The final 48 hours on Kickstarter 💜

Hi everyone 💜

I can hardly believe it, but my Kickstarter campaign is entering its FINAL 48 HOURS! A whole month has passed since I first posted here when it launched, and SO much has changed since then. I wanted to take a moment to share it all with you, because honestly none of it would have happened without this little community.

Since the campaign began:

🎮 Over 500 of you played the demo, thank you so much!! Getting to watch people explore the world I built (even a little part of it) has been the best part of all this!

✨ Around 20 of you left feedback, which means a lot!

📈 Wishlists have doubled to about 1,600

💬 Over 80 people joined our Discord community

📰 Two press outlets wrote about Velanit

⭐ Kickstarter chose it as a Project We Love

💖 And most importantly, 218 people have backed the game so far, pushing the project to 80% funded mark!

I'm a little overwhelmed typing all that out, honestly. Thank you 💜

What press says

Indie Games Devel published a feature about Velanit, calling it "one of the most compelling cozy projects currently in development". You can read the full piece here.

And shortly after, Cozy Game Reviews wrote about the game too, describing it as "the rare kind of cozy game that gives you something to figure out". Full article here.

Two indie outlets writing about a solo dev's first project on the same week feels like a good milestone and I'm really grateful 💖

A little reveal

Also for the final stretch I revealed the first NPC for Velanit this week - Luna, the town's alchemist! She runs the shop with the purple sign in the town square, keeps to herself, and has a magpie that seems to know things it shouldn't. If you'd like to meet her properly, she's waiting on the Kickstarter page 💜

Help make it happen

If you've been thinking about backing, these final hours are the moment! There are backer-exclusive in-game cosmetics, the chance to put your name in the game's credits, and more. And for the final 48 hours, for anyone who wanted to be part of this as an early supporter but couldn't back at full price, I added a Pioneer tier for just €1 where you also can get exclusive rewards and my eternal gratitude 🥹

We're so close! We need just a final push in these last hours to make it happen 🥹

Thank you for being here, for playing, for wishlisting! Whatever happens in these final hours, I'm so grateful you've been part of the journey 💖
