Campaign UPDATE: we reached the campaign goal! Now on to the Stretch Goals!!!

THANK YOU!

Who exactly are we?

Hello, world!

Well we finally came to IndieGoGo after months of "Is it the right thing to do?"
Let's cut the chase and introduce ourselves: we are a smaaall company located in Japan (Osaka, to be precise) and we make games (mostly...but more on that later...please do not stop reading ;_; )

Still reading? Good!

We have always wanted to do games in our lives and that became our job (why didn't we become doctors? WHY??!?!?!?).
We played games from the Atari 2600 onwards and that has always been our biggest, most beloved passion....and now we want to give some of that to you all.

We came to IndieGoGo to make our project come to life, in the hope that we can bring something new, fresh and funny to play to every game lover (and not) out there :D

What exactly are we.....doing?

Good question!
We are doing a new kind of game....a mix between a golf game (yes, you read it correctly...GOLF) and an RPG.
So you might be wondering...

Have you ever played a golf game? Well...we did. And what bothered us the most was seeing amazing courses, amazing surroundings and...not being able to see any of it.
It was just a shot, being teleported to the ball's location over and over...we wanted to explore and see...THINGS!

And that is why one night after one beer too many we came up with the crazy idea of making the FIRST (yep.) open-world golf RPG game.
And it will be available for iOS, Android, PC and Mac.

Excited? Well..WE ARE!!!

What exactly is RPGolf?

As previously said and as the name suggests, RPGolf is an open-world-golf-roleplaygame.
But it's not all. We took particular care to make sure that  the two genres are not just something slapped together to make some "innovative" game.

We are taking particular care into mixing the aspects of both games together to give you a unique, fulfilling and incredible experience :)

You want an example? Of course!
Well for starters...you will have to walk to your ball. No more "teleporting" and finally some healthy walks immersed in nature and surrounded by...monsters. And you will have to fight them if you want to free your path and become stronger. Because by becoming stronger not only your level will go up, but also you will make more damage while fighting and you will shoot farther while playing golf!
Of course all the main stats of your character will affect both aspects of the game, so that you will have to decide how to power up your character depending on your gameplay style.

What exactly are you not telling us?

Well, nothing in particular but we can surely tell you more about the game!

• 9 (or 18? help ussss!) hole open-world map featuring different environments.

• Character will grow as more experience is gained. Every stat will influence both golf and RPG aspects of the game.

• Handicap System: to increase replayability, the HCP of the player will be recorded play after play. Lower HCP levels will unlock areas in the game and give you access to unique quests, features and items!
  

• Club house, practice field, shops and many other buildings to explore

• Clubs “forging” system: grip, head and shaft, combine them in different ways when visiting workshops around the world to create the "ultimate club"!
  

• Multiplayer mode* (see below)
  

Like what you read? Then go on!

What exactly are we paying for?

Artworks. The artist that works with us already owns our houses, laptops, souls and any material possession we have.
Also we need to eat while we work on the game (or we will starve and there is no way we can complete RPGolf. And that would be sad...no?), and let's not forget about our amazing soundtrack! (we will soon post a preview in the updates!)

With your help we can work full time on RPGolf without having to work on other projects to "survive" ourselves.

We want to develop this game more than anything, and with your help we can really make it happen!

What exactly are the STRETCH GOALS?

We are glad you asked!
here is what we plan to do if we reach enough funding:

25.000 15.000 USD: WE MADE more than we expected...lol! And to celebrate this goal we will make the game a full 18 holes course. Yep, instead of 9 holes you will get a fully featured golf club. More monsters, bosses and more anything will double the fun!

50.000 40.000 USD: Class system. Wizard, warrior or thief. Choose your path. Unique skills, weapons, and clothes will make you want to play the game over and over just to enjoy all three different styles!

75.000 65.000 USD: Multiplayer. Yes you will be able to play online and challenge all other players around the globe in an unique game! Fight the monsters or wait for the others to do it? Focus on the golfing? You choose!

What exactly are the risks?

Like every other project in the world there will be problems. But that's only part of the fun, right?
The game is already in development, the core mechanic of the game is there, what we need is the "stability" and reassurance to really put our full time into this and complete it.
And you have our word that we will make the impossible and more to deliver what we promise here!!!

What exactly can I do to help?

Well...if you are still reading, why not contribute to the campaign? (big grin :D)
If you cannot or simply do not like games at all, don't worry...we love you anyway <3. But please help us spread the word and share this project with all your friends on Facebook, Twitter, whateverisyourfavouritesocialnetwork!

And...well...thanks for reading until the end!
