5. No Money? No problem

Kickstarter gives beginning developers the chance to work on a game without the fear of it being a financial disaster. It's the perfect place for up-and-coming game designers to get that first boost.

4. You decide which games get made

Kickstarter gives gamers the ability to choose which games get made by letting them vote with their wallet. It's a completely transparent process that lets you support the ideas and creators you want to succeed.

3. More unique games

Gamers are presented with less and less choice each year, as major publishers put their money behind big franchises instead of taking risks. With fans acting as investors, developers can make truly unique games without having to defend their ideas to publishers.

2. Revival of old classics

Kickstarter is responsible for the revival of a lot of classic games. Franchises that are beloved by a small group of hardcore fans can continue or at least get a spiritual successor thanks to crowd funding.

1. It brings gamers and developers together

Kickstarter brings gamers and developers closer together by letting players offer input throughout the development process. It gives fans the chance to be part of the games they love and that's just great.
