Kickstarter Tuesday

Really good selection of games this week - here are my Top 5:

Melancholy Republic by Cloud Runner Studios

A JRPG inspired, cinematic story driven game. Set in the beautiful city state Lorna, uncover the conspiracies and broken souls within.

Funding Goal - £15,000 by Friday 10th April

My Opinion - A deep and complex JRPG with a richly detailed city to explore. I'm very excited about Melanchology Republic, an achievement in itself as I've never been a massive fan of JRPGs. The story, music and general feel of the game though as really sold me on it.

The Baader Meinhof Phenomenon by the Bearded Pixel

A psychological thriller aiming to raise awareness of mental health and the long term effects of heavy drug use on the human brain.

Funding Goal - £25,000 by Friday 3rd April

My Opinion - I love the idea of this game - a psychological thriller set in an English Country Village.  Looking at the Kickstarter campaign and their development blog, this game has a lot of potential.

Face iT by Tlön Studios

FACE IT is a game about facing the most challenging fellings in human mind. The darkness is inside you, waiting for light.

Funding Goal - $5,000 by Saturday 4th April

My Opinion - Following on from the The Baader Meinhof Phenomenon, Face iT focuses on the mind.  To get a full appreciation of it, check out their Kickstarter page, which also has a link to a free demo of 10 levels - from my short play through it was very impressive.

Funding Goal - $5,000 (Canadian) by Sunday 5th April

Octanis: The Legendary Thief by Khalil Samuels

Play as Dutch, a boy who must save the land from utter demise and live up to his family legacy as a master thief.

Funding Goal - $300 by Sunday 22nd March

My Opinion - Finally this week is a small classic RPG being developed by a single developer, with an impressive amount of work looking like it has already gone in it to it.  If you like classic RPGs then take a look and see what you think.
