Active Kickstarters
Speakeasy (18+) Funded: An otome set in a 1920’s jazz club. They’re in the last few days of the campaign; working towards a stretch goal for MC skin tone customization.
Of Sense and Soul (BL)
A slow burn BL set in 1870’s Victorian London. Features reserved journalist Hugo, and outgoing gentleman (as in landed gentry) Seamus. Includes a letter writing mechanic. They are currently on track to fall narrowly short short of funding.

I also saw this:
It looks so good, doesn't it? I ended up backing their kickstarter so I could buy some of their stickers.
I'm intrigued enough that I made it my first ever Kickstarter backing!
