changedWhat Has Changed?
changedThere are several things that have changed in the past few months, the most notable being that the game is a lot closer to completion than it was back then. We received a lot of feedback from the demo during the Kickstarter and the subsequent Steam Next Fest and adjusted the design accordingly ( here's some more info on that ). The design is now much more concise and aligned with the first game The Chosen Sisters Saga . That allows us to go for a shorter playtime and along with the work done on the game during the latter half of the year, a considerably lower funding goal. With more time to iterate on the design, we're also able to convey better what we're aiming for with the game, something that became clearer since last time.
addedEven though we didn't reach the funding goal with Kickstarter, it still did wonders with our exposure, and we're in a much better place with our visibility going into the new campaign.

What Has Changed?

Yes, we already tried Kickstarter in the summer and fell short of the funding goal pretty significantly, so why do we believe we'll make it this time?
