Welcome back to another update in the world of Kickstarter gaming campaigns and what I think looks cool in them.
To go back over previously covered campaigns, both Creekside Creep Invasion and Queer Quest have little time to make up a lot of their goal, although Creekside more than Queer Quest. Goblins of Elderstone though has a little more time and is not too far off their target, so I've high hopes that it at least will see a full funding.
Drawing Dead
First up we have a card game that plays sort of like poker but with ways to screw with your opponent or cheat.
Drawing Dead sets you as an undead western soul, walking the land of living and dead and gambling with your soul to finally be able to pass on. Each player around the table will draw a role card which will give them a special ability for that round, which you can use to steal cards, draw others, switch and whatever else you need to do to reclaim your soul chip and win.
Drawing Dead has a $40,000 goal, of which is has made $13,760 so far with 28 days to go.
Death Witch: Bloodline
Next up we have an action arcade-style game from a fairly new indie studio, all about using demons to fight off holy armies across generations.
The story of the game has the titular death witches being necromancers who use their abilities to communicate with the dead. However, a holy order formed to eliminate the death witch order past, present and forever - and now the death witches must use their forbidden demon summoning knowledge to fight back. Each era too will have their own summonable demons, and since the witch can only summon and nothing else you need to learn how to make use of what summons you have!
Death Witch: Bloodline has 29 days to go to make it's $10,000 target. It has so far gotten $10.
Cloud Runner
A physics-based game next, an endless runner which the creator hopes to get to VR.
Cloud Runner is basically a game where you run through the levels and try to make it as far as possible. The creator has said that they hope to get Vive support for the game if successful, as well as making the game for PC available from their own site if Steam is not welcoming to the game.
If this sounds like your sort of thing, Cloud Runner has 29 days to go to make its $2,000 target.
Alone in the Woods
Lastly we have this game about being a child who wakes up in a dark forest with no idea how she got there and must find her way out.
Around 2,000 minors vanish in the US every day, and one of them just woke up lost in the woods. Playing as 9-year-old Annie you must venture through the dark atmospheric forest to discover just what is happening and how you ended up here in the first place. The developer has said that they will be using the Kickstarter for production costs and hope to not have to put advertising in the game that could ruin the atmosphere they are aiming for.
Alone in the Woods has made $215 of its $8,000 goal with 29 days to go.
