It’s been two years – two years – since Lioness updated its Kickstarter backers. To put that into perspective, that’s a radio silence covering 2,255 backers and $26,735 of investment. Yikes. Pretty ironic, considering Lioness‘s themes of non-existence. That streak ends today. What’s even crazier is…
When it comes to adventure games I’m a patient person. As long as it eventually comes out and I get to play it I’m usually happy. With that said, even my patience has a limit. With it being over three years since the Kickstarter ended…
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…
Do you love video games? What about anime? For some reason, many fans of one form of media are often fan of the other. I consider myself a fan of both, though the majority of my time is spent purely on gaming these days. In…
I’m a sucker for stories where one or more people are destined to walk along one road or another and they have the option to give in and honor the wills of the powers that be or to make the decision to march to their…
The end is nigh! No, wait it’s already here – Sheltered was released for PC, Xbox One and PS4 on 15th March 2016 and this post-apocalyptic survival sim has got off to a strong start. Official reviews are still a bit thin on the ground with Metacritic showing…
I’ll be the first to admit that I know next to nothing about MOBAs. The Massive Online Battle Arena genre (okay, I know some things) is hugely popular within the hardcore gaming community, but it doesn’t exactly have mainstream appeal. A Real-Time Strategy sub-genre, I…
I love visual novels with a unique twist. While I do love me your standard “slice of life” fare sometimes the most memorable ones are those that take the genre and spin its own tale without relying too much on the tried-and-true tropes. With Bloody…
Yes, you read that correctly. If you follow the crowdfunded gaming scene at all, you’ve no doubt heard of Alice Dreams Tournament, a successful Kickstarter project headed for the Sega Dreamcast (no matter how many times you read that, it never gets any less intriguing)…
It’s no secret that I love dragons. Which is why when I saw Dragon: The Game launch on Kickstarter I didn’t hesitate to back it. After receiving my Steam early access key I couldn’t wait to try it out. I really did love the idea…
A skill often needed for anyone crowdfunding their game is the ability to acknowledge one’s mistakes. Adapt and seize the right moment, before it all goes downhill – that’s what Driven Arts did with Days of War, it seems. As things were not looking that bright money-wise…
End of the Mine has relaunched on Kickstarter. You might remember the original End of the Mine campaign, or you might not. The somewhat Lovecraftian-looking side-scroller launched on Kickstarter back in January, and failed to reach its $33,000 goal by February. Indeed, it brought in just $1,637,…
There’s a saying. You can’t keep a good man down. Or something to that effect. And in the case of the horror-themed adventure game Song of Horror this is most certainly true. After two failed Kickstarter attempts Protocol Games has managed to secure outside funding…
Visual novels usually are either light-hearted with plenty of hijinx and romance or are serious affairs about the human condition. And then there are those that fall somewhere in-between. Looking at the pitch for Ignis Avis Venatio this third option seems to fit the bill….
We live in an age where video game crowdfunding is not only accepted, it is often expected. Many indie developers now consider hitting up the popular options – Kickstarter or Indiegogo – both as a means to draw attention and receive much-needed development funding. Of…
