Last week, Peter Molyneux, the Man Of Many Promises, took some time out from overseeing Curiosity to put up a new video on Kickstarter announcing a new project that would rely on crowdsource investment. The name of the project? Godus. The point of it? To go back to his earliest roots and create a new title for the ailing “God Game” genre that he first created back in 1989 with Populous.
OVERRIDER is a new sci-fi roguelite about hoverboarding and smashing robots, and there's a Kickstarter campaign to help get it funded.
Cinnabunny and Time is Honey are currently up to be crowdfunded on Kickstarter right now. They're both adorable.
A Kickstarter campaign for Scrylight, an AR game that lets players hunt ghosts, is launching in October.
The only God game I got into was the ActRaiser series and it was pretty innovative and fun. I hope it gets re-released soon, it'd work well on a handheld or as a tablet game.
Pete, the washed up, bring about a "comeback" for God games?
Riiiiight. Just like the creators of DOOM will give shooters a "comeback" from general mediocrity....No, wait, they only ended up created RAGE.
