Fable Fortune Kickstarter axed, but development will continue

MCV Staff 22nd June 2016 Business News

The crowdfunding push for free-to-play card game Fable Fortune has been cancelled.

But the game, from former Lionhead developers Flaming Fowl Studios, will still see the light of day.

In a post on the Fable Fortune’s Kickstarter page announcing the cancelation, the studio said that it had secured additional development funding.

Furthermore, the game will be launching on Steam, with a closed beta ‘as quickly as possible’.

The project launched in Kickstarter on May 31st. At the time of its cancellation, the game had raised 58,852 of its 250,000 goal.

Fable Fortune is another title in the increasingly popular digital collectible card game genre. As well as sector behemoth Hearthstone, from Blizzard, CD Projekt RED recently announced that its Witcher 3 CCG Gwent would be getting a standalone release. That’s on top of Bethesda’s The Elder Scrolls Legends game.

[Industry news] Core Keeper’s ancient Core becomes a one of a kind gaming PC, to be won for charity

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games. Every entry raises money for that work.
