Hello Fellow Villainesses and Villains!

This is Tanya and Emily, the two-person team creating Save the Villainess. We are excited to share a very special end-of-Kickstarter announcement with all of you!

At this point, you may have already played the 3-to-5 hour demo for Save the Villainess. If so, you already met our villainess, saved her from certain death, ran across 4 – or more?! – suspects, and learned more about the treacherous former fiancé who sent our villainess into exile. 

(To learn more about Save the Villainess, you can look at some of the amazing playthroughs of Save the Villainess created by over 150 streamers here. As a recent highlight, EpyksLion - an amazing streamer who covers a wide range of visual novels and other games - did a hilarious stream of our demo here).

Are you curious about what happens next in Save the Villainess? If so, you’re in luck. 

Near the end of our Kickstarter campaign, at specific times on August 18th, 19th, and 20th, we’ll be streaming 3 teasers of post-demo scenes from Save the Villainess. This is alpha footage that has never before been seen in public!

So if you want to see: 

🦋 Jane cross-examining Servant, only to learn unexpected new details about the mysterious House she is trapped in

🦋 A new investigation scene that leads to more flashbacks of the original Lady Jane Neville

🦋 A tea-time interrogation of Edmund and Ben

…Tune into our streams or watch our recordings of the streams on August 18th, 19th, and 20th. We may even have a few guest stars join!

(If you can’t directly watch our streams, we will share temporary video recordings of our streaming footage on our Kickstarter page. You will still be able to watch this never-before-seen alpha footage up until the end of our Kickstarter campaign on 8/21.) 

Thanks again for your interest in our animated romantic dark-comedy murder mystery. We are excited to share more of the cast and mysteries of Save the Villainess with you soon!

Are you interested in playing another otome isekai game? If so, we highly recommend checking out the amazing Antares’ Thorn for the Villain: Reincarnated as an Extra in an Otome Game?! 

Antares is a wonderful artist, writer, and developer who also created the chibi character art featured on our Kickstarter page! Thorn for the Villain is their latest game and it is an incredibly funny, charming, and meta take on the otome isekai genre. If you want to play as a hilarious and shrewd female protagonist who reincarnates into an otome game – only to realize that the villains of the story are now her potential suitors and murderers – you will love Thorn for the Villain.

Thorn for the Villain currently has a lengthy demo available. You can support its development by following Antares on Itch.io to get development updates and by buying extra rewards such as having your name in the credits, early beta access, special dialogue, or an in-game portrait or ad. If you enjoy otome isekai stories and games, please support Thorn for the Villain now!
