Apocalypse Now game way short of Kickstarter goal, starts own funding site
With nine days left in its campaign, The Apocalypse Now video game is around $700,000 short of its $900,000 funding goal. That mark likely won’t be met, so the developers are taking a different approach.
They started collecting funding on ApocalypseNow.com. That site will stay up through the development of the game, supposedly offering fans a place to gather and follow along with transparent updates as development continues.
The ultimate goal? $5,000,000.
Game Director Montgomery Markland offered this in the statement that brought the news.
“We are making a unique interactive experience with the Apocalypse Now videogame — it’s like Fallout: New Vegas on acid in Vietnam…The Apocalypse Now team plans to raise $5 million to produce an authentic game that the people want to play.â€
Sounds sort of like Star Citizen, without the successful Kickstarter
