Serena Nelson writes: "Kickstarter, and crowdfunding in general, is a unique experience that allows ideas to come to fruition and it lets a developer keep in touch with their fan base. And the good ones keep this conversation open long after the campaign ends, going so far to give as much transparency to the ongoing development as possible. I've talked a bit about projects that fail the first time but manage to make it after a second attempt, but what about those who do get funding out of the gate but still manage to have problems?"

Zack Keosaian writes: "Developer Wispfire is currently running a Kickstarter campaign for their interactive drama Herald. In this point-and-click adventure, players take on the role of the steward aboard the HLV Herald, a merchant ship sailing the seas in a 19th century setting. This steward protagonist goes by the name of Devan Rensburg, and essentially works under the radar to help those aboard the ship. Though he serves the captain of course, some of the errands Devan runs for the people on the ship may or may not entail him abiding by the rules. The game world of Herald portrays a contrast between the wealthy and less fortunate, which Devan finds himself caught between. "

Even if they lacked the Star Wars association they would still completely awesome experiences! That's what Impeller Studios is hoping for with the launch of their Kickstarter for Starfighter Inc. Although it cannot be X-Wing in name, it is most definitely channeling the spirit of X-Wing. Heck, original series designer David Wessman is on board alongside tons of other great team members."

Marcus Estrada writes: "Monsters' Den is a series with a history. Started in 2007, this web game spawned both Monsters' Den: The Book of Dread and Monsters' Den Chronicles. However, these were all browser titles. Now, developer Dan Stradwick is working on a downloadable entry in the series - Monsters' Den: Godfall. This release should keep fans happy with all the same great tactical RPG combat they already know and love, but with the ability to expand into an even larger experience. That's why he's taken to Kickstarter to finish development on the title."
