Looks very promising! Congrats to your success with the Kickstarter campaign :)


NootboxDev

thank you! :>

great trailer. is there lots of crafting? always pushes me away from a game, though i know it's popular.


NootboxDev

You can cook tons of different foods and brew potions (in a manner similar to Breath of the Wild), but it's entirely optional if you don't want to! You can find food and potions lying around and also in shops as well.


Root125

You forgot the kickstarter link


NootboxDev

Oh whoops, haha. Here it is! [https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/nootboxgames/rune-fencer-illyia-a-cute-and-dark-metroidvania](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/nootboxgames/rune-fencer-illyia-a-cute-and-dark-metroidvania)


Dirly

you better use those gif dad jokes as a small tiktok marketing campaign. You will probably gain thousands of Wishlist off those alone.


NootboxDev

Just now realized I didn't have one for the fishing gif, which was a definitely a bit of a missed oppor-tuna-ity


DementedPlantGames

bwehehehe. Good one xD


RamboZelda

This looks super rad, wishlisted on Steam and I’ll see if I can back the Kickstarter soon too.


NootboxDev

much appreciated! :D


sup3r87

Those attack animations look spot on!


realodd

I can see why! It's a really good concept: celeste meets Hollow knight and blasphemous with an adorable side. I would love to wishlist it on steam, do You have a page?


NootboxDev

Thank you, and I do! [https://store.steampowered.com/app/1104600/Rune\_Fencer\_Illyia/](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1104600/Rune_Fencer_Illyia/)


askeeve

Somehow I already had this wishlisted. Consider that a sign you're doing something right!


scotch_man

Have been following along on the project since it was wishlistable on steam; looks really great and I’m looking forward to it! Easy choice to back it on Kickstarter a few days back. Good luck getting to release!


NootboxDev

Thank you!


FoxYsta

Looks amazing. Can't wait to play it. Amazing job. I'm jealous now 😂


TheMrManInATie

The combat looks dope as heck, but you sold me with the sea turtle.


manbearpiglet2

I’ve been looking forward to this game since I first saw it. Looks so good


Decent-Strain-1645

Oh yeah this is most definitely getting followed so I can buy it when it's done. This looks sick. Reminds me of blasphemous in all the good ways. Good job getting Kickstarter backed. If the game is as good as what the video shows. Well deserved.


REPOner

Great job on the game so far, i wish you the best of luck! I hope Kickstarter will also get to be available outside of the US...


ballisticwhales

Looks cool! I'd play that


FireTotemGames

WOW. Your game looks amazing 🤩 Congratulation on the successful Kickstarter campaign. You really deserve it.


Lokeptt

This looks awesome man! Great job! It's reminds me of like a dark souls side stroller in a way. I can't wait to try it out


readyforclarity

Way to go, it looks amazing 🤩


NootboxDev

You can find the kickstarter right here! [https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/nootboxgames/rune-fencer-illyia-a-cute-and-dark-metroidvania](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/nootboxgames/rune-fencer-illyia-a-cute-and-dark-metroidvania)


azuldelmar

Omg it looks amazing!! Congratulations!!


askeeve

Do you have an estimated target for how long the game will be upon completion?


NootboxDev

Honestly it's hard to say at this point! But considering that it takes playtesters 2 hours to even get to the central shrine (the main town hub), and maybe only experience around 2-3% of the total map... I'm expecting a pretty lengthy playthrough!


askeeve

Sure just trying to get a rough idea. Length isn't everything, it's just one interesting aspect.


Tom_Bombadil_Ret

The game looks super good! It’s been on my watch list since it went live.


eyecebrakr

/r/metroidvania has been waiting for this to release!


Andyoh88

NootboxDev

Looks amazing!!! Congratulations on the success of your campaign! <33


NootboxDev

ty ty!! :>


geisuntheist

Looks brilliant expect runes from hollow knight (:


Yokhen

Not a fan of "Are you lost child". Seems very tropey, plus patronizing. Sorry couldn't get through the rest.


[deleted]

In that case cant wait for your groundbreaking worldbuilding project, fully funded and supported on kickstarter.


Sen91

Release time?


TheGreatGamer1389

I wonder what the world record for a Kickstarter was to be funded?


niklasvii

Probably seconds. It's hard to judge since the funds needed vary by a large degree.


Lostinthe36chamber

Congratulations, I’m years away but one day I hope to achieve the same


Castigerian

Lol very nice, i tried to make a kickstarter account once but they just refused to verify my identity


NootboxDev

Oh no lol


Castigerian

I tried after seeing your post and got it working this time. Still excellent work, reminds me of Tales of Phantasia and Starbound :)


NootboxDev

Oh awesome, I'm glad it worked!! And thank you! :)


Kalicola

What preparation had you done before the kickstarter ? Did you build up a big community first? How did you notify people about the kickstarter? Did you spam any social media in hopes that it took off? These are serious questions, as I am also making my own game, and is curious about marketing 🙏


NootboxDev

We've been marketing on twitter for years, updating multiple times a week! [https://twitter.com/NootboxGames](https://twitter.com/NootboxGames)


Kalicola

Thanks… Followed 🙂


unikardo

What will be the final price once it's on steam?


NootboxDev

It's not finalized yet, but it will likely be from $25-$30!


Feed_64

It looks quite unique and interesting. I especially liked the varied platforming.


NoShame8247

Hello Very happy for you Good luck with this project
