One Hit Pixel: "Big Kickstarter successes make headline news, especially when it is either associated with a legendary game producer or a long-forgotten genre/series. It’s safe to say that some projects exist because of the hype-train surrounding Kickstarter after Tim Schafer’s multi-million dollar backed Broken Age got funded as the “Double Fine Adventure”, but even so it was obvious that people wanted to back other high-profile projects based on older games.
Wasteland 2’s funding quickly followed suit, but when the proposition arose to bring players back to the dystopian futuristic Seattle of Shadowrun – where artificial limbs are commonplace and addicts insert chips into their own heads for that special euphoric fix – plenty of fans of the SNES game leaped at the chance. Shadowrun Returns was swiftly funded and even though it failed to make its original target date by over six months, it is now ready. But is it incredibly wiz, or a steaming pile of drek?"
