In order to gain gamers’ trust, West Games hosted a Reddit AMA. Now I don’t know what West Games had in mind, however this AMA event turned into a disaster."
Josh Griffiths writes: "When a campaign is suspended its funding is permanently halted. If we take the word of those who have had their project suspended, Kickstarter gives little to no warning that your campaign is at risk. They don’t tell creators why their campaigns were suspended, nor do they communicate with them after the fact. In the most extreme cases like Plane Simulator 2001 and Should I Bother With this Game, the titles give you a good idea on why Kickstarter took action. But with Kickstarters like Flat Kingdom and Chumba World, it’s a lot less apparent."
I was wondering when someone would write an article like this, what with all the shady campaigns that have failed recently. Going to be a good read.

Here's a quick recap of what the fine folks at West Games have been doing while the rest of us are getting ready for the winter holidays."
STALKER is one of the most immersive games I've ever played. I'm very much looking forward to a new entry. ***GET TOUTA HEA STAWKER***
Ahmad Khan writes: "Where there is West Games there is Space Enigma Studios following closely behind with its own infamous Project Tool. Yes sir, Areal/Stalker Apocalypse has a twin sibling called Project Tool. Previously titled Space Pioneer over at Kickstarter, the game failed to be funded because it was correctly accused of plagiarizing artwork and game assets much like West Games' Areal did. Developer Space Enigma Studios is now calling itself W.A.R.P. and have relaunched Project Tool via World Wide Funder."
