This is a really heartbreaking story. I've never heard of this studio, nor do I play these sorts of games but I feel just terrible for this guy.

There is a warning here. Kickstarter has proved that gamers, particularly veteran PC gamers, are great at remembering the good old days and missing the kinds of games we played back then. We are great at imagining how wonderful those games would be if they were made today, and we’re great at helping those legendary designers make a return. Watching Wildman adrift at $350,000 while the lights go out at Gas Powered, it seems we’re less good at knowing when something is in the process of being lost.
