It’s been a while since we last did a Back to Back! So let’s find out: what’s new in the world of indie RPG crowdfunding? The casualty rate on campaigns from our last edition was incredibly high, with only Data Hacker: Corruption, Hyper Light Drifter, and Lords of Xulima meeting their funding goals. Ambrov X, Aurion: Legacy of […]

From our last back to back, Project Phoenix , Steel and Steam Episode 1, AdventurOS and Sword ‘n’ Board hit their funding goals. Valgard’s Fate, unfortunately, was evidently not fated to succeed. Here is the newest crop of games seeking funding–and an unexpectedly numerous one, too:

Howdy folks! The approach of PAX has made it rather difficult for me to keep the site updated over the past couple of weeks; moreover, I’m definitely going to be gone for a week starting Wednesday. But with that said, there’s no reason we can’t do a quick update on the state of crowdfunded RPGs, […]

I have a big backlog of new games to talk about, but it’s been nearly a month since I last ran Back to Back, so those will have to wait until next week as I peek in on the world of crowdfunding. A number of games from our last line-up have completed their campaigns. Unrest […]

Looking back on the campaigns that ended since we ran our last Back to Back, Tinykeep made its goal, as did Stonehearth and Ghost of a Tale. Sadly, Reobirth: Magic’s Awakening did not, nor did Remnants of Twilight. Going down to an especially disastrous defeat was TBT: The Black Tower, with less than 1% of […]

Back to Back is back! Welcome, you know, back. Glancing over the campaigns that have ended since our last edition, Chasm succeeded admirably while Lex Laser, Wranglers and Paradigm Shift each fell short. The current round-up contains both returning projects and some fresh blood: Ghost of a Tale — a beautiful 3D action RPG with […]

Greetings, indie RPG enthusiasts, and welcome to another wonderful week of supporting RPGs developed by big-hearted, small-staffed teams! I’ve done a bit of peeking around on Kickstarter and Indiegogo, and it looks like there are some new, interesting projects on the horizon. For your edification: Chasm — this is “a 2D Fantasy ARPG Platformer featuring procedurally […]

There’s been a bit of a lull in people emailing me about their RPGs this past week, which can only mean one thing: it’s time for another Back to Back! Every single game that was on last list remains available to fund, though most are approaching the end of their campaigns. Here’s the update, with […]

It’s a slow news day today; you know what that means! It’s time for another edition of Back to Back, where we look at indie RPGs currently up for funding on Kickstarter. (Besides, it’s been a few weeks since we ran one of these.) From our last list, Cryamore, Terra Incognita and Delver’s Drop succeeded […]

Back to Back returns once more! I did a little investigation to see what happened to some of the games listed in our last Back to Back. So far, good news: Fortis Rex, Data Hacker Initiation and Halfling Wars each ended their campaigns successfully, while the remaining games are Indiegogo titles that simply haven’t ended […]
