Title: 9 Years of Shadows Kickstarter
Post by: Dark Nemesis on April 28, 2020, 09:37:05 AM
So, while i was browsing the  internet today, i came across this project. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/halberdstudios/9-years-of-shadows (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/halberdstudios/9-years-of-shadows)

I think this a crossover  of Castlevania and Metroid, i'm going to try that early demo and see for my self. Also: We are pleased to announce that the soundtrack will feature the participation of legendary composers Michiru Yamane and Manami Matsumae, of Castlevania and Mega Man fame respectively.

That does look interesting  :)  Although the art style doesn't quite grab me as I'm sure it does other people. And while I don't see it on the kick-starter goals, the animations for the main character are a bit stiff and thus could use some more fluidity. But the concept is enough to grab me so I'll see where this goes.

I might support physical media on Kickstarter, but after everything I've been through, I'm not giving a cent towards any videogame crowdfunder for a good long while. But I might get this if it releases, looks neat. Although looking at it again, that issue is already solved, seems like the funding was completed a while ago.

Seconded. After waiting one year for Limited Run’s Celeste and PlayAsia’s Odallus+Oniken As well as ks’ing Bloodstained which was delayyyyed, I won’t be preordering and/ or crowdfunding games any longer.

This looks great though. I love the screwattack move thrown in. The graphics are perhaps a bit inspired by Hollow Knight in terms of the outline of the sprites? In terms of the coverart I’m not convinced, but the in-game art looks fine to me.
