Pathologic smashes Kickstarter goal

Pathologic has successfully hit its $250,000 goal on Kickstarter and with three days to go it looks like it may reach $300,000 with around $20,000 more needed. The funding raised for the game makes it the most heavily backed independent Russian game on Kickstarter to date. The goal of $300,00 would allow Ice-Pick Lodge developers to add more to the games Town area basically providing more content for players:

The Town Extended ($300,000). This stretch goal seems pretty self-explanatory, and yet it’s the toughest one to explain. We’ve launched this whole campaign to make an extended version of the game after all, didn’t we? Thing is, it’s always possible to add more. More unique objects, more dialogue options, more questlines, more events happening around you. And it won’t be filler content either. Say, there are plot-dependent areas planned in the warehouse district; but what if you could also find caches and hideouts there? What if street NPCs had additional reactions to your activities? What if there were simply more questlines? You would become even more hard-pressed for time, sure, but we’ll balance it. The Town is a finished place, but we can always improve it intensively, adding more small locations, hidden corners, nooks and crannies. Also: more quests, more NPCs—more content in general.
