  1. Cantih's Kickstarter Coverage, vol. 5 - Pretty Damn Pretty

    by on 2013-01-28 at 10:16
    Welcome back to another week of projects.

    Roam - ends February 24 - @ $5k (12%)

    This is a multi-genre game, but at it's heart it's a Diablo-like action RPG. Just with zombies. And base construction.

    I'm telling you about it because while zombies may be everywhere, and this has a little bit of Dead State's sauce, the gameplay is different enough to be worthwhile. If you want that kind of game, but in a Diablo instead of X-com style, IT'S YOUR LUCKY DAY! Also,

  2. Cantih's Kickstarter Coverage, vol. 4 - MANLINESS! CONQUEST! (and a bit of pants-shitting terror)

    New week, new projects for you all.

    Akaneiro: Demon Hunters - ends February 2nd - @ $68k (34%)

    Greetings BG, Cantih here. Some of you know me, some don't have a clue, and most kind of do but don't particularly give a shit. Well, with introductions out of the way, onwards!

    (By the way, today's blog is a combination of the first one from the forum, and new material. Holiday craziness prevented it from launching in the blog section on time. If you just want the new stuff, head to this blogs thread on the forum. Going forward, all entries will be completely new. Also as such, apologies ...
