom Nelly is based. It certainly looked that way in the first few scenes that I played. If that's to be the standard throughout this nautical 2D point-and-click adventure, then we could be in for a treat. A joke that made me laugh out loud (as someone with a long-term mental illness, so there), completely thrown away on looking at an object in a scene that you don't need to use. Padded envelopes, notes wannabe pirate Nelly in the opening moments of the game, are for the insane letters. Yesterday I sat down in a Starbucks with creator Alasdair Beckett-King and had a play.
You did, and with additional funding from snazzily named publishers Application Systems, the game is coming out on the 22nd. So in 2013, when a Kickstarter was announced to fund a full-length sequel, Nelly Cootalot: The Fowl Fleet, we demanded you fund it. I adored it, and it appeared in our first ever advent calendar. RPS had barely gotten started when free point-and-click adventure Nelly Cootalot: Spoonbeaks Ahoy appeared in 2007.
