Games on Kickstarter

[Guybrush20X6]

Post games currently on Kickstarter here and maybe get then a supporter or two.

I'll go first with this one, Mansion Lord. It's basically a murder mystery business sim. If any combination of that appealed to you check it out and give them your dosh.

I thought this sounded interesting:

Dead Century Mosaic

“Mosaic” is a globe-spanning, monster-fighting, mystery-solving puzzle role playing game. You command a small team of archaeologists as they try to stay one step ahead of Third Reich scientists in piecing together an ancient mystery from the dawn of human civilization. The story is divided into downloadable episodes, each featuring a new region to explore and new plot developments. Dynamic puzzle-based combat and a robust customizable command system keep the gameplay exciting.

So basically it's an RPG but with a puzzle based battle system. In the link it shows how this system works which isn't the most original thing ever, but could lead to solid gameplay. Another reason I chose this was because of the varied ethnical and cultural backgrounds of the characters. Homosexuals are underrepresented in video games, and it's interesting to see one that incorporates them but doesn't make a huge deal about it. At least it looks that way.

Great idea for a thread!

This game seems pretty cool and I'm going to back it soon.

It's called Midora. It's a 2D RPG that is influenced by games like Zelda. Highly recommend checking it out, the art seems amazing.

Midora (pronounced "mid-ora") is a love letter to the classic 2D RPG adventures like The Legend of Zelda or Mana that have frequented consoles and enamored audiences for generations. It' charming world to explore, with new mechanics to learn, quests to fulfill, and all while hopefully tugging at your nostalgic heartstrings. Midora seeks to bring you the same tried and true feel of familiar titles, but with the grace of a new, modern experience, with in a beautiful, 100% pixel art setting.

Also, I couldn't find any actual sprite art/screenshots on their kickstarter page but I saw some on their website, check it out here!

Looks really cool, the art style reminds of Beyond Oasis.

Yes I can definitely see that. I really hope this game can make it's goal! I'd love to see it succeed.

Also, yes! I can't believe I didn't see that when I was looking through the site.

It made it's goal though so that's good!

Well this is a thread that will eat away at my money...

Midora looks cool, but I don't feel like I know enough to pledge just yet (even with website trawling); I'll keep my eye on it.


I just wanna pop these here:

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2026326625/starwhal-just-the-tip
it's to the end of it's campaign but it's all sorts of fun just with the demo, so thought people may be interested.

And since someone mentioned Shantae is still taking donations I'll post:

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/redknight/grapple-knight
which is still taking Paypal donations, and is setting up a humble storefront for donations hoping to get it's Wii U port. The demo's rough, but I see a lot of potential in it.
