After a plethora of milestones in Star Citizen's lucrative crowdfunding campaign, Roberts Space Industries has reached another as it achieves $55 million in funding: the title of largest crowdfunded project ever.
This record extends past the video game industry, encompassing any project on Kickstarter or similar sites to date. Creator Chris Roberts called this "unthinkable" on the Star Citizen blog, saying that the company still intends to spend all of the money on development, not for profits before release.
"Every effort is about enriching the game’s vision," he writes. "Funding to date has allowed us to go so far beyond what I thought was possible in 2012. You’re still getting that game, no question, but it will be all the richer and so much more immersive because of the additional funding."
