Released kickstarter games

I feel sad for the world. While great potential games don't reach their $50k budget in kickstarter, some dude made a kickstarter to make a potato salad, I think his budget was $10 or something, he's received like $60K so far as it made the news.

Unrest was released today, both in Steam and GOG. Is a RPG set in ancient India

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/pyrodactyl/unrest-an-unconventional-rpg-set-in-ancient-india

I added it to the list.

Scores so far are 6 and 7.I think that conclusion from paste magazine summarizes general opinion.

Unrest gets many essential elements right. It builds a unique world based on elements of ancient India, portraying a single conflict from different perspectives and putting players in shoes of the socially underprivileged. That makes the game’s failure to complement these successful features with effective role-playing systems come across as particularly disappointing. For a game that sets out with intent to include elements rarely embraced in games, Unrest comes across as an underwhelming mixture of a smartly constructed core without any layers to complement it.

Planetary annihilation has been released 5 days ago.It's unofficial sequel to Total annihilation and Supreme commander.I am honestly surprised how little attention it got considering it raised $2.2m on kickstarter and it's done by industry veterans.No reviews yet and most mainstream sites didn't even post that it's been released.

As for me I am backer but I didn't have time to play yet, I will most likely dive into it this weekend.

Edit: I read some comments and impressions and looks like game is still "raw" so I will wait for few patches.

Defense Grid 2 has just been released to backers via Steam.

Originally just a pledge/campaign for an expansion to Defense Grid, not only did the developers give us the promised expansion within a year's time, but they followed through with their desires to make a full-fledged sequel (despite tumultuous funding) and the promise to give it free to backers if/when that happens.

And that day is today :)

Probably my best Kickstarter experience so far.

Added Wasteland 2 to list.

I didn't add Defense grid 2 because I already added expansion back wehn it was released.Also only expansion was funded through KS, DG 2 was funded by investor(Steven Dengler again that guy is awesome).

And out of all game that just came out I been playing DG 2 most, still hellishly addictive.

Wasteland 2 is slight disappointment, while it is good I expected more.I guess I expected game of D:OS quality but that didn't happen.
