Okay, so I stumbled across this game thing, this Eldramoor: Haven in the Mist. It’s like, a virtual world thing—VRMMO, they call it—that’s got people throwing money at it faster than I can finish my morning coffee. Seriously, their crowdfunding thing hit over $100,000 just like that—snap!
Anyway, it all started on June 24th. This whole idea was cooked up by folks who used to play Orbus VR, which I guess kicked the bucket not too long ago. These guys at Resolute Games—yep, they’re basically like, “We played, now we make.” They smashed their funding target of $25,000 in barely one and a half hours. I mean, I can’t even find my left sock that fast some mornings, but whatever.
Honestly, I kind of laughed at that $25,000 goal. Felt like trying to buy a mansion with piggy bank money. They’ve got all these grand plans—different classes, crazy quests, magic stuff, fights, guilds, and, oh yeah, cooking? Sure, why not, right?
Then there’s this Lynn M. Souza, the big cheese at Resolute. She had this whole strategy to pull a “Zenith,” whatever that means. Maybe it’s a code for "impress the pants off everyone and get more cash"?
Oh, and they’ve got these stretch goals that sound kind of wild. Stuff like this healing bonfire thing—are we roasting marshmallows too?—and some earth and air powers. Plus, they’re tossing in a new species and letting you invite friends over to your virtual crib. Bit like when you let your buddy crash on your couch, except, it’s all, you know, digital.
Right, so there’s this big thing about pets too. Not just for cuddles! They’re gonna be like your little sidekick—imagine a furry buddy casting spells or whatever. They’ll pop that feature at $125,000. Cool if you like creatures helping out, I guess.
So yeah, Eldramoor is supposed to drop on Quest 3 and SteamVR heads up, somewhere around late 2026. The fundraising shindig wraps up on July 24th—if you fancy chucking some coins their way, you might want to hop on it soon.
And there you have it. A game, some dreams, and a pile of cash. Who knew virtual worlds could be this… exciting?
