Dropsy: A Point and Click Hugventure is out this September, and its trailer is a thing of surreal beauty

At first glance the latest trailer for surreal point and click adventure game Dropsy: A Point and Click Hugventure might convince you that you're slowly losing your mind, starring as it does a handless, broken-toothed clown who hugs everything he sees. It's a concept that should have dedicated coulrophobes running for the hills, but actually that's not creator Jay Tholen's intention at all – the game is about “loving the unloveable”, and despite Dropsy looking like the sort of creature that would corner you in a nightmare and devour your soul, he's actually just a lovely chap looking for a place to fit in.

Dropsy makes Kickstarter goal, arriving on PC in October 2014
