The IndieGoGo campaign to fund Zero G Fighter has come to a close.
What is Zero G Fighter?
ZGF is an Arcade style, 2D, top down, physics based, space combat game! Pilot your ship through hazardous environments using thrusters to maneuver safely around debris and space objects while fighting off an alien horde.
Wanna see ZGF in action? (Of course you do.)
The Story So Far
My name is Justin, I develop games and my latest project, Zero G Fighter, is only a month or two from being complete and I can't wait to share it with the world. Basically, I am raising funds to get the launch pad ready.
Funds raised will support the following
-
Music Licensing. I can draw, I can code, but I cannot compose music. So, the first priority for funds raised will go to purchasing licenses for several pulse pounding sci-fi tracks to complement the game.
-
Website Hosting. ZGF is going to need a website where folks can see and purchase my Games. Funds from this campaign will keep a website running for quite some time.
-
Initial Setup Costs. Becoming an official business is not free and this is an essential step to make sure my business is registered properly to protect myself and my work.
-
Marketing and Advertising. Even a small investment into marketing and advertising a game can greatly increase it's chances of selling well.
-
Additional In Game Content. ZGF is already content complete but bonus content would be added if time and budget permits.
-
Software Licensing. Additional software modules would allow me to port ZGF to additional platforms such as Mac, Xbox, and Playstation.
Risks & Challenges

The risks associated with this venture are few:
-
Getting blown up in outer space.
- No one has ever heard of me. So, brand awareness is a challenge
- It could fail to get noticed in a flooded video game marketplace.
- It could fail to sell.
But there are some significant positives:
- Zero G Fighter, is very close to completion.
- Zero G Fighter is going to launch no matter what.
- Donations $5.00 and above will receive a DRM free copy of the game no matter what.
- Aliens will flee in terror from your space piloting prowess.
