The new project of the author XCOM was funded in a week
The Phoenix Point tactical strategy of XCOM creator Julian Gollop raised the required $500 thousand in 7 days on the crowdfunding platform Fig.
More than half of the required budget was raised on the day of the start of the fees on April 25.
After collecting the principal amount, the first additional goals were opened in the campaign: controlled transport and a flying fortress with a set of $ 650 thousand and $ 850 thousand.
Crowdfunding fees for Phoenix Point will last until June 8.
While working on Phoenix Point, we are inspired by the entire XCOM series, using both my ideas from UFO: Enemy Unknown and X-COM: Apocalypse, and brilliant developments from the relaunch of the franchise by Firaxis Games studio.
