Sixits looks to Kickstarter to fund Android and iOS game Robota: Vengeance

New media production company Sixits has turned to Kickstarter to fund its latest project an Infinity Blade-style adventure for iOS and Android based on Doug Chiang's Robota fiction.

The company hopes to raise $100,000 in crowdsourced contributions by March 12, offering backers of the project an iOS or Android copy of the final game if they pledge $5 or more.

Robota: Vengeance is based on Doug Chiang and Orson Scott Card's illustrated book Robota, and Chiang who has won an Oscar for his extensive work in film production will be collaborating with Sixits if the project reaches its funding goal.

Give it a good kick

Famous, the recent popularity of Kickstarter came from Double Fine which raised $2 million for its next game; despite only targeting $400,000 goal.

The Kickstarter page for Robota: Vengeance displays the current pledged total as just over $20,000. According to Kickstarter's rules, the project will only receive funding if its $100,000 target is reached by 12 March.
