The cited influences for the game include Lunar: Silver Star and Eternal Blue, Final Fantasy, Chrono Trigger, Shin Megami Tensei, Final Fantasy Tactics and even Silent Hill. Lucid Soul is a modern interpretation of the 16-bit JRPG, one that promises horror and a protagonist who's more like an antagonist. Minimum pledge to receive the game: $20 US - digital only Note that €10 only qualifies for a digital copy of the game, but pledging €35 (plus shipping) qualifies for a complete-in-box edition with a physical cartridge. That version is not available as a reward for this campaign though. This latest project is called The Shapeshifter and it's already been fully-funded many times over, so much so that an NES port of the game will be coming in the future. We've featured developer Dana Puch in these pages before they've made solo Game Boy games in the past and this month, they're making another. Minimum pledge to receive the game: €10 (about $13 US - digital only) Note that $19 only qualifies for a digital copy of the book backers seeking a hardcover edition must pledge at least $39 (plus shipping). I put 'book' in quotes because it looks more like a super-sized edition of Nintendo Power with illustrations and comics aplenty-not that I'm complaining! Howard has pledged to share plenty of stories from his decade of work at Nintendo for this project, and the campaign has cleared the 'Insider Insights' stretch goal which includes additional input from 'his old friends at NOA.' Gamemaster Classified is a 'tell-all book' from Howard Phillips, famed Nintendo of America employee/spokesperson/comic mascot. Minimum pledge to receive the game: $19 US - digital only Note that £2 only qualifies for a digital copy of the magazine backers seeking a print edition must pledge at least £6 (plus shipping). This campaign is for a third issue which will be focused on celebrating 25 years of Pokemon. Regardless, Ninty Fresh is a crowdfunded video game magazine about Nintendo and I applaud their efforts. Keeping in line with this recent Bob Mackey tweet, I must admit I am not a fan of -y nicknames for Japanese people or products. Minimum pledge to receive the magazine: £2 ( about $3 US - digital only) Also, in light of the ongoing pandemic, we recommend only backing crowdfunding campaigns if you feel comfortable with your own security and stability. Hasten your footsteps and visit this cafe pronto because they are operating with a tipping-only system for their soft launch until 31 January 2020.Remember when 2020 was so malevolent, there was an entire extra day in February that we had to sit through? Not the case in 2021! As such, we're back with another round of video game crowdfunding campaigns just 4 short weeks after our previous collection.Īs always, we have no insider information or financial interest in any of these projects, and no one at Retronauts has been compensated for including anything on this page. Though they offer a small menu, we will definitely be back to Lucid for their up to snuff drinks and pastries! This is a perfect drink for those who are in search of caffeine-free options. Aromatic flavours of the semi-sweet cocoa layered our tongues concomitantly with the velvety and creamy consistency, we did not want to put the cup down. On a rainy day or not, a cup of hot Chocolate (S$5) will warm your soul and soothe your heart. This mellow cup of coffee made a good pair with the Banana Bread available amongst their bakes. An antidote for sunny days indeed, the coffee had a nutty aroma with a bitter profile, hitting the right spot when in search of a good cuppa. Served in a cute glass, the Iced White (S$6) comes with two shots of espresso, cold milk and ice.

They have other in-house bakes like brownies and cakes that are made fresh daily at the open-concept kitchen situated in the cafe as well. Undoubtedly one of the best banana breads we’ve had so far.

It had the right amount of sweetness along with slight notes of savouriness from the butter. We do not need to travel to JB just for Hiap Joo Bakery anymore because Lucid’s Banana Bread (S$3.50) won our hearts with its dense and immense banana flavours. You’d definitely be able to capture some good pictures for the gram! This minimalistic cafe with mainly grey cement tones had a modern industrial design that was aesthetically pleasing with beautiful natural lighting that entered the space. Its quiet ambience and clean aesthetic completely won us over. Kickstart your day at this cafe which offers a quick caffeine fix for coffee junkies or sweet treats for dessert addicts.

If you’re on the hunt for a quiet place to work or a place for good conversations, Lucid will fit the bill perfectly. Lucid is a new addition to the cafes in Lavender that serves artisanal coffee and pastries in a comforting and cosy setting.
