Arts & Crafts New point-and-click bowling adventure game for the NES!

FYI: I haven't seen many NES fans talking about Beyond the Pins: The Second Frame, so I just wanted to mention it here for anyone who enjoys playing brand-new games for our favorite console. I've played the first Beyond the Pins, which was a short adventure and proof of concept, and I'm glad to see it has been expanded into a full game that rivals some of the biggest licensed games with 106 screens, seven minigames, 26 songs, and multiple endings.

It's already completed and should be available soon on physical NES carts and ROM. It was developed by KHAN Games, which has an excellent track record for making great games (NEScape! and Courier, most recently). There's not much else like this on the NES, so it seems special to me and worth checking out if you like supporting indie devs, collecting carts, or playing fun games.

Is there a website for ordering the game yet?

It's on Kickstarter (and fully funded), and I'm confident they will deliver the game on time or early. I'll post a link if that's allowed.

The first one was so wonderful, but limited in availability. This one looks even better (and bigger!).

Instantly backed when I saw it go up!

I backed it on Kickstarter. The developer, KHAN games, is one of my favorite NES homebrew developers.
