Help bring Wild Season to Ouya!

Official thread is here. Locked.

Hey Guys! I'm Sharan Balani, the Founder of Quickfire Games & Creator of our next title Wild Season! We recently announced that we would be including Ouya as part of our base funding goals! and we wanted to tell you guys about it!

Wild Season is a Farming Simulation Game, inspired by the likes of Harvest Moon, Animal Crossing, Rune Factory and Thousand Arms. Although it shares many of the same concepts and mechanics, Wild Season differentiates itself in its approach to these same ideas.

The game revolves around the main character (You), suddenly coming into posession of a farm in a far away town, and the story of how you repair, build and expand it. However along the way you will experience the many distractions, including friends, enemies, love, heartbreak, marriage, winning, losing, discover some mysteries, and perhaps even discover the meaning of true evil.

We hope you guys like it! We have some really amazing stuff planned! And if we surpass our funding goals it just gets better! But we need your help to make this happen!

I backed, too! There's currently a tier where you can design a hairstyle or clothes for the main character, and it's pretty reasonably priced compared to other games with the same tier. (20 pounds or $44.)

I'm super excited to make a bifauxnen main character. :D

I love Harvest Moon and Animal Crossing. I'm all for having this game on OUYA. I'll be watching this game closely.

If I let my wife know of this game's existence... Well I'm probably gonna need a new OUYA & TV, cos I'll never see my console again.

So go on, get it on here. I need an excuse to buy another OUYA.

Does anyone know why Wild Season doesn't show up on Kicktraq? I like to obsessively monitor the projects I back and its bugging me, I can't with this one.

Even though I'm not a huge fan of the genre, this looks very high quality, and sounds just different enough from Harvest Moon that I'd be interested to give it a try. I think it would be a great benefit to the OUYA either way, and I can't help hoping it gets funded. I've brought the Kickstarter to the attention of some friends who are seriously into this type of game in the hopes that they'll back it and spread the word. I may end up chipping in a little myself.

I don't know if anyone saw but Wild Season was accepted into the Free The Games fund. So they will get extra money from Ouya Inc if they make it, and we will have some of that Ouya concolse exclusivity on this game for a while. Which is a boon for Ouya, as I know the devs had been applying for other console devkits.

Arg, I really want this game to make it! They're at just under $14K with 8 days left. (Goal of 22.5K)

I'm so anxious-- I really want it to succeed but if it does it's going to be super close. Crossing my fingers and continuously poking Wild Season related threads...

I retweeted the tweet and favorited it. Man, I hope this game reaches the goal.

Nice, the kickstarter just got a good jump after their latest update.

There's now a special edition of the game as well as a kickstarter exclusive version (add ons at 2 and 4 pounds respectively.) Special edition unlocks a new animal, a new area, and new crops. Kickstarter includes special edition, along with a "Kickstarter Creek", a special section of the dreamworld, and the option to raise a fox instead of a dog.

New T-shirt tiers as well, including the option for folks who are getting a special character in game to have their character (and love interest of their choosing) on the shirt instead of the stock MCs. They also added some more tiers allowing kickstarters to work with the company and design a custom house.

Lots of extra goodies!

Just pledged, it looks great! I really like the art style and can't wait to play it on the ouya :D I actually took a while to decide but I feel this project really deserves all the backing it can get.

Just pledged.

5,000 pounds (under 9k) with 6 days to go. What a nailbiter.

Their Kicktraq makes me think if they keep their current momentum they will make it. Im just worried that they will loose momentum christmas eve and day. I think their Kickstarter was ill timed to overlap with such a major holiday.

Of course it could also have the reverse effect, I'm pretty confident they will make it.

OUYAForum... Keep in mind for every project I'm interested in that doesn't get funded, a coffee stain appears on one of Eddie's teeth. We have to keep him sparkling, alright?! You know what you must do.

Take a look at the developer blog:

Wild Season Open Beta will be coming to Ouya soon! We’re also almost done making adjustments to our build for Ouya compatibility. So, if you have an Ouya and a KICKSTARTER BACKER, you are eligible for an Ouya code. Please email support@quickfire-games.com with your BACKER DETAILS. (For those of you who only ordered Wild Season in ONE platform, requesting an Ouya code will make that your chosen platform).
