Stormgate was already fully funded—then it earned $2M on Kickstarter

The Kickstarter campaign for Frost Giant’s fledgling RTS Stormgate met its $100,000 goal in 15 minutes. It hit $1 million in under 48 hours. Now it’s crossed the $2 million line. But Stormgate isn’t a brand-new project: Its development was fully-funded prior to the crowdfunding campaign.

I recently spoke to Frost Giant communications director Gerald Villoria about the campaign, and why the company decided to go ahead with a crowdfunding campaign for a free-to-play game that was already privately funded through its early access release this summer.
