Consortium: The Tower - Funding Failed

As expected the Kickstarter campaign for Consortium: The Tower has failed.

On behalf of everyone here at iDGi, THANK-YOU for your awesome support, encouragement and hard work spreading the word on our crowdfunding efforts so far!

We’ve learned a lot over the past few weeks, and gathered over 4400 of you who believe in what we’re trying to do with The Tower. We weren’t successful on Kickstarter, but this isn’t the end of the road. We’ve always said that no matter what this is a game that is going to get made, and that still holds true.

The Radical Plan?

So, what is our radical plan to save this campaign? Well - we were hoping to completely blow the lid open on the entire plan today, but unfortunately we aren’t allowed to just yet. The official announcement will be coming in a press release next week, but the gist is simple: The moment that the clock runs out here, this crowdfunding campaign will officially enter an intermission period. We have found a way to resume this campaign in just a few weeks’ time outside of Kickstarter or PayPal. You were the first supporters of The Tower, and as a special thank you we’ve got a bit of an extra treat.

Pledge now, you are eligible to become a SUPER BACKER…

Each and every one of you who has pledged at the Consortium Initiate level or higher on Kickstarter will not only be able to keep your pledge and rewards when the intermission period ends, but will eligible to become a SUPER BACKER with us.

What’s a Super Backer? It means that in the future all games released by iDGi in the Consortium Universe will be free for you. Forever. This will apply to all pledges made up until the ending of our Kickstarter campaign, so if you’re sitting at the $5.00 pledge, or on the fence about pledging, you’ve only got a limited time to take advantage of this. There will be some more information next week on how this will work from a technical standpoint.

We realize it may seem strange to back a campaign that isn’t going to succeed, but all will be revealed next week.

Thanks Eye.

More information.

Not sure what to think about the future plan, but IMO it's a shame the project didn't reach the goal.

I hope they reboot it or if the development got into some beta phase, go to Early Access.

We will find out later this week what is their plan they talked about.

Huh I asked to be reminded about this one on KS but never got a msg as time ran out.
Sure hope this game get's made and to me it's baffling there was not more pledges for something this interesting.

Plan B: Indiegogo?

I too have high hopes for this project. The first game was quite a bit "rough around the edges" but still very interesting and felt like it had a lot of potential. It would be a real shame if the story wasn't continued.

New KS update, they are moving to FIG, they will send an email when the campaign start for the super-backer offer.
