My Games Design

The self described open-source rogue-like survivalcraft / driving game in a sci-fi zombie apocalypse has successfully reached its goal on Kickstarter , and one of the developers will now be able to work on it full-time for a few months to implement for example a back-end for proper graphics. But see and hear about it yourself: The first stretch-goal is close too, with 12 days remaining to pledge money towards this cool project. Less rosy does it look for the previously featured Data Dealer project . With only 48 hours to go, but still about 10k missing it will be a close finish if at all. They got some remarkable press lately though and jumped up about 10k in the last days, so it is still possible . So if you haven't done it yet, pledge here .

The the last Kickstarter game project we featured was sadly not successful and with only 11 days to go it doesn't look too good for Data Dealer either. But this HTML5 and CC-by-SA licensed game project comes with a pretty cool idea and is quite playable already. It centers around the idea that services like Facebook & Google really arn't in the business of bringing you a good service (aka "If you are not paying for it, you're not the customer; you're the product being sold") and makes a ironic game out of that. Here is game-play trailer to give you an better idea: Or try the current demo on their webpage . Now of course as we have all recently learned (or at least got confirmation about), the reality is even more twisted than just the private business side of things. But over the revelations of the mass surveillance by the NSA & Co., we should still not forget that all those big internet companies arn't victims by far either. P.S.: My best wishes...
