Vigor Roads is a MMO that blends furious gunplay with monstrous armored vehicles to create a jam-packed, “dynamic” action and racing game. Developed by NeuronHaze, it’s currently seeking $25,000 and has raised roughly $7,000, with well over three weeks left to go. The combination of…
It’s been a busy year for Infinium Strike. The futuristic tower defense game was brought to Kickstarter back in July, 2015, and now its journey is coming to a close. With the developer’s latest Kickstarter update, the release date has been announced. Or rather, the…
The Post-Apocalyptic RPG Krai Mira recently appeared on Kickstarter. This game has been in development for quite a while and it has the development logs to prove it. Krai Mira or Crimea, is heavily inspired by the Fallout series (especially the first and second games)…
Ghost Theory first spooked Kickstarter back in January, but for whatever reason the ghostly campaign failed. Now, after going back to the scary drawing board, developer Dreadlocks are back on Kickstarter with their haunting tale. Okay, I’ll stop that now. I don’t want to give…
When it comes to talking about crowdfunding one thing we rarely discuss is what happens long after the campaign ends and the developer is ready to send out all the physical goodies promised. While I have not personally ran any campaigns myself I have seen…
Gunkatana is headed to Kickstarter. The game’s official website informs me: “Gunkatana is a game of two speeds: turbo fast and dead. Fast ‘n’ dangerous grind rails take you to your next kill, across neon-lit streets and rain-soaked cityscapes”. Alright, I’m sold. And that’s before…
Bear Simulator is a highly-rated Kickstarter-funded FPB (First Person Bear) game created to bring bears into the gaming industry. As we all know, bears are a highly under-represented minority in the gaming industry. When they do appear they are objectified as enemies to be slaughtered…
Illustrious Ultima creator, Richard “Lord British” Garriott’s celebrated return to the fantasy role playing genre has suffered greatly from setbacks and miserly money grabs. Shroud of the Avatar: Forsaken Virtues raised an immense $1,919,275 with Kickstarter back in 2013. The game touted itself as the…
HomeMake‘s been a little quiet on the Kickstarter front. The experimental platform adventure game has just posted its first official update since May last year, as the development team has been updating backers primarily through their TIG devlog. Backers unaware of this fact will be…
Space is big, like really big, and Limit Theory planned to procedurally generate all of it. Developer, Josh Parnell, received $187,865 to fund his infinite algorithm space exploration game, but it’s over three years later and backers are still waiting to see results. Limit Theory had…
For a game that claims to be an interactive fiction story about romance and intimacy, Finding the Time seems to fall flat on both. The premise is helping a couple navigate the difficulties in their relationship and striking a balance between career and each other….
Nevermind is perhaps one of the most interesting horror games of 2015, at least in terms of how it intertwines technology and gameplay. Released last September, its shtick was integrating a heartbeat sensor in-game – a peculiar idea that actually worked quite well in dynamically adjusting…
Sometimes, a Kickstarter game receives funding and then just slowly disappears. This is the risk backers gamble with anytime they choose to fund a project. However, sometimes a game disappears so quickly and so completely it warrants a closer look. To that end, I present…
The Video Games Live Level 5 game music album’s Kickstarter is less than a day old as of this writing and well over 60% funded, with 49 days left to go. For those who’ve never heard of the CD and concert series, Video Games Live is…
Onagro Studios have been teasing a second Kickstarter campaign for Möira for a while now, and with that now imminent (no confirmed date is available beyond a promise of ‘soon’) I’m sure we could all do with a brief reminder of what went wrong the first…
