Yacht Club Games (Shovel Knight) reveals a new Kickstarter project titled Mina the Hollower. Players take control of Mina, a renowned Hollower hurtled into a desperate mission to rescue a cursed island. As a mouse, the player can whip, drill, throws, and burrow as Mina explores a pixel-perfect frightful world reminiscent to me of Castlevania and The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening. Currently, there is no confirmation of a release date yet.
