While much is made of Roberts Space Industries’ work on Star Citizen, perhaps much less known is the job that Turbulent has performed. This small team has been tackling web site content, including setting up the pledging tools, forums, and social games.
A recent interview with Turbulent shines some light on what goes on behind the scenes, including the apparent size of Star Citizen’s patron base: “Of the one million user accounts that includes the Roberts Space Industries platform, 500,000 fans have already pre-purchased content in the game, which is actively involved in its funding.”
And can you believe it, Star Citizen’s Around the Verse vidcast has already hit 100 episodes! Catch up on the latest news and gossip surrounding the game after the break — and stay tuned to for a rather silly music video involving a vending machine afterward.
