Zeboyd, veterans of the lo-fi RPG, have set their sights on a sci-fi espionage RPG called Cosmic Star Heroine, and to make it they’re hoping to raise $100,000. That shouldn’t be too much of a problem, as they’ve already raised over $40k. Why so popular? Well, the team are promising a game “inspired by Chrono Trigger, Phantasy Star & Suikoden.” They explain: “Alyssa L’Salle is one of the galactic government’s top agents and always manages to save the day! But when she accidentally uncovers a dark conspiracy, her own government outs her as a legendary spy and the people’s champion!” Something very similar happened to me, I have to say.

Needless to type, you can see the pitch video below and make up your own mind.(more…)
