Kickstarter has proved little short of a godsend to the gaming industry. As a community, we all know the things we’re excited about and would gladly pay our hard-earned cash for, but developers often have a hard time convincing the people who control the funds to make them.
This platform has now raised well in excess of $100 million for games alone. Kickstarter gives us a chance to put our money where our enthusiasm is and get the gaming experiences we’re all so keen for, but which the corporate bigwigs are too out of touch to realize we want. Here are the most successful Kickstarter campaigns in gaming, a list that comes with a healthy dose of nostalga.
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 Darmstadt-based (Germany) indie games publisher rokaplay and indie games developer Cyberwave, are today very proud and happy to announce that their beautiful and cozy survival/crafting game “Solarpunk“, managed to become fully funded via Kickstarter on June 29th (2023)!
And it's all thanks to the 6,312 backers who pledged a total of €305,266 (which is 10 times the game's original goal of €30,000!) to Solarpunk's Kickstarter campaign." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
