[dropcap size=big]I[/dropcap] understand that not everyone is a fan of crowdfunding and Kickstarter, but I find it extremely frustrating when people dismiss it as a hive of scammers, liars, and cheats. To hear some people tell it you’d think that Kickstarter is nothing but an…
[dropcap size=big]T[/dropcap]he title above pretty much says it all. AJ Tilley is back on Kickstarter with yet another visual novel project that’s seeking funding. According to the backer only updates in his previous campaigns My Highschool Crossdressing Romance is pretty much self funded (where oh…
Visual novel fans rejoice. Mecha fans rejoice. Tactical action game fans rejoice. That’s right. There’s a game that combines the best of all worlds. Cross Fate, at its core, is a tactical mecha combat game featuring everyone’s favorite giant robots beating the crap out of…
[dropcap size=big]S[/dropcap]pectre is a VR horror game that was funded on Kickstarter for about $18k in the Spring of 2014. In the endless sea of horror games on Kickstarter Spectre stood out more than most because it advertised multiplayer action; which means that instead of…
[dropcap size=big]E[/dropcap]very week we take a brief look at all of the Kickstarter video game campaigns that launched in the previous week. This isn’t to say that all of these projects are worth your hard earned cash, but with any luck having all of them…
[dropcap size=big]S[/dropcap]o last week Larian Studios, creators of Divinity: Original Sin, returned to Kickstarter to fund a sequel to their critically acclaimed role playing game. Fortunately for them the project was immediately funded, collecting over $700,000 against a $500,000 goal in less than a day. With nearly 24,000 backers…
It’s not a good idea to hold grudges. Most often, they’re far more trouble than they’re worth! With that said, it is a bit hard for me to look at a Kickstarter that launched recently with a completely open mind. The game is Secluded by…
I’m a bit obsessed with collecting video game consoles. While there are still many more for me to nab from the vast history of gaming, Kickstarter is making it even harder with their own modern devices. Case in point: The GameKid recently hit Kickstarter. This…
[dropcap size=big]I[/dropcap]t’s hardly a secret that I’m a fan of horror games. I’m not talking about those gore fests where you’re constantly up against a raving horde of undead or anything like that (although I won’t deny that they can be fun at times). Nope,…
Red Awakening is a pretty cool neon-infused, bloody, stealth horror game. It’s because of that unique concept and visual design that I immediately recalled that the game was originally brought to Kickstarter back in April. It failed back then, and has since returned for another…
[dropcap size=big]T[/dropcap]he Universim from Crytivo Games was one of the biggest Kickstarter campaigns of 2014, having raised over $387k against a $320k funding goal.

There aren’t many games that I’m looking forward to more than Bedlam. Sure there’s a number of must-buys coming out soon, including Dropsy, Satellite Reign, and Stasis, but Bedlam is the only one that I intend to use a sick day at work for. A post-apocalyptic…
[dropcap size=big]T[/dropcap]he name Grim Dawn sounds like how I used to feel when I had to get up early for work; instead, this particular Grim Dawn is a Diablo style action RPG from Crate Entertainment. If you’ve played the Titan Quest games then Grim Dawn will feel very familiar,…
After a successful release on The Book of Unwritten Tales 2, King Art Games will be returning to Kickstarter starting next week with another campaign. This time they announced the plan to work on a fantasy RPG called The Dwarves. I’m not sure what the…
I’ve backed so many projects that I’ve lost track of which developers keep backers posted on a regular (or semi-regular) basis and which ones only update us once in a blue moon. GondeFire, unfortunately, falls into the latter category. They’ve kept us in the loop so…
The Seed is a post-apocalyptic visual novel from Misery Dev, the team that created the highly regarded and punishly difficult Misery S.T.A.L.K.E.R. mod. When it launched on Kickstarter in March 2014 The Seed was sold as a visual novel / RPG hybrid that tasked players…
