BMX, The Game?



If this is the first time you're hearing about this, check this link first.  To summarize, a team of indie developers are trying to create a BMX videogame, similar to EA Skate.  While it looks like they've gotten a good start on it already, they say they need more money to finish, which is why they started a Kickstarter page.  A lot of BMX heads are pretty skeptical about the whole thing.  I'm not really sure why they need more money to finish it when it looks like they have the software already to do it.  I understand it costs money to get it licensed to sell on the various platforms, but why not get more of it finished first, and show the world how good it really is...?

Even if you aren't into BMX, you might want to pay close attention to this.  If the BMX community can't even get a legit videogame together, will scootering ever be able to do so?

  2. A lot of BMX heads and companies are also greatly supporting the game. Licensing, publishing, marketing, distribution, it's pretty clear why an extremely small group of developers need more money. Especially if it's going to be across multiple platforms.
