GameLight - Yatagarasu Attack on Cataclysm

IndieGoGo Campaign: Yatagarasu Attack on Cataclysm
Source: Youtube Channel NyuMedia

Yatagarasu is an indie fighting game developed by 3 former SNK / King of Fighter Staff members and has launched a funding campaign to continue working on expanding the game.  The original was set to launch on the 3DS eShop and PC, but it seems the team wants to go one step further and add new characters, update the game with new commentary, improve the graphics, and localize it in English for the rest of the world to enjoy on PC by Nyu Media.  I'm still not very convinced by the game's trailer just yet, but I do like the character designs and I would like more fighting games on PC.  The problem I have with Nyu Media right now is that the games they localize take a very long time to get onto Steam.  The game is available in Japanese Arcades only as far as I know, but is set to launch on PC for $15 when Attack on Cataclysm is done.  Their goal date is February 2014, but projects like these may take more time than that.  They are currently asking for $68,000 in funding and have made $2800+ so far with 45 days left.  I wish them the best of luck and look forward to seeing what they have in store for us.
