Not quite a year ago, we did a brief piece on Caribbean Conquest, a sailing MMORPG that launched and then canceled a small Kickstarter. Indeed, last year the website went dead, and we have been carting around a linkless Caribbean Conquest in our Make My MMO column ever since!
But that’s all changing this week, as the game and website are back — and so is a new Kickstarter, which has a month to raise just over $30,000.
The devs say that they had the bad misfortune of launching the original Kickstarter the same day Naval Action released. “We took this as an opportunity to assess feedback. We identified what people thought of the project and what people wanted,” they write.
Kickstarter backers can pick up access to the alpha (ongoing now) or beta (coming in October) depending on tier. Full release is expected next year.
