Amanda French writes: "This dubious Kickstarter campaign for the Child's Play franchise was launched recently by one Donna Howland. In their bio they write that they are a game developer who is inspired by "games PewDiePie, Jacksepticeye, etc play" and whose experience comprises "mostly [...] MMO or Maze games like the games I have created before like Pirate Diamond or the alpha version of it Diamond Pirate." The campaign page is short, with the core of its sales pitch outlined by a run-on sentence that basically states how the would-be game developer was inspired to make a game for this classic slasher horror franchise after watching the movies. They make certain to assure backers that they would make a demo as quickly as they can, which is why they are only asking for £125. So far they have £1 pledged, likely by someone as a gag."
