Yanim Studio launched a Kickstarter campaign today for “Red Goddess”, a new action-adventure title “with distinctive atmosphere and gameplay.” Players will be experiencing the role of teen goddess Divine as they “explore her mind, deep inside the subconscious, and find fragments of her memory.”

The good news? Red Goddess has a Wii U stretch goal on Kickstarter. The bad news? It’s set at $400,000.

Yanim will have a lot of work ahead as it first attempts to raise $50,000 for the base goal prior to April 9.
