I thought this indie game looked cool and it looks like it needs help getting the message out if it's going to get funded.

 

[Punished Miku]

Wow, what a sick trailer. Animations were great. Definitely getting this if they ever finish it.

 

[Ozzy Onya A2Z]

Liked what I saw, cool styling and character animation.

 

[Guilty_AI]

F? Don't give up on it so fast.

 

[Kikorin]

Yeah, this is pixel art done right. It looks cool af, just seems a bit "slow" in some action, maybe because of animations.

I love that even though the graphics are low-fi the animation is pretty much motion captured.

Cool concept but the combat seems like it's doing too much at once. I don't believe that it's truly playable that way, probably just choreographed and animated. There were dodges, parries, weapons, flashy sidesteps, rolling over an enemy's back, several weapons, non-static combos. Seems suspicious.

The only way I could see that working is if they do some pseudo Arkham free flow combat system where there's a "do cool combo" button, a "dodge things in cool ways" button, and so on.

Seems suspicious alright but this remind me of one game was full of contextual animation all the way back in 1991 : Moonstone a hard day's knight
I don't know why (maybe the moon connexion) this game remind me of this oldie.
So my bet is, gameplay is going to be extremely hard in the sense that you'll have huge learning curve in order to be competent at it (knowing what animation plays at which distance, type of stuff), and it won't do very good because of that.

I'm not against a deep combat system that takes a lot of effort to learn and master. I did play 15+ hours of Resonance of Fate before shelving it, after all. I just think this video is meant to be a "pie in the sky" type thing of cool stuff they would do with the game if it gets funded. Unfortunately I don't buy into that type of thing after getting burned several times on kickstarter and seeing people mismanage funds and sometimes the games not ever coming out because of it. It does make a cool looking trailer though.

Reminds me a lot of Sifu, but in 2D.

You're right, remind me of the famous Chirac quote : "Promises only bind those who believe in them"

That trailer looks awesome! Definitely a day one purchase if it ever launches.

I hope it doesn't suffer the same fate as Replaced or The Last Night (haven't heard anything about them in a long time).

Unfortunately, only $7500 funded
