'Apocalypse Now' Update: Kickstarter Canceled? Own Crowdfunding Platform With $5.9M Goal Launched

International Business Times

The 1979 film "Apocalypse Now" is getting the video game treatment, but the people behind the adaptation really need financial help to realize the project. Surprisingly, the Kickstarter project for first-person perspective survival and horror RPG was canceled this Tuesday. Game director Montgomery Markland of Erebus LLC -- the studio working on the game alongside film director Francis Ford Coppola's American Zoetrope -- broke the news on the Kickstarter page for the game. The cancellation of the Kickstarter shouldn't come as a surprise to backers. Despite managing to accumulate $172,514 from the 2,718 backers who pledged for the game's completion, the project was just too far from its $900,000 initial goal.
