FEB 1, 2023: KICKSTARTER FOR THE GOOD PEOPLE (NA DAOINE MAITHE) HAS ENDED!
Thank you to our 776 backers for allowing us to bring this project to life, and reach our side stories stretch goal! We hope that you love what we have in store! Stay tuned, fateful friends!
The Good People (Na Daoine Maithe) is a lore-rich and choice-driven historical fantasy visual novel inspired by Irish mythology and Celtic folklore. Play as a tenant farmer from mid-19th century Ireland, whose path becomes inexplicably entwined in fairy affairs after getting robbed by the roadside and lured into the mythic and war-torn world of Tír na nÓg: A once unified land, now divided into the Seelie and Unseelie Courts. Will you escape and return home with your stolen belongings? Or does fate have something else in mind?
Our Full Game will Feature:
Six Character Routes: There will be six character routes in total, each one exploring the individual stories of our diverse cast of Love Interests (LIs)! There are two men, two women, and two non-binary folk to choose from. Half of our cast is aspec, as well!
Secret Story Route: If you play through all six character routes, you'll unlock the secret story route! It's designed to tie up the broader narrative aspects of the game, and you can choose which character route is "canon" to your play through!
Flexible MC: Choose your preferred name and pronouns (including neo pronouns) and romance whomever you please! (We even have a stretch goal to customize MC's sprite appearance, too!)
Platonic Options: Not into romance, or don't want to romance them all? Not to worry! All routes can be played platonically.
Multiple Endings: Each route has two endings based on the health of your relationship with the LI, regardless of whether it's romantic or platonic.
English-Gaeilge Lexicon: Our game features translatable Gaeilge (Irish) words and phrases, and in the full game, translations will be voiced for ease of pronunciation!
Voice Acting: The main cast will have limited voice acting in the full game. Check our Kickstarter page periodically for voice actor reveals and samples!
Other Features (Stretch Goals): Side stories in-between route releases.

We're here with a final reminder that our Kickstarter campaign ends TONIGHT at 11:59 EST! If you were thinking of supporting our campaign, you have about three hours to do so!
Our project has been fully funded and we've met the first of our stretch goals (side stories!), but there's still time to potentially get us to our Custom MC goal!
CUSTOM MCs: MC will receive a sprite that players will be allowed to customize, influencing eye colour, hair colour, skin tone, facial features, and hairstyle. This will also impact Daonna's sprite, as well as both of their CGs, given MC and Daonna are identical.
We're currently at $30,886 USD ($41,414 CAD), and need to reach $35,000 USD to achieve the Custom MC goal. It's a fair amount of money, but if around 66 folks decided to pledge at the Captain's Keepsakes or Master's Secrets tiers (both $64 USD or $85 CAD), we'd actually have enough funding for this goal!
The Captain's Keepsakes tier will also give you some of our super cute limited merch, i.e. charms, bookmarks, and a sticker sheet! If you wanted the art & lore book from the Master's Secrets tier, you can also include it as an add-on!
Regardless of whether we hit the Custom MC sprite stretch goal or not, any little bit we receive will help us make The Good People (Na Daoine Maithe) a better game! We know that the Custom MC sprite is also a very popular goal, so we'll see if we can find some alternate way to get the funding for it if we don't make it through Kickstarter!
Save the Villainess just hit 600 followers on our Kickstarter pre-campaign page!
Enormous thanks to all the amazing players who are following us - as well as all the amazing dev friends who are supporting us. We owe you all so much... and cannot wait to dazzle you with all the secrets and surprises of our public demo!
