Kickstarter Megathread for Roguelikes and such
« on: May 01, 2013, 12:52:29 PM »
Be they full on literally or substantially inspired in spirit, here we shall semi-corral and discuss them all to come.   8)

Infinite Space 3: Sea of Stars

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/digital-eel/infinite-space-3-sea-of-stars

Quote
A three-dimensional follow-up to our classic indie space-roguelikes, Strange Adventures and Weird Worlds.

Funded, but not quite stretched.


Chasm

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/discordgames/chasm

Quote
Chasm is a 2D Fantasy ARPG Platformer featuring procedurally generated Metroid-like dungeons and authentic pixel art.

Updated Demo available!

Funded and stretched a bit, but the unreached goals are general targets for the future with sales and whatnot to come---so hope remains!

Amusing stretch goals include a more overt Roguelike Mode


C-Wars

Quote
What happens when Cyberpunk apocalypse roguelike meets RTS in pixel art? C-Wars!

TinyKeep is a 3D dungeon crawler for Windows and Mac, currently under development by programmer Phi Dinh. The game was originally inspired by classic roguelikes and RPGs such as Rogue, NetHack, Ultima IV, and boardgames like Hero Quest.

Darkwood

http://www.darkwoodgame.com/

Quote
Darkwood is a top-down, old school survival horror set in a procedurally generated, open world. It features RPG and roguelike elements, with intense combat and a eerie atmosphere. It's developed by 3 people, who like to call themselves Acid Wizard, and is currently in pre-alpha stage.

This one looks fairly interesting guys. A very different looking horror roguelike-like with permadeath and a random world. They're currently about 10% of the way funded, check it out!

FUNDED, with the first big stretch goal achieved!

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/defiant/hand-of-fate-a-card-game-that-comes-to-life

Quote
Hand of Fate is a card based roguelike, in which the player builds a collection of cards into a deck, which is then used to deal out the dungeon floors through which they adventure. Upon entering a combat, all of the cards the player has collected fly into their character's hands as fully modeled 3D assets, and combat begins.

While not really marketed as a roguelike, it seems kinda relevant.
