The first surge reward is almost unlocked! A backer exclusive Shadows of Adam desktop background illustrated by Kim Herbst. A woman of some internet legend thanks not only to her amazing talents, but also a piece of Zelda fan art that’s gone viral on many different occasions.

Finally, we’d like to point you towards an excellent game on Kickstarter which is in its final week as well. Children of Zodiarcs is a beautiful looking tactical JRPG which is a bit of a throwback to PS1 strategy games of yore. It has major Final Fantasy Tactics flavor, is highly polished, and offers a lot of promise for anyone craving fresh content akin to the strategy games of that era.

As a reminder, if you have yet to back Shadows of Adam or have been meaning to increase your pledge and just haven’t gotten to it yet, please check out our page for the latest rewards and their availability.
