Eliosi's Hunt’s crowdfunding campaign was released on July 28th. This challenging sci-fi game is inspired by Crash Bandicoot and Metal Slug, combining shooting and platforming.
The developer, TDZ Games, is asking for US$ 18.000 on Kickstarter, even though the game is fairly late in the development, in order to help them finish it the way it deserves and release it on February of 2017. Besides, one of the main strategies of the developers is to receive help from the community with the launch of an Early Access by the end of September, so the players can give their feedbacks and help improve the game. They prepared, among other goodies, statues, comics, posters, t-shirts and mugs as rewards for the backers.
The game has a free demo available to download via Steam.
Eliosi's Hunt will be on Kickstarter, only for PC, until August 26th and will be released for PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
