One of gaming’s most difficult series has inspired a new Kickstarter success story

Battle Princess Madelyn passed its crowdfunding goal today, raising $159,020 to easily eclipse its $44,865 target. Battle Princess Madelyn is a retro-style 2D platformer, taking its inspiration from the classic Ghosts ‘n Goblins series.

Developer Casual Bit Games is planning to release Madelyn for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC, Vita, and Wii U.
