No Matter Studios, the independent developer, announced its Kickstarter Campaign for its upcoming action survival game, Prey for the Gods will no longer need to hit the $600,000 stretch to get a console release.
The game has currently raised over $295,000 of its $300,000 goal with 11 days remaining. If successfully funded the game will release on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Windows PC via Steam.
"Prey for the Gods is running and playable on PS4 and Xbox One," said the developer in an update on Kickstarter. "We figured this was going to be incredibly difficult to pull off. Initially, we put that stretch goal at $600K so we could hire people to offload Tim's work allowing him to focus on consoles.
"However, we had to respond to the outcry from fans as people were pledging substantial amounts, without even a working computer, just for the chance that we'd hit a stretch goal. So we took it upon ourselves last week to shift our priorities and focus on getting the game to run on consoles. We were surprised and incredibly excited by the results. Within days, we had them playable and running @30 FPS, un-optimized! At that time, we knew we needed to take another look at our stretch goals. We also took this time to be a little more explicit with how we intend to use the funds. Namely, showing that we wish to hire an in-house animator and in-house world builder. We were also able to squeeze in Mac/Steam!!"
