Women of Xal II Kickstarter Imminent

KICKSTARTER PRE-LAUNCH PAGE ~ LINK

(PLEASE hit that black "Notify" button in the link. Reasons why further below. Content Warning: Earnest and frank honesty.)

It feels like Déjà vu to announce that we're going to launch Women of Xal's Kickstarter soon. Complete with new art of the characters. It was 2016 and a flood of you all came in gushing with love and support. Now we're all older and a bit more rugged, eh? But you've grown and become something far more beautiful than before. So have I, ideally! But let's get down to business. For everyone who reads this whole thing, or even just reblogs and officially follows the Kickstarter page, thank you.

So as most of you heard, we were going to shelf Women of Xal II. The debt accrued, the unprofitable returns, and risks Women of Xal II presented in both costing more and making even less made it unviable an avenue to explore. We were going to revisit the series years later. I was just starting to make my peace with that. But of course, I live in a bizarre fictional story like the rest of you. An artist came in shortly after. Ssam_reptile understood the situation and was hellbent on helping specifically us all the same. Long negotiations short, he's the reason Women of Xal II is happening at all.

He'll be doing much of the art for the promotions, CGs, special illustrations, Kickstarter art, and so~ much~ more~ But uh, look at this:

He perfectly embodied the kind of evolution I want for the sequel. Putting so much attention and care into the lore's little details and honoring Cat's character designs with utmost pride and attention. But I'm a relatively honest man: I gave him the numbers. The sales, the probability of success if we don't get a fire lit under this series, and the amount of time he's risking for this Kickstarter. He's also a sensible man, and was quite honest in his fears and reservations -- just as I was even restarting this project. But he is willing to take the risk, and believe in this project. And as scared as I remain for a Kickstarter that needs at least $25,000 to not fall into the same pitfalls as the original game, I'll also give it my all. Because I do believe that the story and quality that we can give you far outstrips these worries.

Staying upfront with you, I'm asking to indulge in a little bit of my selfishness here: Please follow the game's Kickstarter page. It'll notify you when the campaign officially launches. Show the team that we can look forward not to trepidation, but excitement when we launch that Kickstarter. Let the numbers help give us confidence that what we're doing will be seen. Reblog the excitement and show that we're just going to keep clapping back louder until we're heard. Talk to us on Discord or in my DMs and express your joys as well as anxieties about the sequel -- we want to hear everything and address you just as earnest as I always.

Tell us features you want, stories you want explored, Kickstarter rewards, anything. See what I've learned and what I haven't! You can even demand that Cat remains an artist in the game -- and you'll be happy to know that she is! She's returning as character designer, I'm still the offbeat writer, and we've got a lot more to say and show. So let's go on this journey once more, yeah? I can't wait to show you all what I've learned as both a person and a creative. Thank you for reading, and...

Welcome back to Xal.

do you think when they drew bugs, they had a bug in the studio that they called their art bug and they fed it

Not sure! Maybe it's happened, but I don't know of any time it's actually happened.

Happy Princess Tutu 22nd anniversary! Here's a picture of my two-sided Tutu itabag. You can't even see everything in the 1st picture because there's so much overlapping stuff lol. I have a smaller one with all official merch!

It's my 12 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳

I don't believe it's that old, what the heck! Not that I've been crazy active on it, but still, I wouldn't have thought I had this since 2012.
