Short Summary

Lunar Blast Interactive was established in February 2012, and we started working on our first game, Dark Spiral, in October of 2013. We're almost ready to enter the Alpha stages of development, where we'll be creating the music, in-game art, and start constructing the game in the engine.

We've reached a point of development, however, where it would be very difficult to continue without proper funding.

Dark Spiral is a first person sci-fi RPG set in an authentic universe, featuring rich and believable backstory and history, unique NPCs with personalities, and interesting weapons and abilities.

What We Need & What You Get

What will we use the funding for? Well:

  • $3500 will go towards the team, paying bonuses for the work they've completed so far
  • $300 will go towards setting the studio up
  • $1200 will go towards software we need for development
  • Any extra money we raise will go towards salaries and marketing, split 75/25
So, why should you donate? What do you get? Well:
  • $15 gets you the finished game upon completion (digital)
  • $30 gets you the Digital Deluxe edition, featuring a digital artbook, the game soundtrack, Dark Spiral wallpapers, and a graphic novel set in the Dark Spiral universe
  • $50 gives you access to all future Dark Spiral content (Expansion Packs) for free, as well as the Digital Deluxe edition of the game.
  • $75 gets your name in the credits of the game, under "Special Thanks", as well as the previous tier award.  Also opts you in for the Beta of Dark Spiral
  • $125 opts you in for the Alpha of Dark Spiral
  • $250 gives you a chance to write a side-quest for the game. Discuss with the Lead Writer and create a unique quest that appears in the final game! Quests subject to approval. Also gets you 2 copies of the Digital Deluxe edition of Dark Spiral
  • $500 gets your face in the game as an NPC! Our Character Artist will sculpt your face from 3 reference images and lets you become a NPC somewhere in the game. Also gets you 3 copies of the Digital Deluxe edition of Dark Spiral
  • $750 gains you access to ALL future game content created by Lunar Blast Interactive, including games, expansion packs, DLC, and everything in between!
  • $1000 allows you to voice an important character in Dark Spiral! Microphone audio quality subject to approval. Includes the previous tier award
  • $2500 gets your name in the credits as an Executive Producer of Dark Spiral. Includes the $750 tier award
  • $5000 gets your face in EVERY game we produce! That's right, become an important NPC in every game we ever produce. We'll even create a unique model for every game, if your appearance changes!
  • $10,000 gets your name on the Lunar Blast Interactive website forever, puts your name in the credits of all of our games (as an Executive Producer), gains you access to all content produced by Lunar Blast Interactive, and lets you pitch your game, quest, or character ideas whenever you like. Hell, become an honorary member of Lunar Blast Interactive if you want!
So, what happens if we don't meet our funding requirement? Well, as you saw, we're opting for flexible funding, simply because any money we receive will help us greatly. Even if we don't reach our $10,000 goal, we'll still be able to do something with it.

The Impact

Lunar Blast Interactive is a relatively new indie game developer, and as such we don't really have a fanbase yet. We want to deliver quality games to the gaming community, and we want to do something far too developer do: listen.

We aim to listen to what our community and fans want, and be more involved with them than your average developer. We're open to e-mail conversations, ideas, suggestions, requests, complaints, or what-have-you's. If we do something that you don't like, we'll change it. If we do something you do like, we'll improve on it and bring it back better.

Our main focus is role-playing games with deep stories, realistic dialogue with characters with unique personalities, interesting and fun gameplay, immersive experiences, and ambitious new ideas.

If this campaign succeeds, we'll be able to make our dreams a reality, and deliver quality, immersive games to you. Even if the project fails to make any money, we'll still push on and deliver, but it will be harder, if not nearly impossible.

We're not in the industry for money, we're here because all of us have a passion for gaming and game development, and as such our games will never be overpriced. We'll ask the community what they think the price should be, and listen to their advice.

Other Ways You Can Help

Can't contribute? Don't worry, we still love you! If you want to help out, but can't donate, share the IndieGoGo campaign everywhere you can. Facebook, Reddit, Twitter, forums, your local bar & grill, or simply to your friends.

Anything helps!
