7 Geek Projects From Arizona To Help Crowdfund
Local creatives are awesome, especially when they’re geeks. I like supporting them – it makes me feel good.
The easiest way to help these days seems to be the Kickstarter craze. (Hey, that rhymed!) I’ve never used it – well, never funded anything from it – but it seems to be a pretty effective thing for a lot of people.
And so, I give you a handful of local, geek-centric projects that you can drop a fiver on (or more) then beam with pride the rest of the day for helping.
Some are impressive, some fun looking, but they all claim to be from The AZ.
- This web series from Phoenix wants to breath new life into the zombie genre.
- (Ba-dum – tshh!)
- Actually stars Zarek from Battlestar Galactica.
- The mad geniuses behind Mesa based Kingdom of Loathing have a new game!
- This one’s a word based RPG, and is almost completely funded – over $70k as of right now.
- Even if you can’t help with this one, you should at least watch the video.
- (It’s pretty great.)
Ashes of Seraphim by Michael Peterson
- An extremely dark short fantasy film.
- Looks pretty sword-wieldy.
- Perfect for you monster fans.
Void Rim: A Multiplayer, Turn-Based Strategy Game by Desert Owl Games
- It’s hard to describe this one without bringing up StarCraft.
