SpaceVenture, my biggest Kickstarter disappointment

This has been brewing for some time now. This is a write up of a Kickstarter project, undelivered to this date, in the making for a bit over 5-years now. To be more in fact, it passed its 5-year anniversary on June 12th, 2017, making the original point of being successfully funded in now so distant 2012. The project in question managed to raise $530k, that is over half a million dollars, and yet, it's not yet done. I am talking about my biggest disappointment in crowdfunding, the SpaceVenture-project by the former Space Quest-developers Mark Crowe and Scott Murphy.

Let me give some history here. Back in the day, the Two Guys From Andromeda, that is Murphy and Crowe, broke up after Space Quest 4. They both were individually involved in the two later SQ games, Crowe on SQ5 and Murphy on SQ6, but they never did work together, as they had fallen out and didn't come along together at that time. To everyone's surprise, the spat that lasted nearly two decades was put aside on 20…

The New Grolier Multimedia Encyclopedia

Back in the early '90s, when CD-ROM drives, which have ages ago faded away from computers from the way of DVD and Blu-ray drives, heralded an age of multimedia. This technology that had finally begun to find its way to consumer computers offered means of providing previously unparalleled amounts of data for the common computer users, especially in the contrast of ages dead format of floppy disks. While the format itself had already been introduced back in 1982, it took its time to become cheap enough to finally push itself through.

I can't rightfully say what the discussion around CD-ROM as a format was back in the 1980s, as I was pretty young back then and didn't really follow nor was I even aware of such mediums beyond floppies or cassette tapes. CD-ROMS were just some tech that was at times featured as a tech flavour in movies like James Bond (I think it was featured at least on License to Kill, even as a writable format when Bond copies files to disc), but other than …

Shroud of the Avatar: Forsaken Virtues (2018)

Shroud of the Avatar: Forsaken Virtues (2018), published and developed by Portalarium Inc.

The last time I checked Shroud of the Avatar, Richard Garriott of Ultima-fame helmed project, the game was in early access. The free trial period it had going on, didn't convince me to buy the game, as it was very, very raw around everywhere. And now, in 2019, you won't have to buy the game anymore, as it has gone to the way of free to play. What this basically means is, that you can play the game in either single player or online for free. It also is out from early access, so how does it fare now. Did time improve what seemed somewhat promising, but very broken the last time I looked at it in 2017?

The short answer is no.

As I tried the MMO part of the game in early access, I thought it would be more interesting to see how the game works in singleplayer mode, as I was rather interested in seeing how the gameworld would change when you play it without other people and the buildings and …
