While System Shock 3 is in development, the original developers of the game are happy to hear about this remake. Fans of the original games will be happy to experience the title with updated textures and effects. Additionally, fans will be glad to hear that members of the original team, as well as voice actors, have helped with this project. And System Shock is doing that right.This remake includes both the first and second System Shock.

The best way to create that trust is simple: actual gameplay. If the consumer doesn’t feel that you can deliver on your promises, than they won’t give you money. The main goal of a successful Kickstarter is creating a sense of trust in the consumer so that they’ll back your game. More developers should go a similar route. There’s more than just some concept art and a prerendered trailer, but an actual tangible game with combat, animations, and demonstrations of the various systems at play. Being able to play the first ten minutes of the game ( which I recommend, by the way) does a lot to prove what the developers are capable of.


This week’s biggest new Kickstarter, a remake of the classic PC shooter System Shock, has managed to sidestep most of the problems with Kickstarter games by releasing a demo.īy releasing a demo, even a pre-alpha proof of concept, System Shock puts itself miles above many Kickstarters. Currently the most popular online crowdfunding platform, it’s been used to great indie hits like Broken Age, Undertale, and Hyper Light Drifter - but it’s also been involved in some pretty huge flops as well, like the recent Mighty No. Kickstarter as a whole has a ton of potential and huge implications for the future of gaming.
