This week, The Hunt for the Golden Goober is still underway, Broken Ranks had a kidnapping don't worry, it was staged), and Into the Echo (image above) prepares to expand its lore while another MMO heads to the grave.
Indie MMORPG Genfanad, which released last year after a successful crowdfunding campaign, is reworking its core experience and expanding systems and content.
Inspired by classic MMORPGs and with a whole lot of tongue in cheek humor, Genfanad has officially launched following a successful Kickstarter campaign.
This week, we got news of several in-game and out-of-game events for September, I got my first hands-on look at Cinderstone Online, and the first of the end-of-month dev updates arrived.
Genfanad (derived from Generic Fantasy Adventure) is a retro, browser-based MMORPG designed as a lighthearted and humorous take on the genre. A Kickstarter campaign launched for the game yesterday and was fully funded in just six hours.
Each week, we scour the internet for all things indie MMO-related so you don't have to. This week, the weather isn't the only thing heating up, with many of our indie MMOs headed into Alpha or Beta Tests in the near future. There was also an insane number of patches and updates pushed out this week. With so much to cover, let's quit wasting time and start this week's Indie MMO Spotlight.
This week's Indie Spotlight shows off some new MMOs this week, with beta delays, games taking flight as well as videos. Lots and lots of videos.
