The Black Glove, a surrealist, first-person, er, time-'em-up, has failed to reach its Kickstarter target. The game, made by former Irrational devs, needed $550,000 to secure its existence. Despite its unique premise, stylistic setting and Ken Levine seal-of-approval, it failed to raise even half of that total. (Read More)

Remember I told you about The Black Glove, a title that ex Irrational Games employees are looking to Kickstart? There’s 4 days to go before the cut-off, and they’ve only raised $157 000 out of the $550 000 goal – just 29%. They’ve recently added VR support and kicked off operation Save the Black Glove in an attempt to make their game a reality. (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. You’ll find two types of campaigns listed, “featured” and “the rest“. Featured campaigns are those that contain a significant amount of game information, are from known developers, or are significant in some other way. The rest of the games are usually smaller campaigns that are lacking in information, are from unknowns, have unanswered questions, or have not yet stood out for one reason or another. (Read More)

With so many games available to players it is pretty hard to stand out. And yet, The Black Glove has immediately gained attention thanks to its strangely unique premise. You play as the newest Curator to a theater. It sounds simple enough except for the fact that this theater is some unbelievable mishmash of 20s sensibilities, 80s arcade history, and a sense of dream logic to tie it all together. If the presentation feels anything like Bioshock to you it might be because Day for Night Games is comprised of many talented former Irrational Games employees. (Read More)
