Dreamfall Chapters Kickstarter brings in $1.5M
Red Thread Games must have had a great weekend. The developer's Kickstarter for adventure game Dreamfall Chapters: The Longest Journey came to a close with $1,538,425 in funding. While not every stretch goal was reached, fans of the series were clearly eager for more. The extra money will go toward: Mac and Linux versions of Dreamfall Chapters; an in-game library with books and lore; more locations, characters, and stories; the House of All Worlds; an interactive graphic novel recapping the story so far; German and French language support with added dialogue; and the director's cut with a commentary track (love those!). Ports to iOS and Android as well as the content expansion known as "The Longest Journey Home" weren't funded, but Red Thread previously wrote that the latter is "a story we all want to tell, and we won't let it die." The team says it'll "still look into ways of making [it] a reality...some day." Did you know? You can now get daily or weekly email notifications when humans reply to your comments.
