Forge devs announce "kick-finish" campaign for fantasy multiplayer game

The developers behind the upcoming fantasy multiplayer game, Forge, have announced that they're launching a "kick-finish" campaign on Kickstarter to give fans a chance to pre-order the game and get it finished on schedule.

The image on the front of their Kickstarter video alone is enough to convince us to fund the project. It's got flaming mages, armored battle bears, and what appears to be a mixture of both. If there are flaming mage battle bears we're giving this game a 10/10.

They've got a long way to go to their funding goal though, but there's a lot of time left in the campaign. We'll be very interested to see if this will end up netting Dark Vale Games an end-of-project cash infusion. With that said, they've stated that the game will be coming out regardless of the success of the Kickstarter, so that would just be icing on the cake for them. You can check out the Kickstarter video below.
