If It Gains $900,000 We Could See A Video Game Version Of Apocalyps...

Not surprised to see how similar AAA game development is to Hollywood and their movie making magic, the creator of Apocalypse Now has followed the masses to Kickstarter in the hopes that the people agree with his vision of a video game adaption of the classic film. Francis Ford Coppola is now on Kickstarter pitching his idea for a video game based on his 40 year old masterpiece. Hoping to have it take place within the timeframe of the movie, he says it's more about making sure you're not killed, as opposed to doing the killing yourself. Until you're pushed for it, anyway.

Throwing you into the shoes of Captain Willard in the height of the Vietnam war, Francis Ford Coppola went against the advice of the big-name publishers who told him to license out and abuse the famous name for a quick mobile tie-in and banded together those who shared the idea of making an interactive version of his original film.

Judging by the $900,000 to call the Kickstarter a success, they're still in the very early stages of development. Currently sitting on around $50,000 at the time of writing, there's a long way to go. And if we're going off the October 2020 estimated delivery time on the pledge bonuses, those throwing their cash into the hat won't see a return for quite some time. Even still, with nothing more than a message from the director who watching gaming evolve from the Atari days, 115 people have put down the $35 required to grab a copy of the game in over 3 years. The trusting word of Francis Ford Coppola telling the big publishers to take a hike won some people over.
