Worlds of Magic , the self proclaimed successor of Master of Magic, has entered it's final 24 hour. Around 42k £ has been pledged so far (with KS and PayPal) with 7th faction and 20 additional creatures unlocked. If they reach 45k, 8th faction will be added and Mac & Linux versions will be available on release (instead of 6 months later). 50k seems unlikely but would unlock 9th and 10th faction. Shame modding toolset is at impossible 75k. Had this been on US KS, they probably would've reached that by now.

This is one of those Kickstarter projects you really should consider pledging additional 12£ (~19$/14€) (in addition to minimium 12£ level that gives you digital copy of the game) for all future WoM content as devs seem to plan lot of future DLC (more everything basically). You probably end up paying several times more for them otherwise.

Less than hour and half left for Worlds of Magic Kickstarter and pledges (total of KS and Paypal) standing around 46.5k £ meaning 3.5k £ is still needed for 9th and 10th faction stretch goal.

Aw, no one has mentioned Lewd -- a sci-fi erotic textual adventure, similar to choose-your-own-adventure erotica. ;)
For Shadowgate backers who pledged for the soundtrack, they're sended the e-mails with the downlaod link.

And the Stonehearth campaign is doing very well, in less than a week they're already funded and with 3 stretch goals achieved.

Seriously he wants 15k to basicly make something you can make with any of the hundreds of MUD codebases out there?

What gets me is he seems to think it's somehow original... I wish the people behind armageddon mud and khaosmud would post comments laughing at him...
Lords of Gossamer and Shadow: Diceless Role-Playing

I searched and couldn't find this mentioned. It's basically a re-imagining of Amber Diceless Roleplaying, creating a new universe which has similarities to Zelazny's Amber universe, and allows similar game play style, but without the copyright restrictions of the original, and with some streamlining of the rules.

The project is already funded ($19,788 of $1,000 at this time), but there are of course more stretch goals.
