Lie of Caelum: Spirit, a brand-new indie JRPG inspired by PSX and Saturn games, opened its Kickstarter on 1 September, aiming to get a funding goal of $34,000. To the pleasant surprise of developer Classi5ed, JRPG fans made a party and not only broke the initial funding goal in a single day, but almost doubled the target.

At a glance, if you watch the available trailer for Lie of Caelum: Spirit, you will see several callbacks to JRPGs of yesteryear, such as Xenogears, Phantasy Star, and other sci-fi titles, which, in my book, are nothing but perks. The developer said on Twitter that these two franchises were the main inspiration for the game, so if you like them, I recommend checking out Lie of Caelum: Spirit.

For those unfamiliar with Kickstarter, the creator sets a funding amount, which theoretically would be what is needed for the project to kick off. Then, they can add some stretch goals, which are extra bonuses in case the funding amount reaches certain milestones. According to the Kickstarter deatils, the $34,000 backing will cover hiring new artists to complete assets, such as character art, pixel art, and music — which, by the way, features guest composer Motoi Sakuraba, a pretty good musician heard on many JRPGs — as well as platform fees and taxes.

Lie of Caelum: Spirit has already passed its initial funding, and we have now entered the stretch goals. Since the developer didn't set anything above the $60,000 mark, it shows they weren't expecting this resounding success. The team has already announced that they are working on Phase 2 of the stretch goals, which should be revealed soon.

The first stretch goal for Lie of Caelum: Spirit was a digital artbook for all backers. The second, third, and fourth refer to the game itself, expanding more of its features, such as more cards for a card minigame within the JRPG and adding a New Game+ system. The $60,000 stretch goal is the most interesting, though, because it guarantees a port to the Switch 2. In Phase 2, the game will receive an Xbox port according to the developer, while there is currently no word on a PlayStation release.
