Brad Jones writes "Earlier this year, iQiOi Co. launched a Kickstarter for Blackmore (or Blackmore's Bane), a steampunk adventure game that intended to take full advantage of a development team made up of industry veterans from both America and Japan. The campaign was unsuccessful, raising only $77,508 of the $200,000 stated as its goal. Considering the impressive array of talent associated with the project and the fact that the game itself seemed rather appealing, why was it that this campaign failed where others have succeeded?"
Blackmore is perhaps the most disappointing Kickstarter ever. In today's episode of Kicked, we examine why it failed, and what it could have done better.
Man, that campaign was such a mess. Would have been disaster of it was funded.
For some reason I though this article had something to do with a parody of Bloodborne. lol weird, don't know why I thought that.
Josh Griffiths writes: "Yes, the gravely voice known to a generation as Big Boss and Solid Snake is famous for Metal Gear, but he’s had other roles in recent years. You may be surprised how many of them came from Kickstarter. He’s been involved in eight different Kickstarter projects, one of which was a movie, to varying degrees."
Definitely seems like he's always popping up in kickstarter campaigns. Him and Jennifer hale.
Blackmore, the Japanese steampunk point-and-click adventure, has failed to reach its Kickstarter crowdfunding goal. However, the game’s developers are rethinking their approach to the title.
