Stainless Games Launches Kickstarter Campaign For Carmageddon: Reincarnation

Stainless Games, the developers behind Carmageddon: Reincarnation have announced they're launching a Kickstarter campaign to help fund the game. Carmageddon: Reincarnation will be a re-imagining of the original Carmaggedon from 1997, where you used your car as a weapon to cause destruction in order to earn points to win races. The campaign went live today, and as of this writing, the team's raised just under $60,000 of their $400,000 goal.

“Raising the funds through Kickstarter will mean that we keep complete control of the project and can make the game we know everyone wants to play – with no EVIL corporate investor or publisher telling us that we can’t run over old ladies or set fire to cows,” said Patrick Buckland, founder and CEO of Stainless Games.

The developer's promised that they'll stay true to Carmageddon's roots, "while adding a ton more over-the-top, outrageous content,” said Neil Barnden, co-founder of Stainless Games.

If you're on the fence as to whether or not you want to pledge to the Carmageddon: Reincarnation Kickstarter, Stainless is offering a wide variety of incentives to make sure you do.

If you pledge $15 or more you'll get a digital copy of Carmaggedon once it's released, which seems like the best deal. Things like posters, t-shirts, and more are all on the table for pledges. The big prize, for anyone who pledges more than $10,000 is a free trip to the UK to meet with the dev team and create a multiplayer character with your likeness.

Stainless Games have just 30 days to reach their goal, so head over to the Kickstarter page if you want to help out.
