We love celebrating wins around the Ranch and today has been exciting for multiple reasons (more on that in the next blog post :))! Long-time Tech Ranch® company, Art & Craft Entertainment, launched a Kickstarter campaign for their new game, Crowfall.
While I may not understand everything about the gaming industry, I DO understand what a successful fundraising campaign looks like. Crowfall’s Kickstarter campaign opened at 8 AM this morning and by 10 AM had raised over $200K. As I’m writing this the number continues to tick upwards, just hitting $350K in the last 10 minutes.
According to Creative Director, J. Todd Coleman,
“Crowfall is a new type of online gaming experience. Our goal with Crowfall is to create a game that feels more visceral, more immersive…We want thousands of people to take the role of warriors, nobles, crafters, assassins, mercenaries…and then co-operate and compete in a virtual ‘game of thrones’.
Basically, we are trying to build a living, breathing simulation of a fantasy World.”
This marks a huge milestone for the company that has been preparing the launch of the campaign for months. From the Tech Ranch® perspective, we’ve been watching them slowly take over more and more space in the northwest corner of our new office and we could tell that something big was on the horizon. We encourage you to support them in their mission to reach $800K by visiting their Kickstarter page and sharing their campaign information with others!
