Star Citizen is a space simulation game that is being
developed by Cloud Imperium Games. In 2012 it was
published on Kickstarter with a funding goal of $500,000.
They ended making over $2 million dollars and decided to
continue crowd funding through their pledge system. They
offer in game ships for purchase on their website and as
of November 2014 they have raised over $62 million.
Features
The game will feature space flight, first person shooter
combat, and a persistent world. You will be able to go
where you want, do want you want, and be what you want.
The universe is left completely open to the player.
Development
Star Citizen has no set release date since all of the
funding comes from the community surrounding it. Its
individual modules will be released to backers once they
are ready for alpha testing. As of this moment, the hanger
and dog fighting modules have been released for testing.
The first person shooter combat and planet side modules
are still in development.
