Over the weekend a Kickstarter campaign for a game called Alpha Colony ended and unfortunately for the developers they have missed their goal by a mere $28 dollars.

In this case the goal was $50,000.

Massive 16-bit retro RPG called Pier Solar HD reaches Kickstarter goal, could arrive on Android and OUYA

A massive retro-style 16-bit RPG called Pier Solar HD is up on Kickstarter looking for funding to finish the game. Originally designed for the Sega Mega Drive and Genesis as Pier Solar, this new HD version is slated for release on the Xbox 360, PC, Mac, Linux and the Dreamcast. Yes, that is correct, the Dreamcast. So why are we reporting on this? Because the Kickstarter project, which is fully funded, is less than $25,000 away from reaching its stretch goal which would bring Pier Solar HD to Android and OUYA with 5 days left to go.
