Every day we see new Kickstarter campaigns launch; it’s a seemingly endless sea of games to back out there. After a while though, things start blending together, title images start looking the same when you’re looking at 40+ new campaigns launching every week. Highlands is different though. As I obsessively hit refresh on new campaign list Highlands from Burrito Studio gave me pause; the concept art had a very Maxfield Parrish vibe that I was drawn to. To learn more about Highlands I spoke with Burrito Studios’ Jonathan Ortega; here’s what he had to say. (Read More)

Every week we take a brief look at all of the Kickstarter campaigns that launched in the previous week. This isn’t to say that all of these projects are worth your hard earned cash, but with any luck having all of them in one place will make it easier to educate yourself on the projects you’d like to back, and which ones to run from.

A lot of game developers suggest that they are inspired by the works of people like Hayao Miyazaki of Studio Ghibli. Of course, when you suggest similarities to such an amazing animation studio it’s often hard to even come close. Burrito Studios’ upcoming game Highlands actually manages to look visually gorgeous – and create its own identity as well. The world of Highlands is hand-painted and shown from an isometric perspective to get a good look at your surroundings. (Read More)
