A new indie just launched on Kickstarter has all the vibes of a Studio Ghibli film and the mechanics of all your favorite cozy games.
Sally, a cosy life sim, has just launched on the crowdfunding platform Kickstarter (opens in new tab) and it's already racking up pledges due to how magical it looks. If you couldn't tell from the game's enchanting visuals, one of its main draws is that it seems like it would fit right into the Studio Ghibli film universe. To me, it feels like Sally's developer has taken inspiration from Howl's Moving Castle, Spirited Away, and Castle in the Sky.
It isn't just the game's visuals that make it feel magical, though, the slice-of-life, cozy elements of this game also make it seem like the perfect game to relax with. In Sally, players will create their character and embark on Sally - the airship - which is crewed by a group of kids and two sweet grandmas. Whilst aboard the ship, players will craft, cook, farm, build, and explore as well as help their crewmates repair the boat and find themselves in the process.
It’s finally time to hop aboard the Sally!
