Pixel Graphics’ side-scrolling running game ‘Reincarnation Star,’ which is being developed by the indie game team NEXT LEVEL, is drawing attention with its unique concept based on the reincarnation of companion animals.
‘Reincarnation Star,’ which is crowdfunding through Tumblbug, was developed with the goal of sharing the ‘Pet Loss Syndrome,’ such as sadness, guilt, and loss experienced by separation from a companion animal, through game content and conveying comfort.
The game contains the journey to the reincarnation planet by crossing the rainbow bridge of each stage composed of various themes through the main characters, such as dogs, cats, and hamsters. Gamers must control their characters to avoid obstacles, acquire items, and collect reincarnation stones to solve stages.
About 60% of the entire process of ‘Reincarnation Star’ has been produced, basic functions have been implemented, and additional stages and stories for each theme are in progress. In addition, the amount raised through this crowdfunding will be used for labor costs, goods production, server usage fees, store registration fees, and studio rental.
