Whoa.

The campaign absolutely blew up overnight in the last few hours!! We did expect a bit of acceleration toward the end of the campaign, but this has far exceeded our expectations. We can't thank you all enough for the overwhelming support and for making this such a successful Kickstarter campaign!

It's hard to believe it's been a whole month since we launched the campaign; what a wild ride this has been. To kick off this end-of-campaign update, let's look at all of the stretch goals that we hit in the last 12 hours:

Stretch Goals Met: 210k-240k!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Q.T., Now in Millions of Colors!
I'm sure Q.T. would be jealous of Rascal's color customization options, and now she doesn't have to be! With this goal met, we'll be able to give her the same color-picker treatment as her younger brother.

Hard Mode!
One of our core goals for this game is for it to be accessible, even to players who aren't as familiar with this genre. But we recognize that part of the thrill of a platformer is to be challenged! So we'll be introducing Hard Mode! This new difficulty will remix the levels by changing enemy positions, reducing Rascal's health, and perhaps even more!

Outfit Packs 2 & 3!
Rascal and Q.T. will now be receiving more outfits! Check them in the image previews below!

Xbox Port!
In addition to the new Outfit Packs, we'll be porting to Xbox Series! That means the game will be coming to Steam, Switch, and Xbox.

Speed Boost Mode!
If you like this game, we can bet that you like to run fast. So we'll be introducing a mode where your top run speed is even higher! Like seriously fast. We'll see what kinds of crazy speed running strategies can be afforded by this simple change.

Additional Animation!
With this goal met, we'll be able to devote more resources to animation. That means that we'll be able to increase the quantity of cutscenes and add more flavor to the game in the form of emotes, victory poses and animations, and more!

Planned Demo Updates
The campaign may be over, but we do have some additional changes planned for the free demo on Steam. This will include the addition of the backer skins for those who supported those reward tiers, as well as some general fixes and an additional aesthetic and design pass on the new multiplayer level! As well as a proper name for it. We'll be sure to keep you all posted.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

We're Just Getting Started!
While this Kickstarter campaign may be concluded, our journey is just getting started! With all of the contributions from you generous backers, we'll be able to focus our energy fully to this game's development. We'll be posting another update in the coming days to provide some additional details regarding what our next steps are. But for now, our team is going to take a short breather.

Thank you all again so much for your generous support. This game would not be possible without you, and we don't take that lightly. We count it a privilege to be able to create this game, and we're committed to making it the best game that we possibly can!

We'll be speaking to you again soon! Thank you!!

A rogue descendant of Rascal’s ancestors, and a self-made cyborg🤖, Elegance grew up on Elysia, but her dreams proved too big for the small planet🌏.

Ambitious, cunning, and greedy, she despises the imperfections that come with a simple life, and dreams of reshaping the world to bring about its ultimate potential in accordance with her distorted understanding of the old ways.😈
