Hey y’all, I’m still on break, so no news post today, but I was politely and specifically asked to post this one thing, so I figured why not? ;) The folks at Broken Crown Games are gonna be working on an upcoming game called Escaping Titan which has to build a spaceship and fly it off Titan, which sounds sufficiently spacey to me. The neat thing, though, is that first, they’re launching a “Science Behind the Sci-Fi” panel, which is a “unique chance for gamers and scientists alike to get a behind-the-scenes glance on a games development by following PhDs scientist consultants as they discuss the science from their respective fields that will be translated into the final game content. ” Sounds nifty, right? I love the melding of actual science with sci-fi, so this sounds pretty cool. I’ll post the press release after the cut, and the panel has begun on their forums.
The second cool bit of news — and they let me have this as an exclusive, yay! — is that their first live appearance will be on March 15th at MegaCon in Orlando. That same day they’ll be launching a Kickstarter for their game, and they’ll have an “Early Bird Special” limited reward tier where you can get the game in its entirety for one freaking dollar. I’ve never seen a gaming Kickstarter that offered the GAME for $1, so I think that’s pretty dang cool. :) I figured that was cool enough to get its own post. ;) Again, happy new year folks, and I’ll keep you posted on more developments regarding this. :) Have an awesome day!
Press Release Right This Way!
