Renegade Kid Launches Kickstarter For ‘Cult County’

Dementium developer Renegade Kid is asking for $580,000 on Kickstarter to fund their “slow burn” survival horror game Cult County. It was originally supposed to be a Nintendo 3DS game, but seems as if that platform has since taken a backseat to essentially every other one out there, including PC, Mac, Linux, PS3, PS4, Vita, Wii U and Xbox One. If its stretch goals are met, it will also be ported to Xbox 360.

The developer offered an explanation for this change on the game’s Kickstarter page, where they wrote “Cult County has grown beyond the scope of the 3DS, and we do not want to compromise our vision for the game.” More after the jump.

“Cult County is an all-new first-person survival horror game that blends the episodic story-telling of The Walking Dead with the classic tension-filled exploration and action of Silent Hill and Resident Evil, presenting an opportunity for fans to help a veteran team produce a new experience that is fresh, exciting, and scary!”

You can learn all about Cult County on its Kickstarter.

In related news, if you’ve been waiting for a new Dementium game, it looks like that won’t be happening. They don’t go into detail, but apparently, certain “contractual obligations” are keeping them from returning to the series.

While you wait for Alien: Romulus, the folks over at Devilworks have cooked up their own slice of “mockbuster” fun with Alien Hunt, and we’re debuting the trailer here on BD this morning.

This brand-new sci-fi horror from director Aaron Mirtes (The Bigfoot Trap, Painted in Blood) is set for its US premiere on May 14, and you can find it on digital thanks to Devilworks.

You can exclusively watch the official trailer for Alien Hunt below, which looks to combine elements of Alien and Predator. This particular “mockbuster” has very little interest in hiding its inspirations, with the alien designs plucked straight out of H.R. Giger’s beautiful brain. Hey, if you’re going to pull from other movies, might as well take from the all-time greats!

In Alien Hunt, “On a hunting trip in the wilderness, a group of siblings discovers an abandoned military outpost on their land, but is it what it seems?

“Their trip takes a sinister turn when they find themselves facing off against a relentless army of extra-terrestrial beings. Suddenly, the hunters become the hunted.

“The formidable squad of alien soldiers will stop at nothing to wipe out the enemy and in an all-out, brutal battle for survival, it’s kill or be killed in Alien Hunt.”

Barron Boedecker (Escape Pod, The Bigfoot Trap), Brent Bentley (The Perfect In-Laws, Haunt Season), Deiondre Teagle (The Visitor, Painted in Blood, Death Ranch), Chelsey Fuller (The Bigfoot Trap, The Silent Natural), Jesse Santoyo (A Nashville Country Christmas, Potter’s Ground), and Adam Pietripaoli (The Bigfoot Trap, The OctoGames) star.
