I’m usually not a fan of turn based strategy games, but I do love a good card game. In Legions of Tyrandel, you’ll be squaring off against an opponent as you both try to take each other out. Sounds simple enough, but I’m sure that…
Visual novels come in all shapes and sizes, with unique plots and twists. Coming soon to Kickstarter is one about music, romance, intrigue, and betrayal. This sounds like just my kind of game. Love, Money, Rock’n’Roll is a story set in 1980s Japan. The protagonist…
I’ve been on a GLITCHED binge, even though it’s just a demo. I’m already a fan, absolutely rabid about the game. I haven’t figured out everything about it yet, but enough that, well, you’ll be seeing a few articles about it in the coming days. As I’m…
Back in 2012, several Sierra alumni took to Kickstarter for spiritual successors to get their franchises funded. Of those, Corey and Lori Cole’s Hero-U: Rogue to Redemption is still being worked on. After nearly four years in development, the end is still not in sight….
Neo-Victorian Skirmish Squad has an extensive past, one that’s richer than its present and likely its future. Its Kickstarter campaign began September 5, 2013, with Terncraft Games at the helm. The Kickstarter page tells us David Sushil is the man behind the company. But he’s…
I’m a fan of games that tackle queer themes, especially if they’re more subtle than most. After trying out the demo for Eldet, I instantly backed the game because of this. Unfortunately, not everyone was happy with the “gay only” characters. Developer Marccus has addressed…
Have you ever pondered upon the peculiarities of becoming a stray dog, having to steal food from unsuspecting humans? I know, that’s quite the specific question, but I’m sure you wouldn’t be surprised if I told you there’s a game focusing exactly on that concept….
The quality of crowdfunding demos on our YouTube channel is nothing if not inconsistent. Indivisible and Long Gone Days’s demos are practically finished products. Others like Deliver Us The Moon’s first demo just didn’t work. Unfortunately, for both myself and my colleague Joanna, we can…
I’ll admit that I have never played a Silent Hill game. Even if I had, I wouldn’t touch Silent Hill: Resurrections. The entire Kickstarter pitch is a joke, a campaign that nobody should take seriously. I’m honestly surprised that there are pledges at all. Unless…
At first glance, it’s hard to tell that Astro Boy: Edge of Time is a card game. If you skip the video and go straight to the page, there’s only the description calling this a “CCG” to clue you in. Judging from the rest of the…
Engaging with the community is an area that many Kickstarter creators overlook, but that’s certainly not the case with Synthetik. The futuristic, top-down shooter already looks promising with its crisp graphics and plenty of action. Yet it’s the enthusiastic attempts to attract backers that really…
At The Gates is another case of a developer leaving a big company to work on his own project with the help of Kickstarter. Jon Shafer, previously known as the lead behind Civilization V, created the campaign back in February of 2013. Sitting in the…
I’m a sucker for good yaoi visual novels, but the ones I enjoy the most have more than just romance attached to them. In the case of Legend of Rune, the world is literally at stake. In this “boy’s love” story, the titular character is…
You ever noticed how everyone tries to get away with stuff by claiming its satire? These days, YouTubers are bashing people’s faces in with baseball bats and claiming it’s a “social experiment,” but the principle is the same. Enter Donald Trump, Ted Nugent’s bowl of…
It’s impressive to happen upon a crowdfunding campaign that skips all the ambiguity of, “will this game ever get finished” and jumps right into the good stuff. Well Bred Rhino’s Last Stitch Goodnight already looked like a solid title, but now it will get some extra…
Well, that didn’t take long, did it? Five months or so after the release of the Kickstarter Hyper Light Drifter, we get Ruin of the Reckless, a totally unrelated game. Totally unrelated in this case of course meaning almost exactly the same. Every aspect of…
