Hi everyone! Today is a special day especially for the theme of romance... so today's update is all about that topic!
Valentine's feature: Character cards!
As you may have guessed, today's update is a special feature dedicated to all the bachelors and bachelorettes in Ova Magica! Who will catch your fancy as you explore Clover Town? Is your type strong and straight forward, or a jokester who lives life on the wind? Come and meet them all today! Remember, that no matter how you to choose to create your own character, you can date anybody you choose.
Over the next few updates we will also have some more in-depth teasers and features about specific characters so please look forward to those!
Reward highlight: Valentine's Special
Fitting the occasion there is also a special reward for Ova Magica available that we want to highlight: the Valentine's Special! With this reward, you can feature yourself and a loved one in the game with your own personalised, custom NPCs. If the two of you love cute things and/or want to make a special gesture to show the world how much you love them then this is a perfect reward for you both!
A Valentine's treat!
Game Shoutout: Coral Island
Today I have something very special for the farming fans among you! I am super hyped about Coral Island and can't wait to play it myself!
"Coral Island is a re-imagined farm sim game inspired by classics. Grow crops, nurture animals, and befriend the islanders. Decide whether to revitalize not only the town but also the surrounding coral reefs."
"Promising to keep intact what makes classic farm sim games fun, Coral Island aims to modernize and make the experience more inclusive. We feature a large cast of diverse characters and weave environmental awareness into the core game loop — all the while keeping it a wholesome good time."
Actually, only three blobs can accompany you in the game, but somehow it looks totally funny when there are several of them :-P
Reward Showcase: Golden Enamel Pins
Carry the cute blobs of the world of Ova Magica with you wherever you go! These charming enamel pins, featuring 3 of Ova Magica's starter blobs, will make the perfect decoration on your favorite jumper, shirt, or bag. Available in 3 designs. You can add them to your reward as addon!
Shown objects are prototypes and examples. The final product design is subject to change.
We have created more designs of enamel pins that unfortunately didn't make it into the Kickstarter campaign. Are you interested in one of these pins or is there another blob you would like to see?
These pins did not make it into the Kickstarter campaign...
"Pipe Dream is a slice of life visual novel that follows Robin as she takes her first steps into college and escapes the shadow of her overbearing mother. Unlike many other dating sims the game doesn't just end when the characters get together, but also explores the complexities of how the relationship develops afterwards. With 6 different love interests to pursue and over 40 unlockable illustrations, there's plenty to discover. Experience college life, meet new people, text friends, and help Robin follow her dreams... but be careful, not everyone has her best interests at heart!"

No big news today. Nevertheless, I have a short update for you♥!
Bachelor Introduction: Garnet!
Today I introduce you to Garnet! She is a fun-loving fisherman. Her biggest dream is to open a beach restaurant with her brother Saphir. However, they lack the courage and the means to do so. Maybe a newcomer in town can help out a little?
Today I have something great for the farming fans among you! I myself am a big fan of this genre and ask you to take a look at Bountful Life:)!
"Bountiful Life is the next step in Farming & Life Simulator gaming. You've been tasked with the responsibility of taking over an abandoned rinky-dink farm. Maintain a source of income, create wholesome relationships with your friends and family, and discover yourself within Jubilee Village. Your time in Jubilee revolves around the three core aspects of life; your work, your friends and family, and your connection with the world."
Free Reward funded and New Stretch Goal Reveal!

Hi everyone! I wish you a happy start to the week and also wishes to take care of yourself because currently it is very chilly and snowy in many places! Please don't slip! Just a few hours we passed the 150,000 mark which means we can celebrate the addition of a new free reward for all backers, the Blob Encyclopedia! With that it also means it's time to reveal the next goal too! Thank you for all your support once again!
The new stretch goal is one that I'm very enthusiastic for and I think you will like a lot! This will be a special photo mode added to the game! This will add some new in-game items related to photography like a camera and also importantly a "photo mode" you can activate. When you go into photo mode, you can pose with your blobs and take special mementos that you can then have printed in Clover Town to decorate your house with. Also around the world will be added some special photo booths and photo cutout boards/photo stand-ins where you can take extra special pictures in different styles of staged scenes and funny poses! Maybe you remember when you were younger and visited places like the theme park/fair or beach you will know what kind of things I am talking about! Will you be able to find them all? What memories will you create?
"Pine is a story-driven game about loss and letting go, told from the perspective of a grieving woodworker. A blend of illustration, animation, music, and sound, Pine tells its story wordlessly through interactions that pull you into the woodworker's experience as he struggles to hold on to his past."
PINE is an artistic work that has an amazing aesthetic and is made from the heart with a deep meaning to the creator of the project himself. A blend of a video game and graphic novel, PINE blends its thoughtful themes with the experience creator Tom Booth has from illustrating wonderful children's books. It really deserves your support so please check it out!
