Disciples Of The Storm RTS Kickstarter to launch June 23rd
MAJOR UPDATE: Storm Isle Productions has confirmed matched funding from a game industry insider up of $50k if we can successfully reach our initial Kickstarter goal pushing us to $100,000 which will ensure that production can continue beyond the first release with features and content. However we will need the help of the old Netstorm and Kickstarter community to make the initial $50,000.
REMINDER: This Kickstarter begins Tuesday, June 23, 2015.
Storm Isle Productions Launches New Kickstarter Campaign
Following the success of being greenlit on Steam, my team at Storm Isle Productions is once again asking the faithful fans of Netstorm: Islands at War and fans of RTS games for help on our spiritual successor Disciples of the Storm.
After a year of regrouping and a solid focus on producing new content for DOTS, from unit models and new building designs, we are pleased to announce a re-launch on Kickstarter with the hopes that our new following from the Netstorm community and the greenlight on Steam will help push us forward to a successful Kickstarter.
During the Kickstarter, our developers will be releasing glimpses of new content that the team has been working on behind the scenes for the Kickstarter. Disciples of the Storm’s newly launched Kickstarter can be found https://www.kickstarter.com/projects...token=5d24dfeb
This Kickstarter will launch Tuesday, June 23rd, 2015.
What is Disciples of the Storm?
Disciples Of The Storm is a fast past RTS that sets players against each other in a bitter fight to the death in a kill or be killed fantasy world. Players will gain territory of shattered, floating islands as they seek to capture and slay the enemy tribe’s high priest while advancing their tribe toward their goal of total domination in an attempt to appease their god.
Construct temples along with attack and defense units from workshops, deploy a lattice of bridges linking the floating islands to gain more ground and resources forming the lifeblood of a player's expanding empire of islands.
Storm Isle Productions is an indie dev team from the East Coast with a solid group of talent. Talent such as the art directors from the original Netstorm: Islands at War, Morgan Ogburn and Beverly Garland (Beverly also worked on the Ultima series). They also brought in head coder, Nathan Fabian formerly from inXile Entertainment who worked on Torment: Tides of Numenera and a dedicated art team from Polywick Studios behind the animation and effect. NetStorm co-creator and founder of Kongregate, Jim Greer is also along for the ride.
