If you have yet to see it, earlier this evening I posted an article promoting two new campaigns opened by Fruitbat Factory for their second major localization project ’99 Spirits’. I encourage you to check this article out “Fruitbat Factory Create Campaigns for Upcoming Release ’99 Spirits’ on IndieGoGo and Steam Greenlight – Take a Look at the Games New Trailer” which also came with one of the first trailers to be released for the title.
In addition to the trailer and campaign news, the company released three new screenshots and quotes from Project Lead ‘Jakke Elonen’ and translator Yoshifumi Ishii. While I would have liked to have seen more screenshots released for the game, it serves as an ample teaser for what we can expect to see when it launches during Spring 2013 (Autumn 2013 in Australia).
Jakke Elonen | Project Lead at Fruitbat Factory
We truly appreciate the support of everyone interested in playing more unique Japanese PC games in English to help fund our current project and ongoing work. We are doing what we love and will continue to do so even if no funding is made available. We are doing this to gauge popular demand and to cover some of our immediate project expenses in the hopes of making a timely release possible so that we
may continue creating interesting titles in the near future.
With the currently running IndieGoGo campaign, 30% of proceeds will go to the original Japanese developer of 99 Spirits – TORaIKI, giving fans the chance to support both the localization work and developer directly.

Every independent developer faces the day they must enter the arena known as Steam Greenlight. For 99 Spirits, today is that day. Go to the game’s Greenlight page to check it out, and vote for it if you like what you see. Tell your friends. That’s all we can ask of anyone.
