Company’s new crowdfunding thing launches
The pilot phase ofSquare Enix Collective, a platform in which companies can solicit feedback on pitches and potentially crowdfund through Indiegogo with assistance from Square Enix, has kicked off with its first three studios: Ruffian Games, Kitfox Games, and Tuque Games. You can see cast a simple “yes” or “no” vote for these pitcheson the Collective site.
“At the end of the 28-day period, if there’s enough community support, the teams could be offered the chance to be supported through crowdfunding via a partnership between Square Enix and Indiegogo — and if the team hits their target, that’s when the game will go into development.”
At the time of writing, Tuque’s “post-human action RPG”World War Machineseems to have found an audience and the same can be said of Kitfox’sMoon Hunters, described as “Starboundby way ofZelda.” Ruffian’sGame of Glenshasn’t been so fortunate.
