Gorgeously creepy horror RPG, Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones won us over with its Kickstarter campaign and secured funding. Now that the dust has settled and developer Cultic Games has had a chance to set up in their new office, they’ve decided to warn backers of their…

This week’s Kickstarter Game of the Week is, of course, Lost Ember. It’s a game in which you play a wolf wandering around a beautiful landscape. That’s really all you need to know, because the game looks absolutely gorgeous. Okay, a little more info. You’re…
Goofy, but somehow awesome, pirate FPS Blackwake has reopened its backing for new prospecting swashbucklers. Despite hitting successful funding last year, the developers decided to reopen the campaign through their site after a survey revealed people were interested. Those who back the game on the…
Pitching a pinball game on Kickstarter must be the hardest thing to do in the world. (Minus all the jobs and positions that can legitimately lay claim to that title anyway.) There’s just no way to adequately convey if the game will be any good…
Sydney Hunter and the Caverns of Death is a Kickstarter campaign designed solely to appeal to retro gamers. As Cliqist contributor, and avid occasional YouTuber watcher, Marcus Estrada pointed out, the Kickstarter spent less time talking about the game, and more time trying to attract retro…
I don’t think I’ve ever played a game where a wolf was the main character. There was this one time in Dark Souls when I had a close encounter with one of the creatures. Although, that mostly involved me quietly sobbing in the corner of my room…
Game delays, particularly for crowdfunded projects, are pretty common. Despite this risk, backers are usually pretty good sports about delays. At least, as long as the developer is up-front about them and the final product warrants the extra time. I was expecting a release date for Friday the…
After completing a massively successful Kickstarter Campaign, developer Night Dive Studios has launched full force into preproduction of the System Shock remake. The campaign managed to raise over $1.3 million dollars to produce an updated version of the 1994 classic. Fans who missed their chance…
It is my professional opinion that we have not written about Undertale enough on this website. Considered to be one of the greatest games of all-time, it was Kickstarted in 2013. Yet you’d think it didn’t exist if you’re a frequent reader of ours. Perhaps…
Probably the only thing more fun than a well-executed co-op experience is being able to bring more friends along for the ride. Legends of the Brawl plays out like a typical multiplayer action brawler, but with just enough quirks to warrant notice. In this 4…
“Rayman meets Super Meat Boy and Finding Dory.” It’s a bold claim, but based on what I’ve seen of 2D platformer Spryke, these aren’t just empty words. This makes it even more puzzling to me that the Kickstarter campaign isn’t attracting more attention. So far it has only reached…
Last time we wrote about Lost Ember, the developers were carefully preparing to enter Kickstarter’s flaming depths. As an attempt to amass an early following, the campaign launch was set to happen once Mooneye Studios hit 5000 newsletter followers. There was even that pretty Gamescom teaser trailer which…
Kickstarter campaigns are fickle beasts. Without the right guidance, terrible ideas can seem great, while perfectly good ideas can look catastrophic. Either option is unfortunate, but neither is as detrimental as campaigns that leave potential backers on the fence about pledging. Moon Child, unfortunately, falls…
3D platformers have surged on Kickstarter since Yooka-Laylee found huge success. Even still, the genre hasn’t been very successful in the crowdfunding space. Tyler: Model-005 hopes to change that, and with the highest production values of a 3D platformer since Playtonic’s masterpiece, it stands a…
Developer, From Soy Sauce, originally created Glass Wing as an entry for a month long game jam held by 64 Digits. Over the course of one month FSS was able to create a retro inspired 3D platformer that played like an intriguing mashup of a…
