KickTraq

A big part of why people back a game on Kickstarter is to get access to the many perks associated with helping a game come full circle. One of the perks people look the most forward too (and often give the most money for) is early access to the games they back. However, as we all know, a good portion of Early Access is done on Steam; and Steam’s Early Access program can be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on how it’s used. Unfortunately for some backers, Jagged Alliance: Flashback is one of those cases of a bad Early Access experience. (Read More)

It’s been almost a year since Jagged Alliance: Flashback hit Kickstarter and collected nearly $370,000 of everyone’s money. So how’s it going for this reboot of the turn based strategy classic? Slow, but steady! (Read More)

Pardon our tardiness. This week has been chock full of Xbox One related happenings. As a result the flood of information has left us in a state of exhaustion. We did happen upon a few fabulous new additions to our first double digit Kickstarter Spotlight article. That’s right, two and a half months worth of great projects that are trying to raise capitol to self publish games that larger publishers, for some reason, won’t touch with a nine foot pole. Which is confounding because, in general, publishers are more open to new ideas at the beginning of a console generation. It’s also looking like indie developers won’t be self publishing to Microsoft’s Xbox One console. So it’s a good thing crowdfunding is alive and well. Let’s clear the dark clouds away with a bit of sunshine. This week we’re all over the place genre-wise with our first MOBA as well as TBS, and side scrolling mayhem. (Read More)

Dear Backers, We have been happy with the general reception of the Diorama scene and the general art style. We know it won’t make _everyone_ happy, but we really want to give Flashback a visual identity and art style. Not too comic, not too photo... (Read More)

Museums like to use the phrase “frozen in time” to describe dinosaur bones and stuffed dead things, but in the case of Jagged Alliance: Flashback, the term’s not a euphemism from “dead.” Far from it! The gang behind the still-running Kickstarter have released what they call a “gameplay scene”—imagine you’ve hit a pause button mid-battle, enabling you to explore the scene without fear of getting pulverized. And if movement’s not your thing, there are some handy screenshots available as well. (Read More)

Full Control is in a precarious position with the “reset” of the Jagged Alliance series, but who better to reel the series back to it’s TBS roots? Thomas Lund leads the team at Full Control once more onto the breach with the studios most ambitious project to date. The Danish developer is no stranger to the TBS genre. In fact, the bulk of their portfolio rests in roguelike territory. Thomas was kind enough to grant us clearance to gather more information about Jagged Alliance: Flashback. (Read More)

Since 1994 Jagged Alliance has seen more installments to it’s long running series than I have fingers.

You’re sitting there thinking to yourself “But what is Jagged Alliance: Flashback?” It’s a fair enough question, and nobody around you seems to have an answer.

Jagged Alliance: Flashback arrives in the Katchup this week. I’ve expected (and hoped for) a Jagged Alliance crowdfunding attempt for some time now. As soon as it became obvious that Kickstarter was a place where old franchises could revive themselves, every week that the mercenaries didn’t appear was slightly more unsettling than the last. Would I rather have a direct sequel without a crowdfunding campaign? Perhaps. (Read More)
