This is the purest example of a talented passion project. Those special games which are developed almost entirely alone for half a decade, mostly in private, and simply look extremely impressive are almost always worth supporting. I can think of no negative examples to contrast with Pizza Tower, Cuphead, Celeste, and Hollow Knight itself following this pattern. I would give a 99% chance that this game turns out to be absolutely incredible

So stoked for this one! I’m in a discord with the devs and they’re so kind, too.

[BlueSR]

Instantly backed! looks super awesome.

[AMCoffee]

Never backed a kick starter before, but between you and all the amazing puns they have on their Facebook page, I'm sold! And given that the kick starter page only went up today and it's already 35% funded, I'm betting this'll be meeting its quota.

00:00 "If you're anything like me" you are also going crazy over the wait for Silksong

[ManateaParty]

Looks like an adorable game! I'm looking forward to following development!

[justsomeguy]

now this is how you properly make a game inspired from another game, instead of outright making a clone of said game you got inspiration from. this game looks very charming.

[treetalk_]

this seems really fun and adorable, going to add this to wishlist, thanks for the showcase, fire

[archmagusofevil]

From hearing your vague description and seeing gameplay, I was already convinced this is worth my time by the 1:30 mark. Looking forward to the release.

[lunaradept]

Thanks for shedding some light onto this one! Certainly something to keep an eye on!

[paolumouse]

I had no idea there was going to be a kickstarter for this game. I've had it on my wishlist for a while.

[Pogobro]

they sent me the preview as well, honestly I was really sad when it ended lol, I just wanted to keep playing

[martinsimon]

Just listen to 2:30 to 2:32 ... Now that is fireborn out of context

[Pixel]

I am 100% playing this once it releases

[HornetProtector]

Fireb0rn, you are very good at doing reviews for video games and it really helps me find new games I enjoy playing. Please keep doing reviews like this one.

"Im a sucker for good kids in stories, and i quickly fell in love with them"

[CJBurgandy]

I set my alarm this morning to back it as soon as it went live. I love how much work and passion the devs have put into this, and the music their composer has written for it is just gorgeous!

[grubbsgaben]

I am pretty sure that fireb0rn singlehandedly gained a TON of new players for this AMAZING looking game. Thank you fire!

[VanadiumVoxel]

2:30 That probably could've been worded better. 😂😂😂

[Xibyth]

I always love to see this genre grow, evolve, try new things. It's been a long time coming. With the switch out there I'd love to see joycons designed with a d pad specific for metroidvanias.
