The new decade brings forth many crowdfunding opportunities and today we have Kosmos Connections. A two-in-one visual novel from the folks at Thetau Games. To clarify, this is the team’s first game. It’s reasonable to doubt a studio on their first rodeo. However, across the page, you will see fascinating notes on the team’s perspective and development notes. The transparency goes a long way, and looking at the project itself there’s a lot to love. Before you invest, a 16,000+ word demo is available right now. Don’t just take my word for it, try it for yourself and see the outstanding promise of this project. The team hopes to raise $12,500 in the next 34 days. In addition, you may secure a digital copy for just $15. If they go past it, goals such as an opening movie and bonus story are in place. We wish the team a fruitful campaign!

The Kosmos Connections #kickstarter is live! I hope we're able to get this game funded! There are also some early bird and OC cameo slots open, but they're very limited. <3 #vnlink #vndev #indiegame https://t.co/oRqhJzbyYA pic.twitter.com/f7qaoqZbhX

So what the heck is Kosmos Connections about?

Kosmos Connections places you in the shoes of Adelfos (or whatever you choose to name him) during his last week of winter vacation as he visits his hometown of Kosmos after departing eight years ago. During his absence, Adelfos’ best friend, Tau Theta, has created her own visual novel by the name of Uplink Alethia. However, as Adelfos and his sister Runia play more and more of this game, the more Tau’s intentions behind its creation are called into question.

Will you be able to connect with those in the town of Kosmos and find the deeper truths within Uplink Alethia, or will you instead choose to remain with the one who you favor, taking in this world at its face value?
