Slug Disco Studios has been anything but antsy in their wait to bring Empires of the Undergrowth back to Kickstarter. Their first campaign launched in November 2015, but failed to meet its £15,000 goal by nearly half. Now Slug Disco is back on Kickstarter with…

In September 2012, Studio Nasu managed to raise $33,643 USD through Kickstarter for their game Crisis Heart Brawlers: Clash at Otakon. It was billed as a “classic arcade style side scrolling beat ‘em up” in the style of other fighters like Castle Crashers and the…
Normally, when an awesome and innovative game launches its Kickstarter, it’s flooded with initial backers excited to play it. However, Nebula’s Kickstarter page has been oddly quiet despite extremely promising pre-alpha footage. For retro nerds like myself, nothing’s better than seeing what looks like an…
Cartoonish violence displayed in a humorous vein has been a mainstay of vigilantism since Tom & Jerry began regularly garotting each other on screen. More recent animated series like Family Guy and South Park have picked up the torch and regularly showcase violent situations humorously….
Just when you thought you heard the last of serial Kickstarter AJ Tilley he rears his head again, albeit briefly, to give some of the most insane news that I’ve heard in the past four years. In a recent backer-only update he announced that AJTilley.com…
What were to happen if you mixed Papers, Please, This War of Mine and Fallout Shelter? You’d probably get a random pile of broken code and ill-fitting assets. But if someone were to take ideas and inspiration from those games, they might end up with…
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)…
I don’t know much about the Fear Effect series. I’m part of that new generation of gamers that original Fear Effect director John Zuur Platten is referring to in the Kickstarter trailer; or at the very least, I’m part of the crowd that for some…
We’ve talked about Seymour Butts, once called The Black Hound, before. We’ve tried to figure out the rationale behind this meltdown, if it wasn’t a prank from the beginning. In videos we examined what The Black Hound was before it became a punchline. That’s what…
Anyone who woke up this morning and checked Twitter might have been in for a surprise. Or they might not have been. Mighty No. 9 was (and still is at time of writing) trending in the top 3, and with that game, it can only…
The last couple of weeks, Cliqist has been upping its coverage on tactical RPG City of the Shroud, which been very successful on Kickstarter. Why City of the Shroud, you ask? What makes it any different than the gazillion other RPGs pushing and shoving one another…
Masquerada: Songs and Shadows’ Kickstarter campaign ends in little over a week, and they’re currently sitting at about 50% of their £45,000 goal. It’s as a fully-voiced, pause for tactics RPG, with “fully-voiced” being one of their major selling-points. It’s not the fact that it’s…
[Update 4/27 3:41 AM] The Dolls Kickstarter campaign has been canceled by Hush Interactive. There was only a single, backer only update on the Kickstarter explaining why it was canceled. Luckily Cliqist Editor-In-Chief and butterfly collector Greg Micek backed the campaign to keep an eye…
As a long-time fan of gratuitous, and sometimes pixelated, violence, it pains me to write this article. Recently, I came across a Kickstarter campaign for Gunkatana, which promises to fill the gaping void that ultra-violent greats like The Running Man and Smash TV previously occupied….
There are so many space simulators, galactic adventures and science-fiction projects out in the gaming market at the moment, which means developers have to find a way to make their product stand out from the rest. The same goes for pixel-art games; I’ve covered so many…
The PC version of Tadpole Treble was due to be released on Steam on 22nd April 2016 but you’ll have to wait another couple of weeks to get your hands on this side-scrolling musical adventure as the release has been pushed back to 6th May….
