Kickstarter


Adventures of Pip’s second Kickstarter campaign is a success. Total donations crossed the $40,000 mark just a couple of moments ago. As such, Adventures of Pip is now guaranteed for Wii U.

There’s still a little over a week remaining in Adventures of Pip’s Kickstarter. That doesn’t leave too much time for stretch goals, but a notable one lies ahead at $70,000 – “Game+ Mode”.

You can check out the Adventures of Pip Kickstarter here.

Hive Jump isn’t the only Wii U-related Kickstarter to have met its funding goal today. Just like Hive Jump, A Rite from the Stars reached its target with about a day left in the campaign.

Risin’ Goat said of the game’s Kickstarter success:

We… have… made… it! No! You have made it. Thanks a lot, tribe! You have made possible for Kirm to become a man. Or at least to try it because it will not be an easy path…

You can find more information on A Rite from the Stars’ Kickstarter page here.

Hive Jump has successfully reached its funding goal on Kickstarter. With less than 40 hours remaining, the campaign managed to reach the $50,000 mark. That means Graphite Lab will be bringing Hive Jump to Wii U sometime in the future.

For those who haven’t heard of Hive Jump previously, it’s a sci-fi action platformer featuring run-and-gun gameplay with strategic campaigns. It supports up to four players.

TicToc Games has officially relaunched the Kickstarter for Adventures of Pip. The new campaign can be found here.

TicToc’s original Kickstarter campaign required $90,000 to reach its funding goal. This time around, however, only $40,000 is needed.

Adventures of Pip will come to Wii U if funded.

The team behind Night Trap ReVamped seemed dead set against bringing their game to Wii U. In the explanation, it was said that there was “too much bad blood” with Nintendo based on events that took place two decades ago.

Given fan feedback though, it now seems that the folks behind Night Trap ReVamped have now reconsidered the situation. And, believe it or not, they’re applying to become Wii U developers and publishers.

Here’s an excerpt from today’s Kickstarter post:
