Unknown Realm: The Siege Perilous Kickstarter Campaign Finished

The Kickstarter campaign for Unknown Realm: The Siege Perilous has been successfully funded. The final amount raised was $126,343, nearly doubling the original $65,536 goal.

Still, this puts the final sum slightly below the coveted $150,000 mark that promised the complete soundtrack by Chris Huelsbeck. To help with that, a late backer option has been announced, available through PayPal and Megafounder, promised to be up in a few days in what can be considered the campaign's first post-funding update.

Additionally, during the campaign's final day, a new $160,000 goal has been revealed. If late backers manage to reach this amount, the game will receive a German version. Here's a bit on that:

The big news is that we've decided to go all-in on a German version of Unknown Realm! We've had countless requests for this and despite the technical challenges, it is really something we've always wanted to do from the beginning. We've been working out the logistics for this behind the scenes over the last few weeks and have a plan to make this happen.

If we reach the German version stretch goal, all backers Digital Knight ($34) and above, will have the option to also get a digital copy of the PC German version (available approximately 6 months after the release of the English version). This version will also include digital copies of the manuals translated into German. Once the English version is shipped, we will open up pre-orders for a limited run of a German version C64 cartridge + physical manual "bonus pack" that you can add to your English version Ziplock bag or Collector's Edition box. We will release more details on this once we unlock that stretch goal.
