Update #10: Three Days Left!
over 2 years ago – Mon, Dec 04, 2023 at 01:36:38 PM

Hello everyone! We hope you are doing well. To start the week on the right foot, we want to share some exclusive content with our lovely community.

Last week, we announced the La Sombra figure as an add-on option for backers of selected tiers. We shared a prototype with you in a previous update, but you didn’t get to see more pictures. Therefore, we’d like to share a little sneak peek with you all to keep the excitement going! 

Don’t miss out on this limited-edition reward, and include it as an add-on now!

Update #9: Fifth Stretch Goal Reached
over 2 years ago – Sat, Dec 02, 2023 at 07:35:20 PM

Hello everyone! We hope you’re all doing fantastic. The humility and endless gratefulness from the team continue during the weekend, and we’re one step closer to ending the campaign. And what a wonderful way to do so by reaching our fifth stretch goal! 

Thanks to your support, the game will now feature a couple of 8-bit music tracks as variants from the OST. If you want to preview some of what’s to come, listen to this brand-new track on our SoundCloud: Mariachi Ninja

We hope this sets an exciting mood for a final revelation; with the campaign only a few days away from ending, it’s time to unveil our sixth stretch goal. It is only fitting that after all the trials and tough decisions Pablo will be forced to make, he can finally confront his demons in an epic grand finale. Therefore, we’d love to have an expanded final area with tougher challenges, more levels, and higher stakes.

Let’s work together and give a final push to end this first chapter on an epic note!

Update #8: A Proper Introduction
over 2 years ago – Fri, Dec 01, 2023 at 05:47:19 PM

Hello everyone! We hope you’re doing well. As the campaign is close to an end, we want to complete this week with one important update, as today is a revelation date.

In Santa Mascota’s cemetery, an otherworldly entity has made her presence known. She’s elegant, mysterious, and the full embodiment of the Mexican afterlife. And now, for the first time, the people in this town shall know her for her true name: Madre Catrina.

Never before has she revealed her real identity, but seeing Pablo’s adventure so close to the beginning, the dark goddess no longer wishes to remain in the shadows. Santa Mascota will know her name as the assertion of her holy mission – and her taste for fiery drinks.

Expect more news from Madre Catrina very soon!

Update #6: Fourth Stretch Goal Reached!
over 2 years ago – Tue, Nov 28, 2023 at 11:20:29 AM

Hello everyone! We’re back here with exciting news to close this month on the right foot. You know that your faith in Mariachi Legends is the sole reason the campaign has been as successful as it has been so far, and naturally, it keeps paying off, so much so that we have reached a new milestone on Kickstarter.

The game will now feature bonus areas and collectables!

These exciting new additions will certainly enhance Santa Mascota’s exploration and something to look forward to for all of the achievement collectors out there!

But there are more ways in which the game could enrich your experience. Our new upcoming milestone will feature an alternate 8-bit version of some tracks for specific areas or moments in Pablo’s journey. Let’s keep the game’s eclectic vibe and work to get that fifth stretch goal!

If you like Mariachi Legends and would like to continue to support our campaign in its last eight days, we’d be beyond grateful if you could share our project so Pablo’s tale can reach more people!

We can’t emphasize enough how all of us devs feel humbled and delighted to see our community grow with each day and the game with it.

Don’t forget to keep up with our socials to stay updated on our progress!
