After 6 years, 5 months, and 22 days, Plo's HARD Trivia has been updated!!! Now go submit your best guess to the HARD Trivia page, and party like it's 1999!

Kickstarters for indie games seem to be all the rage now. Chances are you’ve come across a few and maybe even backed one or two of em. But none of them can say they were visually inspired by the MOTHER series. Until now, that is.

Follow the adventure of a simple farm hand named Kid as he exposes a conspiracy that has brought Bronco County to the brink of war. Bring six outlaws of the notorious Saints-Little gang to justice as you and three friends journey through cowtowns, Indian villages, ranches, gold mines, prisons, and into the very heart and soul of the American Wild West.

Developed by Dave & Ben at Expermental Gamer, Boot Hill Heroes is influenced by spaghetti westerns and RPGs of the golden age of the SNES. Looking at some of these screenshots one can’t help but feel a similar charm that EarthBound and MOTHER 3 have. However this game is not out to copy our beloved MOTHER series, rather it takes some visual cues while at the same time still remaining its own unique adventure.

The game is nearing completion and one of the last major undertakings is the music and SFX. Wanting to go the extra mile, a Kickstarter was created in order to help fund this last hurdle. With tier prizes such as having an in-game sprite rendition of yourself, your own decorated home, or possibly become a boss, it’s no wonder they have already met their goal and then some in a rather short time! Proceeds past the goal will further the development of the game into making it the best it can be.

Boot Hill Heroes might just be that spaghetti western RPG you’ve always wanted to play. Or, never knew you wanted to play until now. It will feature 4-player local coop, job hats, a unique real-time battle system, and other elements seen in this video. With a planned release of October 2012 on both PC and Xbox Live Indie Games, this will be one to keep an eye on!
