The studios that will receive a portion of that one hundred million dollars include Thunder Lotus (), Night School Studios (, ) and Sabotage Studio ().

Yay! New games from the makers of The Messenger and Spiritfarer? Yes please! I was just wondering yesterday what the developers of The Messenger might be up to! Sabotage Studios did a Kickstarter for their new game Sea of Stars, which is a prequel to The Messenger. I just got a backer update that the Kowloon Nights partnership is allowing them self-publish. This seems incredibly generous if not expecting any sort of control and it’s essentially a loan (they can still self publish also). These guys are essentially the Tom Nook of video games funding. The other article mentions no timetable on recoupment ( ie it’s not necessarily the first X amount of revenue that goes to the funder) and flexible payment terms (wonder if this includes interest). One of the funded games is called CODENAME SÜSSKARTOFFEL. Sounds like a mouthful! Leave A Comment Hold on there, you need to to post a comment...
