Ghost of a Tale seems to have stalled with 11 days to go. Here's hoping it makes it as the premise and talent seems sound.

I just looked at Son of Nor. The videos remind me a bit of Red Faction's and From Dust's engines, at least in how terrain is manipulated. There's something about that game which feels very generic, though.

I'm not related to the project in any way, but the Son of Nor guys are legit - they have long-running threads on several German-speaking dev boards and I think I've talked to them once on a Jam. So, uh, legit here means they actually have a project running and not a big bag of vapor with some purchased art. And the Air Dash thing just looks like something I'd never pledge to, all the while I have to admit I'm not a Smash Brothers player. I looked up the team and yes, they seem to have a South Korean artist. I'm sorry if this makes me a horrible racist, but my first thought when seeing those artworks was "Yup, that's some Korean MMO drawing style right there" - honed to technical perfection and excellently crafted, but so incredibly forgettable. Look how on their main illustration they just smushed together any theme ever, as long as it looked gamey - punk, demons, machines, steampunk, furry, anime, western, belts'n'zippers, cyber parts, medieval weaponry, modern fashion, fetish gear, realistic, deformed, stylized, wacko Final Fantasy fashion, cartoon, Asian, Western, Wakfu, catgirls, loli, WoW... All without a coherent theme or any sort of message. I know this sounds very damning, but you're trying to appeal to Smash fans here - and for that you better get some personality up in that game. Because while tournament nuts might want to play no-fun hardcore frame-counting matches, they all started playing it to be Fox McCloud with a laser going pew pew pew. And that hook doesn't seem to be present here, as far as I can see. miguelito fucked around with this message at 15:25 on May 3, 2013 |

Yeah, their studio's designer posted about the game on another board. I want to give them credit for making an interesting-looking character face, at least; it doesn't look North American at all.

I wonder if there's somewhere where people sell their SA accounts to be later used like this, or if this was a "oh sure, I'll reactivate my old account for you, what the hell, haven't posted in years" friend of the dev thing.

Marketers making their own shill accounts is usually better as long as they're honest about their intentions, have a product worth promoting, offer some legitimately useful services to the community, and are capable of responding maturely to the inevitable onslaught of trolling directed at them. Pretty high standards for a marketing shill, I know, but sometimes it happens!

So this is not exactly a kick starter but the art guys from homeworld are making a thing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgylViCFHAs http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=G37cFbkArlw You can see that they had the idea for a while, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfcj9epbJzc -first 1:30 or so It is going to be some kind of RTS that is F2P... Sounds cool right? But the  is that they are already taking 50 and 100 dollar pre orders. For 50 bucks you get access to a thing, its called a [PROSPECTOR'S GUIDE], for 100 bucks you get the thing and access to a beta scheduled for the end of the year. So far they have made 30k with no sales pitch, no screen shots, not even a description of the game,  , that's the power of some awesome looking art I guess. https://blackbirdinteractive.com/store/ -cross posted from the homeworld ip thread

Apparently Rawbots is doing a Kickstarter now. I kind of thought everyone in the world grabbed a free copy of it when Sim City tanked, but they seem to be a shoe in to hit their goal. e: holy poo poo I thought they were asking 30k not 300k jeeze

Eh not really, only 6000 dollars of the 300.000 asked after 2 days seems like a guaranteed failure.

Creators of Eternal Darkness will have crowd funding for their new game. Looks to be either a new or a spiritual successor to Eternal Darkness. Whatever it is, I'm pretty excited for it. http://www.ign.com/videos/2013/05/03/shadow-of-the-eternals-teaser-trailer

Yeah, I like Super Smash Brothers because I know who the characters are. That picture just made me wonder "why do I want to battle these characters again?" Plus the guy who is "a cat wearing clothes. that's it" is such lazy design.

Just a heads-up that Eternal Darkness was developed by Silicon Knights of Too Human fame and was the only legitimately good game they ever made, I'd approach this one with caution.

I liked every Silicon Knights game I had played up until Too Human, and I didn't think that game was bad either. They weren't a top-tier studio, but X-Men: Destiny and Denis Dyack being a fuckhead retroactively gives that company a worse reputation than they deserve. Eternal Darkness is legit one of my favourite games of that whole generation.

Oh dear. Not that he wasn't at least partially responsible for the company's success in the past (I mean, he must've been on some level), but he's clearly gone off the deep end at this point and any involvement with him will just end up hurting this game, at least publicly.

If this won't end with Dyack having to destroy all unsold copies of the new game then I don't care.

Whatever it is, I'm pretty excited for it. Huh, that's strange. This leaked cache of the main site talks about characters called Edward, Pious and Whateley, but what appears to be the latest version the Crowd Source page only refers to Whateley and "Tyrannus" instead. Dyack wouldn't be hastily trying to remove all references to ED before they try getting money from people would he?

He says it will play like Dark Souls or Zelda as 2 of the games, but the demo only shows one weapon half of the time and no weapon the other half of the time. Zelda was a game where you found a weapon in every dungeon and had to use it in at least in that dungeon. Sometimes you could actually use it outside the dungeon as well. Dark Souls was more or less all about weapons. If you could use your weapon well and dodge, you are set for any aspect of the game. I've never played Ico or the Gothic series, so I can't say anything about those 2. At the end of the day, all that means is that the demo is inconsistent of the type of game I imagine when the games that inspired it are mentioned.
