300% Funded! New Stretch Goal: Relaxing Scenes (ASMR)! & Shout out
over 3 years ago – Wed, Sep 30, 2020 at 02:30:49 AM

300% Funded! Thank you!

Today we woke up with the news that Lonesome Village campaign has raised 300% of the Funding Goal! And this is thanks to you! :D


With this, we have also completed the "Beach Stretch Goal" and now we will have a lovely beach inside Lonesome Village :)

New Stretch Goal: Relaxing Scenes (ASMR)!

Now, for the next Stretch Goal, we have decided to include Relaxing Scenes with ASMR Moments.

For those who ask what ASMR is:

ASMR (autonomous sensory meridian response) is a relaxing, often sedative sensation that begins on the scalp and moves down the body.

In other words, we will include moments in the game where the player will see a looping and relaxing scene with the intention to relax and enjoy.

The goal for this will be: $1 680 000 MXN (≈$80 000 USD)

Here is a couple of examples of the ASMR Moments we want to include (credits belong to video creators):

Hope you like it and continue sharing the campaign to reach this Stretch Goal.

Shout out: A Fox Tale - Pixel Art Platformer 

We have been following this beautiful pixel art platformer for a while, and we would love to see A Fox Tale’s final version.

The features of the game:

  • Hand drawn pixel-art graphics and animation brings life to the world and characters
  • Responsive and fluid controls with tight platforming mechanics
  • Use the environment to help you go through the new zones!

Eva, A Fox Tale’s main character, is forced to leave her life and take an unexpected and dangerous journey.

With a combination of tight game mechanics, breathtaking visuals and thoughtful storytelling throughout. You must help Eva, this will not be an easy task. The decisions you make will ultimately decide your own fate, and that of others.

Let's help this Kickstarter campaign reach its goal, it has 8 days left:

New Tier: Character Painting! Social Challenge info! & Shout out
over 3 years ago – Mon, Sep 28, 2020 at 11:28:59 PM

11 days have passed since the launch of this campaign and we are very close to reaching 300% of the funding goal and very close to reach the Beach Stretch Goal!

We want to say thanks to you all for your support! We are so happy, the response we are getting in this campaign is super motivating everyone inside the team.

New Tier: Character Painting!

A lot of people have asked about the chance of designing a Character or NPC for the game.

We had a special Tier for that and it sold very quickly (Designer Tier, was limited to 10 units).

This is why we decided to open a new Tier (Painter Tier - limited to 30 units) where the backers will have the chance to include a special character inside Lonesome Village, this as a painting inside a very nice and elegant frame to be placed inside the Tower.

Painter Tier price is $7 500 MXN (≈ $350 USD)

Hope you like this new Tier :)

Shout out: Scarlet Republics - a Renaissance inspired tactical RPG 

This time we want to give a shout out to another cool project live on Kickstarter, it is Scarlet Republics (62 hours to go)!

Scarlet Republics is what would happen if Fire Emblem had a love-child with Divinity and a Joe Abercrombie book. It’s a tactical RPG inspired by a mix of western and Japanese gameplay with a deeply interactive and immersive story.

The game is set in the vibrant and treacherous City-states of Corsano, a fantasy world inspired by the Italian Renaissance and the art of Leonardo Da Vinci. Lose yourself in a mature fantasy story of vengeance and conquest, with plenty of choice, consequence, and wit.

Scarlet Republics is on its final 62 hours! go take a look at the campaign and consider pledging this awesome and spooky project:

Shout out: There is no Light 

Today we’d like to give a shout-out to a beautifully designed action-adventure game called There is No Light!

Explore different locations of the Underworld. Fight your way through hordes of monsters, defeat deadly bosses and find a way to the light which has been taken away by the Church of the Great Hand.

Game’s setting is full of profound lore and unique gameplay aspects. For example – the instant weapon switching that allows you to perform various types of combos in battle, and the Karma system that makes the in-game world a living and constantly changing organism that reacts accordingly to the player’s actions. Will it be a good or bad influence - you have to find out on your own.

You can visit the Kickstarter campaign for There is no Light here:

Thanks again for all your support!

Two great Shout Outs!

We want to share the Kickstarter campaigns of two great titles that are both on the 3 final days!!!

Shout out: Dwerve — Zelda-Inspired Action RPG with Tower-Defense Combat 

It is not necessary to say we love Zelda-inspired games (who doesn’t), but this game is really SOMETHING ELSE.

Dwerve is a beautifully crafted Zelda-inspired action RPG with innovative tower defense-based combat. Inspired by SNES RPGs like A Link to the Past, Dwerve takes all the mechanics you know and love: dungeon crawling, questing, exploring, and storytelling; and presents it with a new style of tactical turret-based combat where strategic turret and trap placement decide the outcome of each battle!

You can visit the Kickstarter campaign for Dwerve here (last 3 days!):

Shout out: One Lonely Outpost 

One Lonely Outpost is a sci-fi farming sim where you start a farm on a lifeless alien planet, growing not just a farm but a whole town and community with it! Gene splice crops, explore ancient ruins, and more across a handcrafted pixel art world.

If you like the concept of building up a world from the scratch, this colonization game is definitely for you.
