Here’s a good idea. 40,000 strong RPG community (wow, that’s huge) RPGCrossing.com is raising money for mental health through an Indiegogo campaign to get some Ork Glyph shirts made. Backing the project means you’re donating to charity, buying a t-shirt and getting access to a PDF bundle worth over $20. Check out the campaign here. […]
Short film: Code 8
This is more than a short film. This in an Indiegogo pitch from Arrow actor Stephen Amell, who was ex-producer for this and will be in the feature film in the role of the electrician once made. It’s funded already; in just two days. You can follow progress here. [Back this Campaign] In the short […]
Short film: Black Angel
Geek Native posts plenty of short films but this one is different. This film, shot in Scotland, was commissioned by George Lucas to be shown before Empire Strikes Back. The film had been lost for years, vanished when Rank Laboratories went down. This article from the BBC has more information on the loss and rediscovery. […]

Project New World is an attempt to create a transmedia work of fiction – a novel written by multiple authors at once and a comic book – set in a bleak post-apocalytpic setting.

Game of Quests applies RPG wisdom to fitness
I’ve a Fitbit in my pocket. It tells me that I’m pear shaped not because I spend too much time on the computer but because my calorie intake is too high. My version of the Fitbit doesn’t come with mind control and so we reach a stalemate. Game of Quests, launched on Indiegogo on flexible […]
Player Piano Indiegogos for great geeky piano music
Player Piano is responsible for one of my favourite YouTube creations of the year. They covered the Akira theme so well. Now they’ve given us a Tetris cover and asked for Indiegogo support. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NC8p5yo47JQ [Back this Campaign] This is a flexible funding so Player Piano don’t need to hit their target of $60,000 to cash […]

The world’s first family robot
This video for Jibo is impressive. Will it actually be this good? This could well be the first ever “family robot”. You have the chance to support it. You could say you have the chance to sow the seeds of the robot revolution. No downside to that, right? [Back this Campaign] There are 30 days […]
Impressive Akira Project trailer
The trailer is awesome but there is no movie. The Akira Project is a crowd-sourced, non-profit attempt to crate a trailer for a live action version of Akira. A live action version of the film is a nut that Hollywood is yet to crack but in July 2012 there was an Indiegogo campaign to draw […]
Help crowdfund Wil Wheaton’s Tabletop Season 3
[Back this Campaign] Geek & Sundry are after money to do a third season of their Tabletop Show. They’re after half a million. Wouldn’t you like half a million for your YouTube show? There’s a twist here. Geek & Sundry is funded by Google. Or rather, was. The Indiegogo is running because Wheaton and co […]
