It’s been a while since we last checked in with Lab Zero Game’s Indivisible. Eight months have already passed since the Internet forgot all of its differences and banned together for but a brief, beautiful moment to make this RPG a crowd-funding success, and progress on the title is still underway.

What if the back of your iPhone doubled as an e-ink display? That was the idea that led to the original PopSlate case, but while the possibilities for that second screen might seem endless the actual product was pretty limited. Now the company is back with PopSlate 2, boasting a ton of new features and a dramatically improved design. PopSlate learned a lot from the original model, and...
Despite being one of the most promising indie RPGs in quite some time, Lab Zero Games’ Indivisible is struggling to get anywhere in its Indiegogo campaign. After two weeks, the game has only raised $349,000 of its requested $1.5 million, or roughly 25 percent. The remaining $2 million will be put up by 505 Games if the campaign becomes a success. Word on the street is that some are...
The potential for augmented reality is pretty awesome, but the actual application has mostly fallen short so far. Strapping a bulky headset over your face is a tough sell for most people, but one new product offers a pretty clever alternative that we actually wouldn’t mind wearing in public.

A letter from the crowdfunding site obtained by Modular Android reveals that the project was flagged by the site’s Trust and Safety Team...
In a lot of ways, the growing wearable device market still feels like a solution in search of a problem. Then there’s Embrace, a new crowd-funded smartwatch that could actually save its wearer’s life by predicting epileptic seizures before they happen.

I do a lot, and I mean a lot, of writing in support of the best looking indie video games that frequent crowd-funding website, Kickstarter. I fully support striving game developers in achieving their dreams, but most of the time, I enjoy rallying support just because I want to some sweet video games that are more reminiscent of the games I enjoyed when I was a kid. With that in mind,...
We thought it was true, and it turns out we were correct! Shaq Fu: A Legend Reborn can totally be a real video game. For this to happen, the gaming community must band together and shell out $450,000 to basketball legend Shaquille O'Neal's IndieGoGo campaign to get it jump started. True, Shaq has a net worth of about $350 million, but he has already invested a lot of time and money...
iDoorCam has had an amazing run on the crowdfunding site Indiegogo, reaching its goal within a day of launching. Still the campaign has just over a week remaining and looks to be winning over investors in solid numbers. iDoorCam is so much more than your basic doorbell.
