SOCOM spiritual successor H-Hour gets pre-alpha trailer
Pre-alpha action for H-Hour: World's Elite was shown off in trailer form today. The developer, SOF Studios, stressed that the tactical shooter hasn't been tuned or polished yet, so the smaller details seen in the teaser video are best viewed in a more forgiving light. The game comes from former SOCOM Creative Director David Sears, who earned $252,662 on Kickstarter in July 2013 to develop what he called a "spiritual successor" to the series. H-Hour: World's Elite is a team-based PC and PS4 game, and as such it will feature community and clan management support. The multiplayer shooter is currently aiming to enter its beta program in July 2014, launching in full on PC in January 2015, according to the reward tiers on its Kickstarter page.
Crowdfund Bookie, July 7 - 13: H-Hour, The St. Christopher's School Lockdown
The Crowdfund Bookie crunches data from select successful Kickstarter and Indiegogo campaigns that ended during the week and produces pretty charts for you to look at. This week in crowdfunding, the Kickstarter campaigns for H-Hour: World's Elite, The St. Christopher's School Lockdown and Clash of the Monsters drew to a close. With only three games on the list, it was certainly a slow closing week in crowdfunding. The week was led by H-Hour: World's Elite, a spiritual successor to the SOCOM series from former Creative Director David Sears, which earned the most money this week ($252,662), had the most backers (2,772) and highest average pledge per person ($91.15). Check out the results and our fancy charts after the break.
