A couple days agoSteven told usthatMega Mancomposer Manami Matsumae would be contributing toStarr Mazer, and that she would not be alone in that endeavor. Indeed, the huge list of composers on theStarr MazerKickstarterincludes names likeC-jeff,Danimal Cannon, the ubiquitousJake “virt” Kaufman, and a ton of others.
The soundtrack is not allStarr Mazerhas going for it. It seeks to combine two disparate genres, blending point-and-click adventure gameplay with horizontal sidescrolling shooting. According to the campaign page, it will not be broken up into distinct sections, but rather the two pieces will flow into one another. The Kickstarter page also has a healthy dose of rad animated GIFs.
Starr Mazeris seeking $160,000 in funding and has collected pledges totaling almost 10% of that in the first day. Assuming funding goes through, it should release on Linux, Mac, and Windows, with stretch goals set for console versions.
Don Thacker, designer/writer/director forStarr Mazer, will be talking to Jonathan Holmes onSup Holmesthis Sunday.
