Pixelmage’s Hero’s Song fantasy role-playing game hits early backers in November (update)

John Smedley, former head of Sony Online Entertainment, is getting ready to ship another game. But this new game, Hero’s Song, is different because it’s coming from his year-old startup Pixelmage Games. Starting in November, the fantasy role-playing game will be available to early backers on Indiegogo.

Hero’s Song doesn’t have a specific launch date yet, but the team is putting the finishing touches on it, Smedley said in an interview with GamesBeat. The title is a 2D pixel art fantasy game where the player can customize the world and populate it with all sorts of gods and characters.
