Hello dear Aurionics,
Aurion started its adventure on Kickstarter on September 15, 2015. The campaign reached 53% in less than a month. Thanks a lot to all our Aurionic Backers. It will end on October 20, 2015 and we really hope it will be a success.
Aurion: Legacy of the Kori-Odan
It is a 2D Fantasy-Action-RPG which pays homage to the culture and legacy of Africa and innovates in the RPG genre. Aurion features hand-drawn and animated African-style graphics and a deep storyline that unfolds over more than 20 hours of action-packed gameplay that is filled with combat and combos. The dynamic gameplay is partially inspired by the old school Tales Of series, and focuses on 2D real-time combat sequences with narration and environments both drawing deeply from African culture, myths and lore.
The story of Aurion begins with a young prince named Enzo Kori-Odan. on the eve of his coronation and wedding day with Erine Evou. Little did he know that Ngarba Evou, his new brother-in-law, plotted to overthrow him.

A Kickstarter campaign, WHY?
During our last Greenlight campaign, there were some gamers who suggested us to launch a Kickstarter campaign in order to improve the development (quality of game, translation, etc.). After many analysis with our publisher Plug-In-Digital, we finally decide to do it. So our goals are to get funds which will go to final development of the game including updates to the Interface, beautiful new hand-drawn characters and animation, and possibly toward new hires and support for additional platforms.
Some hot stretch goals unveiled!
Two game designers Paul Bertone (design director of Halo 3 at Bungie) and Didier Chanfray (Alone in the Dark) will join the Team if we reach 75,000€.
The game could be port on PS4 if we raise 100,000€. Pledge and support us as much as you can. We need you! Thanks!
