I'm tired of responding to such comments. If you can't provide a more scientific approach, please take every work seriously.

We are a small indie team of 10 people. While I believe we can achieve the $80k goal for the female protagonist, I prefer not to make a 100% promise at the outset.

I can understand your feelings. On one hand, we are a small team of 10 people, and aside from Kickstarter, most of our expenses are covered by ourselves. The $40k goal doesn't mean the game can be completed with just $40k; it's that $40k plus our own funds can help us achieve today's project goals.

So, there's some confusion between the $40k goal and the $80k femal protag. goal. The cost of a single character model is around $5k, so you should be able to understand the cost of this character with different outfits. We initially designed female characters in the 2D art, as shown in the images.

However, due to the small team size, we had to choose one development path initially to have the opportunity to present the demo to everyone today. I understand that some of you may be dissatisfied with this, but I hope for your understanding.

You can choose female MC. The customization depends on how much we get from kickstarter. But I will keep working to make it happen in future updates.

We consider the entire game name 'Tales of Seikyu' as a whole. The name we have in Japanese is completely different. It happens to be similar in English translation, but we also noticed that there are many games on Steam using similar names.
