Ah, okay, so here’s the scoop. Picture this: Resolute Games, this crew with a wild dream, decided to throw their hats in the crowdfunding ring. Yep, they launched this campaign not too long ago—like, late last month—to get some serious mojo going for a VRMMO called Eldramoor: Haven in the Mist. And here’s the kicker—they blew past the $100,000 mark. Woosh! Just like that. No brakes, just full speed ahead.
I stumbled over their campaign, right? Launch day was June 24th. They kinda want to recapture the magic of Orbus VR, which recently, and quite sadly, went poof. So here’s the thing, Resolute Games is built by these ex-Orbus players who thought, “Why not? Let’s do our own thing.” Fast forward about 1.5 hours after hitting “go,” and they’re already celebrating like they won the lottery. Met their “all or nothing” goal of $25,000 with the intensity of a caffeine-fueled squirrel. Honestly a bit low, considering they’re promising a lot—classes, quests, you name it.
Back before this mad dash even started, Lynn M. Souza, the mastermind behind it all, talked about this “same initial goal as Zenith.” Smart move? Maybe. Trying to ride that early victory wave.
Oh, and they have these stretch goals. Like who doesn’t love a curveball, right? Stuff like a Bonfire healing system and even Earth and Air abilities. And get this—new species to play as and some sort of guest access for player housing. My brain is buzzing just thinking about it.
And, don’t even start me on these pets they’re hyping up. At $125,000, we unlock pet abilities. But wait—these aren’t your typical fluffy tag-alongs. They’re more like partners in crime, ready to jump into the fray with some special tricks up their furry sleeves.
Anyway, Eldramoor is aiming to hit Quest 3 and SteamVR headsets by late 2026, which feels like ages away. Meanwhile, they’ve got until July 24th to reel in more backers. If you’re curious (or nosy like me), there’s all the info you’d ever need on their Kickstarter. Now, where was I? Oh, right, still trying to wrap my head around all these stretch goals…
