We're releasing our update a little earlier today to time it with the start of our Live Stream on Twitch, which is on right now.

Live Stream: https://www.twitch.tv/6eyesstudio

Thanks again for the continued support and let's get this done in these last 72 hours everyone! :)

Another Awesome Project

If you haven't already, you should check out Sacred Fire, a psychological RPG about romance, revenge and loyalty.

 

The game looks quite intriguing and different! It’s a tactical choice-driven RPG where your succeed by understanding the psychology of the characters. We love what we've seen so far, with its storytelling and intricate characters.

"You must earn your right to lead through self-control, willpower, and influence. The choice is yours: you can embrace revenge or fight for a better world."

After a successful Kickstarter in April, their team have launched an ongoing late backing Indiegogo campaign. Check it out right HERE.

Twitch Live Stream on Friday 11am-2pm EST! And new Social Goal Reached!
over 6 years ago – Thu, Oct 26, 2017 at 09:14:14 PM

Hello everyone!

We're heading into the critical last 48 hours fairly soon (Saturday at 2:30pm will mark the start of those last 48 hours!) and we're currently just past 75% funded.

We've had awesome support in the past few days from the fans and the pace has been picking up! It's definitely doable and we're confident we're going to make it with everyone's support, so please spread the word as much as you can! :)

Speaking of which, we just reached our 8th social goal this morning and we're happy to announce another social reward!

We'll be adding a new hat for your characters to use and just like with the previous reward, we'll be sending a survey at the end of the campaign with a few options so you guys can decide which hat we'll be making! Also feel free to post in the comments any ideas you have for the hats, so we can make sure to include the popular ones in the survey options later!

Twitch Live Stream

Tomorrow between 11am and 2pm EST, we'll be having a live stream with our artist. She'll be working on creating the sprite for the Blardger monster we announced yesterday!

While she's working on it, I'll be answering any questions you guys have in the twitch chat and our artist will be answering anything that's "too artsy for me to answer properly" ^^

Here's the link to our (freshly created) twitch channel: https://go.twitch.tv/6eyesstudio

There are 4 days left at this point, let's get this done! :)

Thanks!

New Monster Concept Art & New Music!
over 6 years ago – Wed, Oct 25, 2017 at 03:34:32 PM

First, we're happy to report we're now past 70% funded, with nearly 800 backers, which is a decent spot to be in entering our last week!

It's definitely not "in the bag" by any means though, and it'll be a close one probably! Any help you can provide in spreading the word is going to be very useful in ensuring success!

Thanks again for all the support so far guys! :)

We'd also like to report that all 2 of our Arbiter Hero tiers are now gone, and we're very excited to be working with our fantastic backers in creating 2 awesome hero classes! :) We're also out of Arbiter Portrayer tiers, even after we increased the amount by 10, so you can expect a lot of awesome portraits to be added to the game!

New Monster Concept Art

We've been working on a new monster to enter our lineup, the Blardger.

This is a monster that our artist had designed back we when we used to work on Black Sigil 2 (a title for the NDS we worked on together when we worked for Studio Archcraft, some years ago), but since the studio closed its doors, the poor Blardger never got his time to shine. Here's the original sprite our new concept art is based on (note: we own all the rights to leftover assets from Studio Archcraft):

Using that sprite, our concept artist created this first rendition:

Which got refined to the final sketch:

We don't have the in-game sprite for the Blardger yet though, and it'll probably take a few weeks to get that done, so stay tuned!

New Music

Our composer, Jan Morgenstern, has been busy creating more music for the game. Here's his latest battle music theme, which should be used in the opener battle of the game:

Other Fun Kickstarter Projects!

Today, we have 2 projects we'd like to bring to your attention!

First, Summoners Fate, a fast paced tactical RPG bundled with some card collecting goodness! They launched 2 days ago and are already over 58% funded!

They're boasting a fun and unique art style and some fast paced battle: should be quite exciting! Check it out right HERE.

Next, you might want to check out Terrain of Magical Expertise (TOME), a turn-based RPG inspired by the hit webseries. They're already fully funded and are working on unlocking some more stretch goals!

Check out their project right HERE.

Add-Ons & Portraits.
over 6 years ago – Mon, Oct 23, 2017 at 07:14:19 PM

With everyone's help, we've cleared the 65% funded mark and the campaign is doing well, if a bit of a closer call than we'd like! BackerTracker is prognosticating success with a somewhat slim margin.

Anyone that could give us a hand spreading the word on gaming sites, blogs, youtube, social media or just to their friends, we would be very grateful. We could definitely use your support to get this done with a more comfortable margin! :)

Speaking of which, some of the Social Goals are pretty close to completed! The next social reward is a new and exciting headwear for your units, so keep an eye out for that!

Add-Ons

If you've been wanting to fine tune your pledge to receive extra rewards (such as another copy of the game for example), you can now do so!

Simply click the Manage your pledge button near the top of the page and then increase your pledge in the Pledge Amount box to represent your new total (do not change your pledge tier, just the pledge amount). Just tally the price of your tier with any of the extra rewards you want from this list:

• Additional copy of the game (on any of the platforms supported at launch): $20 per copy.
• Soundtrack of the game: $10
• Closed Beta & Discord access: $10

We've partnered with BackerKit to make handling the add-ons as smooth as possible and we'll be sending a survey after the end of the campaign to know exactly which add-ons you selected.

Portraits

Today we'd like to show a little medley of all the many portrait options available in the game. We still have over 30 more portraits coming in after the campaign from all the Arbiter Portrayer tiers and above too!

Another Awesome Project

Today we'd like to give a shout-out to Ash of Gods!

Ash of Gods is a turn-based RPG mixed with visual novel elements, set in a dark fantasy world and heavily inspired by The Banner Saga series. They successfully finished their Kickstarter campaign several months ago, but there's actually still time to get the game as well as all the fancy rewards with late backing on their PledgeManager page:

https://aurumdust.pledgestage.com/projects/ash-of-gods/participate/

The developers already have a playable build of Ash of Gods and just started closed testing of the multiplayer PvP mode for backers. You can join them and try Ash of Gods yourself.

Revealing story character Yates and last day of the AMA.
over 6 years ago – Sat, Oct 21, 2017 at 05:57:07 PM

Quick reminder that it's the last day for our AMA on AMAFeed. Feel free to drop by and quiz us! HERE!

Today we're revealing another story character: Yates, a physician supplementing his healing arts with a touch of necromancy: an ethical combination to be certain!

Yates will be sporting his own special class.

And here's the concept art that lead to his final rendition:

We hope everyone's enjoying their weekend so far! :)
