Interesting kickstarter from former contributors to Bioshock Infinite...

Welcome to The Equinox, an eerie 1920s theatre that appears unstuck from conventional reality. A venue pervaded by weird dream logic, inexplicable holes in space, unshielded x-ray art installations, and tasteful use of crushed velvet.

Not doing too well on Kickstarter, interesting article about that here:

I wonder if Kickstarter is being used for the wrong purposes with games, and there should perhaps be some kind of alternative. It seems to me a lot of developers are using it as a sort of pre-order system, where the pre-orders fund the development.

Maybe if there was a new crowd funding site for gaming, where they listed a minimum set of features, a shipping date, and then people pre-ordered on that site, with them getting the pre-order money when they shipped a product on that date with the set of features, otherwise they didn't, that would be a better idea.
