Hey kids, there are quite a few space games in crowdfunding mode that I’ve been made aware of, so I wanted to give a quick rundown of ’em all. I’ve mentioned some of these before, but if I missed one, please don’t hesitate to let me know. Here goes!
- Ascent: The Space Game – Y’all might remember we had the creator of the game on our podcast back in March, and since then I’ve toyed with the game and am enjoying it a lot. Now they wanna make it look even better, so go check it out!
- Flagship – This highly-anticipated RTS featuring you controlling your forces from the fully-rendered bridge of your flagship, also launched a Kickstarter campaign, and is looking great! I did a Q&A with ’em a while back, but the game has evolved since then so I’m working on a new one. ;)
- Reassembly – You might recall we just had these guys on the podcast! Well good news, they’ve been funded!!! Congrats to them!
- Battleship Commander – The developer of this game emailed me to let me know it exists, and their IndieGoGo campaign could use some love, so check ’em out.
- Chosen Space: Relaunched – This apparently is a revamp of an old browser-based spacey MMO, which looks pretty cool. They also just apparently passed their modest funding goal, so congrats to them!
- NCG-19: Gravitus – This is a spacey 4X MMO thingy that I only just discovered, but it looks pretty nifty.
- More of M.O.R.E. – This campaign is chugging along and is almost at half their funding goal! Awesome! Check it out if you haven’t already!
- Empyrion – Thanks to reader gchatman10 for pointing this one out. :) They aren’t in a Kickstarter yet, but according to their site they will be soon!
That’s what I could find for now folks. Again, if you know of a campaign I didn’t mention, please let me know about it. Thanks for reading!
M.O.R.E. makes me worry just a little bit only because I fear they’ll keep expanding the project past the budget again. Does look good so far though.
Yeah, I’m on the fence about backing my own self…
Check out Empyrion. Its a spacey buildy combaty game. Looks like it will have space and ground combat, plus multiplayer.
Welcome to the comments gchatman10! I have to admit, at first I was confused, I couldn’t find them on Kickstarter or IndieGoGo! Then I saw on their site that they’re planning one soon! Excellent.
