KickPicks – An Introduction
GamingLives takes a look at some of the most promising gaming projects currently hoping for funding from the Kickstarter system.
"The appeal of Kickstarter is that it effectively allows indie developers to bypass the publishers and turn their back on the traditional blood-stained path, instead, forging their own way and maintaining full creative control and rights over their work. Just as digital distribution opened up a whole new world for indies in getting their games to the masses, without the crippling cost and publisher/retailer/distributor stonewalling of more traditional routes, Kickstarter will (hopefully) make life easier still. Indeed, things have rarely seemed more rosy for the humble indies."
