Like I said previously, a flood of indie game projects decided to hit crowdfunding sites in November, and I didn’t want to make one long editorial. I had to split the list up in two. I think this November has been very fruitful with its choices, since I know a lot of games that I think should exist. As usual, only invest in as much you are willing to part with, and the final product might not live up to the hype. Do your research, and only support the best of the best Kickstarters on the site. Enjoy! Obelus Up first is the newest Fig.co campaign, Obelus by developer, Springloaded. You play as an in

Well, the Halloween season is over, and we are moving into the holiday season. This is where I think some crowd-funding projects might struggle, since this is when people start saving up cash for presents for themselves, friends, and family. It’s a shame, since for a season where we help each other and be human, it’s hard for us to go and support projects during this time of the year. Granted, it doesn’t help when bad Kickstarters happen, but still. I found some Kickstarter projects that should be worth your time. Of course, the usual warning for these types of projects is that you should only inves

There are a few things you expect in life. You expect death, taxes, clever humor from Demetri Martin, and crowdfunding sites having a slew of projects all asking for money to fund them. My only honorable mentions will be the GameBoy-inspired roguelike, Kharon’s Crypt and the digital card game Doomtrooper . They already got funded, so I don’t have a reason to talk about them.  As usual, just because these are the ones to go support, it doesn’t mean the ones that should be supported will, by the end of it all, be good games. Let’s not waste any time, and check out the slew of crowdfunding projects th

Well, it’s back to school time, and that means more Kickstarters! Well, technically school time, and Kickstarters don’t have anything to do with one another, but I don’t really need a reason to talk about some awesome and promising-looking Kickstarters. As usual, just because these are the ones to go support, it doesn’t mean the ones that should be supported will, by the end of it all, be good games. The only honorable mention, since it got fully funded, will be going to Fig.co’s Virgo vs the Zodiac , a JRPG using cute sprite work.  Always donate enough so that you won’t be mad that it’s gone. Just

Well, it’s the end of the summer, and it means Kickstarters are back in full swing! Kickstarter and other crowdfunding sites like Fig.co decided to unload on the world some pretty awesome-looking projects that you should both support, or avoid like the plague. I will give out some honorable mentions to projects that got funded in a rather short period of time. These are the Harvest Moon -style action RPG Re:Legend , Phoenix Springs , an adventure game with a surreal setting, Bounty Battle , a Super Smash Bros. -style fighting game using many popular indie game mascots, and the tactical multi-player

Well, June was a wasteland in terms of Kickstarter projects worth writing about. Most of them were all blunders, and there was one individual who was either trolling, or was not really prepared for posting Kickstarters that were, to be frank, some of the worst I have ever seen this year. Luckily, a bunch of Kickstarters have recently been popping up, and taking up the spotlight, and deserve to be shown off. As usual, do your research on the Kickstarter itself, and see if it is worth your money. Not every Kickstarter that gets funded is successful, and the game might not deliver on its promise. Be ca

Well, it’s time for another Kickblunders, a look at what games to avoid and support from May 2017. It felt like after Yooka Laylee ’s release and Nintendo releasing the Switch and making bank, Kickstarter dried up a bit. Luckily, a lot of good Kickstarters are up now, and while some bad ones popped up, I think I found enough to warrant which ones to avoid and which ones to invest into. The only honorable mention I have is for the Kickstarter success Blasphemous . While I was working on this editorial, it got funded right off the bat. Still, if you like 2D action-heavy Dark Souls -style games, then y
