But this in not the only way to watch the show. For the first time in the 34 year history of the awards, you can attend the event in person with a limited number of tickets still available to buy for £10 from www.goldenjoysticktickets.eventbrite.com - but move fast as they are only on sale until 17 November and only a handful are still available.

Detective Gallo is a gorgeous-looking hand-illustrated and hand-animated point & click, comic-noir adventure game.  Its protagonist is a feathered and grumpy private eye struggling with a very tricky case, bizarre characters, and puzzles that will put his insight and patience to the test.  Exotic plants are being murdered, and something sinister is going on beyond what is at first evident...  "For the most cynical and sarcastic detective there is, a case that starts out as trivial domestic abuse will turn out to be the most intricate investigation he and his cactus(!) have ever seen..."

Detective Gallo has recently been Greenlit, and is seeking funding support through eppella, a crowd-funding site I admit I've never heard of before, but I presume they're a bit thing in Italy.  At any rate this looks like a game well worth supporting with sumptuous visuals and a wonderfully quirky plot.  Check out the Funding Campaign and also the game's alpha demo.
