The indie RPG blending Pokemon with Stardew Valley has hit 1500% Kickstarter funding, and to celebrate the dev is adding a uniquely Animal Crossing feature into the mix

Monsterpatch.

Monsterpatch, the cozy RPG best described as a hybrid between Pokemon and Stardew Valley, is now at 1500% Kickstarter funding with $234,000 pledged, and that has unlocked a new stretch goal that adds Animal Crossing-style fossils and a museum to the game.

When we first reported on Monsterpatch a couple weeks ago, it had been fully funded on Kickstarter in just 16 minutes and had almost $60,000 in pledges against a modest, and weirdly specific, goal of $11,597. Today, it has almost 20 times the amount of money solo developer Sean Young originally hoped for, proving a massive appetite for retro-looking RPGs with creature catching and farming elements.
