Blue Omen Operation is a 2D action-command RPG with a battle system that emphasises timing and reflexes, inspired by beloved classics like the Paper Mario Series, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and even a little WarioWare.

The biggest part of Blue Omen is the role-playing aspect - as a story-driven RPG, we want to bring our own brand of bizarre to the table, with an overworld filled to the brim with unique characters and critters for the player to encounter.

Those childhood memories of purchasing a game for the art alone; slotting it in and booting it up without knowing what to expect, only to be introduced to a unique and exciting RPG world waiting to be explored - this is the type of feeling we want to recreate.

Developing that strong attachment to the unique faces you meet along the way is what Blue Omen is about.

I've been following the two lead developers behind the game for some time and have been quite excited for this game to see the light of day. As I'm sure a lot of people here are fans of Nintendo's RPGs, there's bound to be a lot of things here for people to enjoy so I figured I'd spread the word. It also takes a lot of inspiration from classic anime and GBA games in it's art style. The Kickstarter is set at a modest $15,000 and it's already picked up some traction so hopefully it'll meet it's goal without much trouble.
