If you, like me, love the SimCity series but doesn't want to get the newest release for whatever reason, here's an alternative that looks to become pretty awesome:

Meanwhile...

First episode of Tropes vs. Women is released

Posting this here because there are no recent Roman5 threads and I don't feel like bumping an oldie to ask him how he prefers his crow.

First post does not seem up to date, so there is a good chance this has been mentioned before, but anyway:

I did not know this comic before, but it looks like it could be pretty good. Does someone else know it? I'll have a closer look once I get home.

Richard Garriott's new project:

It's worth noting, that the pledges are rather high, with a digital download of the game at $25 - and it's early bird only with about 3000 possible entries left!
If you miss that, the next pledge that get's you the game is at $40. So anyone interested - better hurry.

For all those that haven't seen it yet, Dreamfall Chapters is on its final home stretch. Check it out on Kickstarter.com .
There are just 40 hours to go if you haven't backed yet.
The two predecessors are available here - The Longest Journey and Dreamfall.

Drake the Dragon Wargame has come to Kickstarter:
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/agm/drake-the-dragon-wargame

Already over the $1K point after only going live for 10 mins and 1/10 of the way to its funding goal with some great stretch goals to aim for right after!

A great new tabletop wargame for anyone who really loves dragons - or heck get some dragon models to collect and paint or use for that DnD quest RPG

edit - over the $2K point now

Did they bridge the gap between the $25 and $50 Tier?. No option to add soundtrack separately last time i checked...so cancelled my pledge

I'm going broke with all these kickstarters. I sure hope they keep the 3 months in between each game being released or I am going to go insane keeping up with three games. Please no more RPG Kickstarters, I can't afford to back anymore.
Project Eternity - Apr 2014
Torment: Tides of Numenera - Dec 2014
Shroud of the Avatar - Oct 2014

Judging from the KS description it is sounding like his game is going to have a lot of DLC, which kind of makes me second guess supporting the project. Some of his more expensive KS tiers ($500+) give you free rent for a house. Hopefully, this is either an unneeded add on or you can use in game loot recovered from quests.

If no one has mentioned it, Ominous looks like a nice RPG kickstarter to fund.

Set a very low goal of 500 dollars for the basics of the game, so if it gets funded, more features like voice acting and more customization can added on as stretch goals.

Drake already breached their $10K minimum and are well past $16K all within the first day of going live on KS! At this rate their first hidden stretch goals ($18K) will be revealed before long

I am considering retracting my pledge for Torment to pledge for this instead:

The Reward - Tales of Alethrion

99 Spirits IndieGoGo campaign reached its goal two days ago. It's currently at 105% and has six more days to go.

Thank you all so much for all the support!

Thats an excellent find mate. Awesome short film :). I might actually back
