One of the main concerns with crowdfunding websites like Kickstarter is the uncertainty surrounding the use of funds after a campaign ends. Once people give money toward a Kickstarter, they want the product to actually come to fruition. While people who run Kickstarter campaigns are bound by the terms and rules of Kickstarter, sometimes funds are misused.

Now, however, the Federal Trade Commission has decided to take action in at least one of these cases. A 2012 Kickstarter for a board game called The Doom That Came to Atlantic City succeeded in raising over $120,000, significantly more than its $35,000 goal, but the creator of the game ended up using the money on personal expenses rather than making the game. After fourteen months, he abruptly canceled the project and didn't fulfill all of the backer rewards. Recently, the FTC decided that this violated the law and filed a complaint with a federal court. , and several suspicious campaigns, so it is good that the FTC is attempting to stop such wrongful spending.

The successful freemium game is based on five principles, says Canadas minister of mobile gaming. Entice the player with a simple game loop. Use lots of flashing ch-chings and compliments to make the player feel good about themselves. Train the players to spend your fake currency. Offer them a way to spend real currency for your fake currency so they will forget they are spending money. And make the game about waiting, but let the player pay not to wait. It is a sure-fire way to make lots of money.

The Dallas Cowboys, one of the most famous teams in the NFL, are trying something new to train their quarterbacks. The team has signed a two-year deal with a startup calledto the story.

According to Re/code, "After donning the headset, players see a live-action 3D video replay of a football play from the quarterback's perspective, and can review that play from a first-person view over and over, looking in any direction."

The current iteration of StriVR's headset is not interactive, the site points out. But as it stands, coaches can test a quarterback's decision-making skills, while another benefit is that players can "practice" without the entire team.

StriVR was developed by former Stanford kicker Derek Belch. The technology is used at Stanford, and also at a variety of other colleges. The Dallas Cowboys become the first pro team to use the technology. They have not won a Super Bowl since 1996.
