Sekai Project have made quite a name for themselves in the visual novel space in just a few years. They’ve also gained a reputation for their liberal use of Kickstarter to fund projects. Of course, those most diehard fans recognize that only around 10% of…
When it comes to horror stories the supernatural has always piqued my interest. There’s just something dark and mysterious about eldritch beings and things that go “bump in the night”. Which is why I was excited to finally get my hands on the little demo…
I’m a fan of adventure games and I’m a fan of horror games, so when I got the chance to review Outpost 13 I took it. And while quite short it does show some promise. Unfortunately, the game is way too short to comfortably recommend…
As a fan of sci-fi horror with rogue AIs (who doesn’t love 2001?) I figured that it would be a good idea to check out the demo for the visual novel Quantum Suicide. Unfortunately, the point of the story that they chose to feature left…
Night City Assault sounds like a snuff film. It’s not. Promise. Rather, Night City Assault is ‘a story-based beat ’em-up combining RPG gameplay and mission design with Metroidvania-style exploration’, which sounds just as exciting, albeit much less terrifying. Shall we take a look? We might…
Popup Dungeon is a Roguelike Papercraft Tactical RPG funded on Kickstarter in early 2014. Halloween may have been and gone, but that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy a little paranormal activity, right? Well, the Ring Runner crew seems to thinks so since their latest update…
Deserted is an Action-Adventure RPG from Zebik Media. It launched on Kickstarter earlier this week and has 16 backers. The game is set to be a sci-fi adventure inspired by the 1991 cinematic Action-Adventure, Another World. Deserted seems to have very little to do with…
Following the positive news that refunds would be issued for the cancelled Rocket Ranger Reloaded game, developer Cinemaware has announced details of how backers can apply to be reimbursed. Crucially Kickstarter itself doesn’t have the facilities to arrange refunds so the process has to be…
Hey, do you remember The Fall? That creepy action-adventure game that came out last year? Well, you should, considering it was popular enough to make it to PS4, Xbox One, and Wii U as well as its initial Steam audience. The Fall was funded on Kickstarter…
I love me a good card game and with the release of the combat prototype for The Great Whale Road I couldn’t help but check out this slice of the game. I was also lucky enough to spend an hour talking to Joachim Sammer about…
On November 3, a lovely crowdfunding project with the (surprisingly shouty) name of “HATOFUL BOYFRIEND OFFICIAL PLUSH PROJECT!” flapped onto Kickstarter. Many gamers out there have heard of Hatoful Boyfriend thanks to its incredibly unusual premise. In this visual novel, players take the role of…
Yooka-Laylee developers Playtonic Games have unveiled an image of one of the more unique rewards I’ve seen on Kickstarter – a 64GB Yooka-Laylee flash drive fashioned from an actual Nintendo N64 cartridge. These N64 flash drives were available to backers who pledged $340 for the…
As I’m sure you know today is Thanksgiving is the US. It’s a day of for giving thanks for what we have, spending time with loved ones, and helping those less fortunate. With that said, the Cliqist team encourages you to hold on to any…
Fig.co is a crowdfunding website which sounded like a pretty neat idea at the start. After all, for years we’ve been hearing people complain about how Kickstarter isn’t about “investing” in projects. In many ways, the popular site is utilized like a very early pre-ordering…
Anchors in the Drift was just the second crowdfunding campaign on Fig.co. Fig, for the uninitiated, is a newer entrant into the gaming crowdfunding space. Featuring just one campaign at a time, they position their utility on the fact that they offer the potential of…
It was only last month that we had an update on Scraps – Story of a Dog which explained the game was being put on hold but would still be made and another update has swiftly followed, even though the message is generally still the…
