Shantae: Half-Genie Hero, a new title in the Shantae series, has been announced as WayForward's previously-teased Kickstarter project.
The game, set to take place after the events of the upcoming 3DS title Shantae and the Pirate's Curse, will feature a completely new HD art style. Should the project be funded, Half-Genie Hero will launch on all current and next gen systems, including Wii U, Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS4, PS3 and Steam.
During the first day of the campaign and at the time of this writing, the Kickstarter has reached $83,660 of its initial funding goal of $400,000. Backer rewards include collector's edition packs featuring digital downloads of the game, lenticular motion posters, gold coins, t-shirts, art books and the opportunity to hang out with the WayForward development team during the game's wrap-up party.
The campaign ends on Friday, October 4.
Yeah, this really is the worst possible time to launch a gaming Kickstarter.doesn't help that pirates curse is coming out on the starboard side to confuse people

Is shantae even that good?
Wayforward just gave the mp3 to the theme "Dance in the Darkness" for free (not sure if it was just for people who pledged).
I will not back this unless there's a 3DS version. Or Vita. Either or.Vita was just added to the list of platforms. It's not a stretch goal. Wayforward just added it to the original goal as they're porting their engine to Vita as part of their "work for hire" business (not sure exactly what that part means). That means all one of you with a Vita who wanted this game on the Vita and refused to pledge until that happened (e.g. just insano) can now support the game!
