Look, let's be honest, it is not every day a hand-drawn monster-catching RPG smashes its crowdfunding goal in just three hours. Developed by Enthariel Games, The Sky Project: Land of Noris has done exactly that on Kickstarter, already breezing past its first two stretch goals. The team is now setting sights on a third milestone, which promises extra side quests and over 20 fresh artifact contents. You can back the Kickstarter campaign until November 12, if you fancy getting involved.

The Sky Project: Land of Noris leans into a permadeath system for its monster-catching mechanics. Whenever a Nori monster's health hits zero, it is gone for good. That brutal twist gives every single battle real weight, because once a Nori falls, there is no bringing it back.

You will get to explore four distinct regions packed with hidden areas and secret bosses. There are over 200 Nori monsters to collect, train, and evolve along the way. Battles play out in a brisk 3-on-3 turn-based format, keeping you on your toes.

After blazing past the initial funding target, Enthariel Games quickly ticked off the first and second stretch goals. The developers are currently pouring energy into hitting that third target, which will bundle in extra side quests and more than 20 artifacts to shake up the gameplay experience.
