This RTS is actually based off NetStorm: Islands at War, a PC game released in 1997. It even features multiple of the staff members from that original title, however, they’re not able to actually use the IP. They discovered this when working on a fan game under the NetStorm name and decided to create their own unique title with Disciples of the Storm."
Marcus Estrada writes: "Every month Kickstarter is full of wild successes, and depressing failures. While some are always going to have that massive fan push behind them to see hundreds of thousands of dollars in funding others barely make it to the finish line. Due to the nature of Kickstarter, there’s simply not enough money to go around to fund every worthwhile campaign. The purpose of this post is to shine a light on those campaigns that had the chops for success, but for one reason or another failed to make their goal this time. Given campaign restructuring, additional social media pushes, and more they might make it in the future! Of course, anyone who has browsed through Kickstarter pages recognizes that many projects simply don’t have any effort put into them."
From Cinelinx:
Look out, RTS gaming fans, the developers of the classic strategy title Netstorm: Islands at War have come back to Kickstarter in the hopes of fully funding a spiritual successor, Disciples of the Storm.
