With just minutes remaining in its crowdfunding campaign, Shantae: Half-Genie Hero managed to reach another stretch goal on Kickstarter. Thanks to the $800,000 in donations received on the site as well as through PayPal, the game will be receiving a second bonus chapter.

Here’s the official overview:

“Suffering one mistake too many, the Mayor hires a new Guardian Genie to replace Shantae. When Scuttle Town contracts amnesia, Shantae travels to Tassle Town to discover her rival’s true origins.”

Note that a new transformation will be included in the second bonus chapter.

Half-Genie Hero’s first bonus chapter was guaranteed at $600,000. Yesterday, costume swaps were confirmed for the new Shantae title after total funds hit $700,000.
