Wing Commander creator Chris Roberts has issued the following call to action on the Facebook page for his upcoming PC open-world space combat and trading game Star Citizen:
Hi Chris Roberts here!
I would like to hit $1 million by 10 am PST Thursday.
So we need to raise $58,112 in the next 11 1/2 hours!
If make this target [sic] we’ll add 500 in game credits to all current backers ship packages as a little gift back to all the early supporters!
It could mean the difference between the basic targeting system and the multi-target tracking one!
Lets show the world that space sim fans mean business 🙂
Star Citizen amassed over US$800,000 of its US$2,000,000 minimum crowdfunding goal within 5 days of its unveiling at the 2012 Game Developers Conference Online last week. As of this writing, it has raised US$963,970. Crowdfunding for Star Citizen will end in 22 days. To back the game, visit the Star Citizen crowdfunding page.
