Save the Villainess Heads Towards Our Third Stretch Goal & More on Jane Neville, Reluctant Villainess!
Hello fellow villains and villainesses!
This is Tanya and Emily, the villainesses behind Save the Villainess! We thank you again for your interest and your support for our game.
We’re pleased that so many of our supporters are having fun with this adventure! If you want some additional servings of enjoyment, you can see playthroughs of the demo on our Youtube streams playlist for Save the Villainess, as well as the Twitch archive of short clips and full-sized stream videos of Save the Villainess.
We are grateful to the over one hundred streamers who have played the game so far! You can also play the free demo for yourself on Steam (Windows) and Itch.io (Windows/Mac).
We’re still heading toward our third stretch goal of commissioning extra poses for our main characters! This will allow us to stage even more dynamic scenes between our characters, including additional investigative scenes and tender romantic scenes.
We hope to hit the goal of more character poses at $35,000 USD. Currently, we’re about $3,500 USD away, so if you’re following us, please help us spread the word about our game!

Interested in learning more about our main character, the reluctant villainess Jane Neville? We’re excited to share more about her… starting with a video of her introducing herself!
Jane is our loving tribute to the long line of quirky, funny, and lovable villainess characters from villainess comedies like Beware the Villainess, My Next Life as a Villainess, and Tearmoon Empire.
She is also inspired by a number of historical villainesses. Her first and last name come from several of the more famous ones! The brilliant tinycandle asked if our Jane was inspired by Lady Jane Grey, the famous Nine Day Queen who only “ruled” England for nine days before being dethroned, convicted of treason, and beheaded. Our Jane’s name and plight is partially inspired by this doomed queen.
Jane’s last name, Neville, is derived from another historical villainess who also famously met a tragic end. Can you guess who inspired her last name?

Finally, we want to give a shout-out to our fellow developers, LocaGames, who are kickstarting their Dark Fantasy × Suspense otome game, Volontés! Volontés is an otome game of magic and suspense where the main character, having lost everything in a great tragedy, must find her way in life. It features elements of suspense, thrilling choices, and spicy/mature love stories.
By supporting Volontés on Kickstarter with your pledge, you can help Loca Games implement full voice acting (including with popular Japanese VAs), English text localization, additional CGs, and more background art. Please go to their Kickstarter and support them if you are interested in their great project!
