Interfectorem, the Kickstarter-funded project from the Girls Make Games initiative, has finally updated backers on the project’s development, which hit its goal way back in August. $12,701 is a big number, and so radio silence has hardly been encouraging for backers. Nonetheless, the team promises…
It’s the ‘Year of ToeJam’, apparently, as Humanature Studios’ ToeJam & Earl: Back in the Groove is very much on course for its fall release date, as detailed in a recent update to the project’s Kickstarter page. The project, if you’re unaware, has a decent…
With its funding 116% met, Psychonauts 2 has officially finished its campaign and is moving into development. With a successful campaign on the new crowdfunding/investment gaming platform Fig, it stands to demonstrate the potential success of the website and all eyes will be upon the finished…
Ever since I first read The Hobbit and saw just how badass Smaug was I instantly fell in love with dragons. The noble qualities, fierce determinism, and just the fact that these guys can breath freakin’ fire were enough for me to want more. There…
Endica VII The Dream King is an up-to-four player side-scrolling rpg that takes cues from retro games like Megaman, Castlevania, Metroid and more. After over two and a half years and two fundraising campaigns on both Indiegogo and Kickstarter, it was released on January 13….
Kickstarter is all about community involvement. People love seeing a game created from the ground up and being there every step of the way. It is that pull that allows big projects like Ever, Jane to raise over $100,000 in funding. It’s pretty much an unspoken…
An interesting little Platformer popped up on Kickstarter recently. It’s called One Dog Story and it’s an action adventure platformer with RPG elements. The basic premise of the game seems to be that you are some sort of experiment (who happens to be a humanoid dog)…
Darkest Dungeon, one of Kickstarter’s latest darlings and a model for the Early Access game, has finally been released. That means gamers can finally “Go to Hell.” I assume the developers are referring to the games full release, and not something more nefarious. The bad news, if…
Root Double is probably not a name that a lot of gamers would have recognised before Sekai Project launched a Kickstarter to bring it to the West. I’m a big fan of visual novels, particularly the more cerebral ones, but I must confess that I…
Captain’s Log, Stardate um…what day is it? Monday? Thursday? Oh, who cares. We’re in space. I can make up the time. Let’s call it “Splurgsday”. Yeah, let’s go with that. Captain’s Log, Stardate Splurgsday the Eleventeenth. The Indestructible II has finally managed to make it…
Recently launched Kickstarter Space Revolver touts itself as “neo-noir cyberpunk space cowboy action,” featuring 2-4 online play and local multiplayer. But what I think excites me most about this 2D action platformer is perhaps the most revolution feature of all: “etc.” I don’t want to…
Back in 2014, Sam Dyer launched a visual companion book for the Commodore 64, an old gaming PC that was huge in Britain. It was successfully funded, and met with huge praise according to the developer. Again Dyer used Kickstarter to launch his second book,…
It’s been a long, hard battle for the folks at MiKandi Japan as they fought to get their translation funded for XERO’s vampire themed visual novel Libra of the Vampire Princess. Throughout the month they worked tirelessly to reach that coveted 100% milestone and as…
It’s been a while since we heard from Laney Berry and the rest of the team at Classroom Graffiti on their school based mystery adventure game The St. Christopher’s School Lockdown and while we’ve been getting little in the way of visual goodies to see…
In a first for me, I’ve had the opportunity to explore the draft of a Kickstarter project before it goes live. The aforementioned project is Dragon of Legends, an online action role-playing title from Canadian developer Thrive Games featuring 2D pixel graphics and a suitably…
Orion Trail is more than just a modern remake of Oregon Trail in a new setting, but even with that in mind it sends me straight back to those magical early 90’s days sitting in an outdated-even-at-the-time school computer lab, pretending we were learning something….
