Vampire Syndicate: Gangs of MoonFall – Kickstarter

It’s time to once again promote a Kickstarter. This time, it’s the vampire cyberpunk RPG Vampire Syndicate: Gangs of MoonFall. It seems very ambitious coming from a solo dev, but from what is shown it looks impressive already. It’s a mix of first/third-person exploration with top-down turn-based combat taking place in some kind of cyberpunk dystopian nightmare, with vampires. Right up my alley. I should warn though, there will be explicit sexual themes in the game; in other words hardcore porn. However, going by what the developer told me, you don’t have to interact with that aspect of the game. I’m not personally into sex-games, so I’m glad that the “degeneracy” is a choice! 

You can find the Kickstarter here, and you can find the game’s Steam page here (You must be logged in to see the page, because of age restriction). And by looking at the status of the Kickstarter, it’s more than eighty percent completed already. So, this is most likely a done deal already, but that shouldn’t hinder you from putting in some money, if the title interests you.

Heir of the Dog – Kickstarter

Today, the Heir of the Dog Kickstarter launches over at Kickstarter, and I thought I would just give everyone a heads-up. It looks to be a fun point & click adventure, with very typical British humor, set in the 1800s Victorian London. There is a demo, too, over at their Steam page. I tried it, and already, it feels very well-produced with a lot of comedy absurdity. Check it out!

Swordhaven: Iron Conspiracy is a go!

Oh yeah, baby! I’m a bit late to the party, but it seems the AtomTeam made it. Swordhaven is fully financed through Kickstarter with about 67 hours to go from the posting of this article. I noticed that they already managed to hit one stretch goal – a player base. Not sure how excited I am about that particular addition since most RPGs that have some kind of home usually feel a bit undercooked. However, I’m glad to see they are making a few more bucks on top of what they wanted. Now to see if they can reach the next stretch goal – Cursed City. Which I have to admit sounds much more enticing, maybe because I live in one in real life. Who knows? Anyway, I’m happy to see they made it. Now the eternal wait begins.

The Swordhaven Kickstarter has launched!

The Kickstarter for the upcoming low-key Baldur’s Gate I-inspired RPG Swordhaven: Iron Conspiracy has launched. I backed it for 15 euros, which grants me a digital key for the game when it comes out, but not much else. The Kickstarter is at this moment around 19% complete. To me it looks like they will make it, however, I’m not a Kickstarter expert. I sure as hell hope they do make it because I tested the demo that you can find on their Steam page, and it’s good. It’s very charming and plays superbly into the low-level adventure feel.

Swordhaven: Iron Conspiracy – New upcoming RPG!

Swordhaven: Iron Conspiracy is a new upcoming RPG that takes heavy inspiration from the first (and best) Baldur’s Gate. It’s made by the developers AtomTeam, which in the past has created such titles as ATOM RPG: Post-apocalyptic indie game and ATOM RPG: Trudograd. So, it’s not some random dudes trying to break in with the fancy idea of RPG throwback – it’s a genuine thing that gives me confidence that it will be a fine product. They recently released a gameplay trailer that you can watch below.
