lowyhong: OP updated.
Latest additions

Pretty sure I didn't miss anything this time round. There are several board game and tabletop projects that had been mentioned over the last few weeks, but those didn't catch my attention, and I wasn't able to properly find out more about them due to hectic work schedules. I've got a bit more free time this week though, so I've added those that look promising (informative campaigns, developers with solid track records, active promotion on BGG, etc). A few are ending (see the updates list), so if those catch your fancy, better back them before their deadlines.
Thanks for your updates as usual mate :)

Thanks for the update, would just like to mention a couple that didn't make it:

Theme Park Studio - Create the Ultimate Theme Park! (May 20)
Ending soon, but a likely must for Theme ParkRollercoaster Tycoon fans, with 3 versions on offer (depending on how much customisation you want). A DRM query to Pantera elicited the response "I doubt it will have drm..".

The Kingsport Cases (Jun 2)
Lovecraftian, detective, procedural - just one of these should mark this as being one to watch. They did promise a DRM-free release in response to my query and have a alpha build for public download.

Ok I added Theme Park Studio as well.

Been watching this one for a while. I also contacted them about DRM and their reply was that they are planning to distribute a DRM free version but couldn't/wouldn't guarantee they would.

I don't know, but it bothered me, especially since they're meant to be so close to release.
I don't think anyone has posted about it yet...

Spintires, an offroad driving game looks bloody awesome. Never before have I seen such such an impressive terrain deformation system.

There's a demo, too!

Possibly because of potential publishing arrangements or limitations due to winning money from Intel.

Me too - I did consider a pledge/withdraw but instead pledged at a lower level that I would have. Just hope it doesn't go Shadowrun-Returns-shaped...

Since Shadow of the Eternals has had a few so-so mentions, it seems probably fair to highlight their latest update where Denis Dyack responds to the Kotaku article mentioned previously. It's YouTube (so I've not seen it, won't install Flash) but the feeling from the comments is that it's not as convincing as it needs to be.

Plays fine for me on Firefox (well, Pale Moon) with Flash turned off.
