Zeichi Games, a Mexican game studio, has initiated a Kickstarter campaign to fund their latest creation, “Cosmo Knight ZiON,” for Game Boy Color. The game promises an action-packed adventure where players take on the role of ZiON, a courageous hero equipped with cosmic armor by Cosmodroid Zack, who aims to conquer Earth.
Drawing inspiration from “Saint Seiya,” Zeichi aims to deliver a visually stunning game pushing the Game Boy Color‘s limits, accompanied by an immersive soundtrack. The game features five expansive stages with intricate levels and challenging bosses, along with power-ups, secret paths, and collectibles for additional depth. Zeichi is seeking to raise 500,000 Mexican Pesos (approximately $30,000 USD) to bring this interstellar vision to life.
The Kickstarter page for the game announces that it has entered the beta phase with core concepts established. The team is seeking assistance from backers to refine details, introduce new ideas, secure commissions, and conduct thorough testing to prepare for the final release and cover physical production costs.
The game is planned to launch in both Spanish and English, with potential for additional languages in the future. Stretch goals for the campaign include digital releases on platforms like Steam, Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch. The team also aims to provide physical versions for all backers, drawing on their experience from a previous project to ensure high quality materials and manufacturing standards.
We expect the game to come out in 2024.
