I know a person that has supported a Kickstarter game about 10 years ago. Dev is constantly Posting updates, so it's not silent, just takes a lot time. 2 years is very short
And here I'm thinking it's not far enough, considering how sparse the trailer was (and there's virtually zero additional footage on their Kickstarter page). That said, they've already raised half of their goal. Between this and Runa, it'd be cool if we ended up with a successful western Europe JRPG dev.
I certainly see the Chrono Cross and Lost Odyssey influence. Hopefully the combat pace is quite a bit quicker than the latter.
