The biggest takeaway from seeing this bit of news is that there is apparently a Japanese version of Kickstarter that I never knew of.
Shame that they didn't get even close to their goal, but from the sounds of it the series should have tried to make a comeback long before now, let alone trying to throw an isekai version into it. Either that or courted other audiences beyond just Japan |

Well that's a shame. Sounds like it would have been fun and I would have bought it for certain if an English version released on Steam. The only Isekai themed visual novel I read was Hatsumira: From the Future Undying from Frontwing. They're more rare than you think.

This company used to be big in the VN industry, no?

There are actually quite a few crowdfunding platforms operating out of Japan such as ReadyFor, Motion-Gallery and Makuake (who actually has an ongoing partnership with Indiegogo) - although probably the biggest one of the lot has to be Campfire. |

It's too bad, but 30 million yen feels like it was way too ambitious for something this old.

Man, I had an imported GBC cartridge version of Pia Carrot… bought a random lot of Japanese carts from eBay in the 2000s. At least it helped me learn a bit of Japanese.
 (Just in case it’s a rare or sought after game, I don’t own it any more)

Wow, fans of an ancient eroge franchise (the ones who are still alive, at least) don’t bite when offered an all-ages non-eroge that for some reason also has to be an isekai?
I’m sorry, but what were they thinking? |

Yep, was going to mention this. i've supported a campaign on Campfire before. Japan is quite big on crowdfunding. Regarding the game, I feel like I'd vaguely heard of this game before so it's a shame it didn't meet its goal. |
