Bug Fables is an Adventure RPG following Vi, Kabbu, and Leif as they search Bugaria for The Everlasting Sapling, a treasure said to grant immortality.

You can get a taste of what's in store by downloading and playing the free demo here, which covers the prologue of the game - alongside a few extra side quests!

With your help in backing this campaign, we will be able to create an even bigger game than the demo!

Bug Fables is planned to feature:

- 6 chapters of story following the heroes across Bugaria!

- Many unique areas, including: The Ant Kingdom, the treacherous Snakemouth Den, the picturesque Golden Hills, The Lost Sands, and Bee's home, the Bee Kingdom!

- A vast overworld that transitions into turn-based combat! Use Bee's Beemerang, Moth's ice magic, or Beetle's horn to defend yourself from foes!

- Action commands which can make attacks more effective, or block enemy attacks!

- A cooking system to turn ingredients into items that can help you in battle!

- A tattle system that lets you hear your party interact with each other as they discover all the secrets Bugaria has in store!

In Bug Fables, you will command an Ant Queen approved exploration team! Even though its members clash at times, they work together to clear puzzles, defeat strong enemies and help the general bug populace! 

"Look, I'm worth like four bees, alright!?"

Vi comes from the hive resting at the top of the largest tree in Bugaria - the Bee Kingdom. Easy to anger, and quick to jump at the chance for riches, Vi is a crafty, sassy, talented explorer! She can use her Beemerang to reach items out of reach, or hit switches!

"I have a promise I must fulfill. And so, I wish to explore."

Kabbu comes from the Northern Continent, neighbouring Bugaria. Drawn by the grandiose legends of the land, Kabbu seeks to unearth every artifact - and make sure none go missing looking for them again. Level headed, altruistic and a bit self-conscious, Kabbu looks out for his team the most. With his Horn, he can cut down bushes or push rocks to open a path!

"Even if they seem like obstacles, we can exploit them for our own benefit."

Leif is a resident of the Ant Kingdom, who met up with Vi and Kabbu during their expedition in Snakemouth Den. Confident and unfazed by almost anything (except delicious food and cute things). Leif doesn't have much to say, but makes sure to do the job efficiently. With the Freeze ability, Leif can encase water or enemies in blocks of ice! Push them around to reach new heights! (Or just freeze that enemy you don't wish to fight!)

Bug Fables features team based, turn based combat with a few twists!​

• Action Commands: Attacks can be made more effective by performing action commands correctly! You can also block enemy attacks!
• Weakness System: Each of your party members is more effective against certain enemies. Carefully plan your moves to finish battles quickly!
• Turn Relay: Pass turns along teammates to exploit enemy weaknesses!
• Front Bonus: The bug in front will get +1 attack, but will be focused more often by enemies!
• Medal System: Equipments obtained while exploring can unlock extra skills, change stats, and even make the game more difficult!

Don't forget, you can always try the demo out here!

Márcio Cleiton is the programmer and animator for Bug Fables. The captain of this exploration team, he's an avid fan of RPGs like Paper Mario and has been itching to create one for more than a decade!

José Fernando Gracia is the writer, designer and concept artist for Bug Fables. Ever since he spent months wandering about the worlds of Super Mario RPG, Final Fantasy VI and the like, he knew he wanted to write one of his own!

Tristan Alric is the talented teammate in charge of Bug Fables' music. The fact that the first boss' theme is named "They Call Him Spuder" is entirely his fault.

Allison has been helping us with some character designs! Most notably, she designed Mothiva and Zasp!

Poppy De Raad  helps give the game a polished coat of paint with her amazing work on the icons for items, recipes, and badges! She also sometimes helps out with props for the 3D maps!

Stefan Moser ties the whole thing together with his work on sound effects for the game!

The team posts through our official Twitter, too!

Our team has been working on Bug Fables for more than a year and slowly growing to tackle aspects we couldn't by ourselves. However, this growth comes with a cost - one that has been funded out of our pocket throughout 2017.

With the funding recouped from this campaign, we hope to cover some of the major upfront costs that would allow us to pay for the game's sound and some external artwork.. There were also other legal costs such as opening a company, applying to Steam, and etc. Indiegogo takes a non-negligible share of the raised money as well, which we needed to account for.

The money that remains serves as a safety net for our team to manage to work on the game while doing part-time, rather than transitioning to full time jobs and only working on the weekends!

We have a solid, clear vision for the game. This includes the main story, all of the sidequests, optional areas, the achievements and the like. We've budgeted for all this in the main goal, so we don't feel the need to add any stretch goals.

Any extra money we raise through the campaign will be used both to keep the development team well paid, and to seize any opportunities that arise in the future that may require money (such as ports)!

This campaign is only thanks to you, the backers. And to the community that has stuck with us through thick and thin - all the way back to the first version of the game! 

It has been an amazing experience working on this game and seeing more and more people get interested in the game. Regardless of what happens, we just all want to thank you for everything!

Every project has risks, and this expedition is no exception.

Unforeseen technical issues could compromise the project, although we have made sure to have almost all of our core systems already working and presented in the demo.

There is always a real possibility of members of our small team getting injured or falling seriously ill, which would delay the project. 

Thankfully, our rewards are all digital, so there is a negligible risk in fulfilling backer rewards. 

The biggest challenge in finishing the game will be the great amount of content left to make - we are looking at about 8 times the length of the current demo. However, we've used the experience from working in this demo to calculate the workload and time required, and we're confident we'll be able to deliver the game in 2019 as planned.

(If everything else fails, there's always work at the Ant Mines!)
