Can I get a GIF of her shaking those hips from the pitch video?

Well here's the evolution of Shantae from the KS video:

Keep complaining about the tan and you'll probably get it added as a stretch goal.

Anyways I'm backing this because it has the day zero sale price and I know this game is being made for a console that I want it on. If more reliable companies did stuff like this I'd back more games. This to me is exactly the same as a Newegg preorder deal.

I didn't expect this to be another Shantae game since there's already one that isn't released yet on the way. I hope that if they're crowd-funded, they'll be able to make a complete game this time, though.

I bet if enough people bring up the fact that they're unhappy she's so white, they'll be willing to make a change.

A lot of people complained about Zoe's new look during the Dreamfall Chapters Kickstarter and they actually showed themselves making changes to her model DURING the Kickstarter.

Looks like the same sprites in a 3D world approach DuckTales took, but much more cohesive. Wonder just how long these chapters are.

bleurgh I havent been a fan of this choice Wayforward has been making since their Batman Brave and the Bold game, but if it looks cohesive im down
 
I think this may be the first Kickstarter project that I actually back. Wouldn't mind going for the $35 tier to get that digital artbook and soundtrack.

Previous trends point to Kickstarters rarely detracting from one another. I'd imagine having a bunch of old-school 2D platformer fans currently "on" Kickstarter will only do Shantae favours.
Normally I'd be down for the hardcover art book, but I can't justify spending that much on two KSs at about the same time. In my solitary, specific case, their timing cost them around $188.

I didn't even notice that until you pointed it out.

Someone should start a petition or something.

Backed!
they probably should've waited for the Mighty No.9 hype to pass over, not many people are willing to back 2 games in one week.

mmmmmmmm HD Shantae

gotta say I'm tempted

but considering the 3DS version is still in the works, I think I feel comfortable not backing this one. Will buy when it's released.

1) Back
2) Read page
3) Watch video

I think I didn't follow the proper order.
Nah, if a developer you trust makes a game you want, that is the proper order. I used it for Project Eternity, with a rather high pledge level.

Also backed this at minimum level, looks interesting.

I went ahead and backed without ever having played a Shantae game. Wayforward just puts out too much good stuff to be denied.
 
Backed. So backed.

Now we just have to wait for that vocal minority to fake outrage and start hate campaigns to Wayforward over the fact that Shantae is a cute/sexy character.

Cool. Backed at $60. I might throw in more before the campaign is over.

And yeah, Shantae is way too pale. Luckily, I imagine that's an easy fix.

I'm a big fan of Wayforward. Loved these games on the Gameboy I'm definitely going to backing this.
