They're also going for another stretch goal, an area called "The Gullet", if they reach $4.75m by October 16th: http://tormentrpg.tumblr.com/post/97763206275/updated-our-journal-32-a-new-look [External Link]

Really, this video looks, sounds and feels so damn much like Planescape: Torment, I can't contain myself.

Well, they didn't specify if that's only for the code or also for the assets. If the former, you still need to buy the game to play it.

There's no way I'd add all my 348(*) ScummVM games by hand, though. Yes, that does include lots of different versions per game. :P

EDIT: (*) Oops, forgot AGI/SCI games
