While some of us may giggle or nod smirkingly at the dawn of 4/20, Axon Interactive decided that Colorado’s smokiest day of the year would be the perfect time to launch a Kickstarter for their puzzle game, Quench. According to early footage, Quench puts you…

When we covered City of the Shroud earlier this month on Cliqist, we marvelled at how quickly it had reached $12,000 of its $14,000 goal, while also observing that the funding had been reduced substantially from their previously failed campaign, when they asked for $45,000. I…
I wrote about LUNA: The Shadow Dust last week on Cliqist, rambling on about how beautiful it looked and how excited I was for the full game, yada yada yada. Lantern Studio’s director Beidi Guo caught wind of my article and reached out to me,…
For four years now I’ve been backing Kickstarter projects and since then I’ve gotten to be quite knowledgeable on what makes a campaign work and what doesn’t. When Midboss started looking for panel submissions for GX3 last year I jumped at the chance to share some wisdom…
Those pictures of Japanese scenery on Niten’s Kickstarter page look amazing. Like, seriously, uh-MAZING. If those really are screenshots ripped straight from the game, why aren’t people swarming over the project like rabid dogs, itching for a hunk of what creator Donald Macdonald has crafted?…
Home is behind you, while the world is ahead. The past, with the benefit of hindsight, is never as glorious as we thought. Tomorrow, however, will always remain murky. All that leaves us with is today, full of disappointment created by the past and the…
In our first let’s play in about a month, we take a look at City of the Shroud. Now fully funded on Kickstarter, we’ve been keeping an eye on this ambitious game for some time. Promising an epic combination of Street Fighter and Final Fantasy…
“Be careful with the other lot. They owe a lot of people lots of money. Numerous Kickstarter’s, failing to deliver to backers, failing to pay for PR services, art work, sounds and more. They’ve done this to me and five others.” It was a warm…
Racing Apex, a ’90s arcade racer developed by Lucky Mountain Games, is yet another Kickstarter campaign headed straight for pit row. So far, its roughly 130 backers have pledged barely 10% of Racing Apex’s goal of £35,000—which is dismal, to say the least. The campaign…
The In The Shadows Kickstarter really reminds me of a childhood fear of mine. You see, outside my bedroom window was a tree and a street lamp. Every night when I went to bed the light would cast the shadow of a bony hand into my…
I’ll be perfectly honest with you, when I first saw the original Himeko Sutori campaign I wrote it off. The campaign page didn’t seem too compelling and was awfully short in my opinion. So I moved on and banished it from my mind and was…
Bit of bad news and good news for all you fans and onlookers of Lotia. First off, progress on the indie RPG game from Crayon Ponyfish has been going steady for some time now. An update from March 28 says we’re getting maps, a lot more….
I’m a fan of Steam. I have over a thousand games in my library. That said, it’s hard to keep track of what games that I own and it takes a long time to go through my list of something to find. Which is one…
Among countless others, there are three things that I love: adventure games, Lovecraftian horror, and comedy. Now, it really does sound like the three shouldn’t mix well but in the case of Gibbous this indeed the case. As soon as I saw it go live…
I remember when the Oculus Rift first hit Kickstarter back in 2012. This virtual reality headset would have not been the first in the marketplace but it definitely managed to excite people. By the end, this campaign raised a tremendous sum of money: $2,437,429 from…
I want a copy of The Wild Eight! On their Kickstarter page, anywhere from $10-30 guarantees a single digital copy of the game, but they’ve all been claimed so damn quickly… do I really have to shell out more than $30 to get in on early…
