Within the last few months, Indiegogo performed some housekeeping. It’s hard to put an exact date on when since they made these changes with such little fanfare. We’ve chronicled Indiegogo’s failings in the past, especially with games, but perhaps they’re turning a new leaf. One…
[Update: I just got word from Russ that Take This has received a check from FirstGiving for the funds raised on Indiegogo. This will help Take This and the AFK Room Program survive 2017. They have still not received an official response from Indiegogo.] In 2013,…
When Driven Arts was able to relaunch and fund a scaled-down campaign for Days of War it seemed like their struggle for visibility in the WW2 shooter market was behind them. With a new campaign and a focus on early access, they easily surpassed their $20,000…

Nothing spices up a 16-bit horror themed summer camp like snow. At least that seems to be the idea behind Fossil Games’ latest Camp Sunshine update. The winter theme adds a touch of snow and plenty of chances to catch up with the murderous Sunshine Bear….
Is Eisenwald: Blood of November based on the upcoming election battle between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton? That’s the accusation raised in a few of the negative Steam reviews since its November 1st release. And while my initial reaction was to dismiss such bizarre comparisons,…
Back in July, we wrote about the Decline of Indiegogo over the last few years. Indiegogo claims to be the most popular crowdfunding platform, but the success of Kickstarter funded games brings that into question. 17 games raised more money than Indiegogo’s most successful gaming…
Remember the old days, when games didn’t grind the action to a halt to show you a half-baked 15-minute cutscene about why the main character needs to Shoot the Bad Guys? Ruckert Broductions hopes to bring you back to those days with Redie (pronounced “re-die”,…
War! HUH! What is it good for? Anti-war media, for a start. Such as Long Gone Days, by Camila Gormaz and Pablo Videla. It attempts to look at the “modern day military” using an underground nation (literally in this case) of mercenaries. It’s safe to…
Game development can be hard. The long hours, constantly trying to fix the little nitty gritties that should only take a second but can end up taking days, if not weeks, all the while forcing you to push back work on the actual major parts…

War isn’t an uncommon theme to gaming. With everything from gameplay driven industry giants like Call of Duty, to casual phone apps like Clash of Clans, the market for games about war have always thrived. Long Gone Days is a little different in its approach….
I cannot tell you how excited I am about this. After being in development for a decade, and being public since 2008, Edge of Twilight is back on Indiegogo! For those of you who aren’t aware – and no one can blame you since this…
Critical Hits: An Indie Gaming Anthology was recently brought to my attention by a fellow English literature graduate from my university days. How it managed to slip under my radar, I’m not quite sure, but I feel these circumstances perfectly encapsulate everything this book is….
