Even the already-strong soundtrack got an upgrade, with the jazzy tune getting remixed for the second area complete with vocals that would be right at home on a Sega racing arcade game. The town has been remodeled with a more complicated underworld area and a number of new villagers offering side-quests, the reward for completing quests has been added in the form of equipable emblems that enhance Aine’s abilities, the second of the three areas has seen a major overhaul with entire chunks of the level now moving when you hit a switch, and the area boss is all-new and much more impressive. While the action was already good in the original demo, whether you wanted to take your time walking through the levels slashing and jumping on enemies or aiming for a speed-run, the new version has quite a few additions, changes, and upgrades. The starting village is filled with quirky individuals, some with quests and others just there to be entertaining, and while you’re not guaranteed to find what they need on a single run if you go around enough it’s bound to turn up eventually. Renaine is a randomized semi-roguelike action platformer where each level is comprised of hand-built parts strung together randomly. Thankfully the game description says she’s “blessed” with this ability, avoiding the ridiculous trope of the “I just want to die” immortal, but endless rebirth doesn’t make her quest to defeat the Dragon and avenge her friend Ren any easier. Or rather, like her namesake, she can be taken down but will be continually reborn back at the start, ready to try again. Renaine is an 8-bit 2D platformer about an immortal knight, Aine, trying to avenge her friend Ren by killing a dragon. Again and again until the Dragon is slain.
Aine, the Phoenix Knight, is tasked by fate to destroy the legendary Dragon. The combination of efforts (plus a spot on Kickstarter’s front page) has paid off, with Renaine having blown past its goal in three days and now being just a tiny bit shy of the original campaign’s target.Īine is the Phoenix Knight, and she can’t die. Renaine is a game about overcoming failure. The game launched on April 4 with a much lower goal than the original campaign and Octosoft was at PAX East with a booth showcasing the new demo and pushing the Kickstarter campaign. Renaine’s first run at Kickstarter came up short but a lot of work and a second attempt later has seen much better results. Getting it right the first time is the best and least stressful outcome, of course, but the laws of good narrative can be jerks. To find out more, or if you’d like to become a part of FILM Ferrania’s renaissance, head over to the FILM Ferrania Kickstarter and have your credit cards handy.Second chances are the most dramatically pleasing chances. The Kickstarter goal is $250,000, and after launching earlier this same day they’ve already raised over $30,000! This is actually its second Kickstarter attempt its first campaign. The batch Kickstarter backers get will be the very first batch of film, made with the equipment they currently have on hand while they’re rescuing and setting up the big equipment mentioned above. Renaine is currently on Kickstarter, where it's already raised 9,174 of its 5,000 goal with 25 days left in its campaign.
Pledge amounts range from $25 for one of the first 500 rolls of Ferrania 35mm film (obviously limited to the first 500 backers to pick this pledge), $35 for a roll of 35mm and a roll of 120, $40 for two rolls of either 35mm or 120, and so on and so forth until you reach the filmmaker packs of Super 8 and 16mm film. And so they need help raising enough money to ‘rescue’ the industrial machines affectionately named ‘Big Boy,’ ‘Walter’ and ‘Trixie.’ These three machines - or at least slimmed down versions of them - would allow FILM Ferrania to meet the demand of the current analog market without charging exorbitant amounts per roll.
