Weekly Launchpad. What Videogame Kickstarters Launched Oct 5th – 11th?

October 12th - via: cliqist.com
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)

It’s our first flagship title in development over at TouchTilt Games, based in Halifax, N.S., Canada, which is an open-world construction simulator for anyone to play. You can jump out of your trailer after you’ve customized your persona and immediately start building stuff – roads, sidewalks, traffic flow, residential and commercial residents, place town objects, dig and then manage the townsfolk you attract. (Read More)
