American McGee and Lulu are calling Alice fans to support Alice: Otherlands in the final hours of the Kickstarter. Alice: Otherlands only has 43 hours left and still needs another $25,000 to be fully funded. American has already acquired the film rights to the ‘Alice’ property, and plans to start working on a series of animated shorts based on the ‘Alice: Otherlands’ concept.
American McGee has denied claims his Shanghai-based development studio Spicy Horse is closing down. A post to Chinese social media platform Weibo announced "Spicy Horse to close this week, thanks for the three years", but McGee was quick to dismiss the rumour.
I'm currently enjoying Alice: Madness Returns which is I bought for $2 during a PSN flash sale. It's a very interesting creepy platformer.
It'd be interesting to see Spicy Horse work on another project.
I'm curious... what has McGee and his studio produced in the last several years to even keep things going?? It's a genuine question.
I've enjoyed all his works. All I can say is that I hope he continues in some fashion. Loved the Alice games, Madness Returns definitely went unappreciated over all.
Alice: Madness Returns creator American McGee has successfully Kickstarted his spin-off animation series Alice: Otherlands.
The project completed its funding drive last night with $222,377 (£145k) - a decent wedge higher than its $200k target.
Spicy Horse Games, the folks behind Akaneiro: Demon Hunters and Alice: Otherlands, the later of which was recently successfully funded on KickStarter, have today announced that they will be donating $40,000 worth of Akaneiro: Demon Hunters Karma to Operation Supply Drop.
At least some devs are doing something useful with their money
*cough*Activision*Cough*.

im sorry, i cant backed a game that is not coming to my desired platform :(
So umm, Is this going to be a Movie or a Game?

@Dagobert
Ah right ok, This article would have been better suited on "Filmwatch".
I backed this, even if it's not a game but having American McGee's Alice become more popular is good enough for me so we can hopefully see another Alice game. I love the twisted world in Alice and the whole puzzle platformer aspect to it.
