Title Even in the scenario where we raise the $800,000 or so on Kickstarter
About me Today, John Drake, Harmonix's director of publishing and PR, put up a blog post clarifying questions potential backers have had about why the studio needs this much money to make the Runescape game.It dismisses the ideas that Harmonix could seek publisher funding or that it has enough money from Rock Band sales or the studio's 2006 sale to media giant Viacom to self fund the project. Drake also reveals that "the $775,000 of this Kickstarter is less than half of the project budget for the Runescape game.""Even in the scenario where we raise the $800,000 or so on Kickstarter, we’ll be risking more of Harmonix’s money than we probably should all because we want to make this game so badly," Drake writes.Most notably,RS 3 Gold Drake explains that the major money paid out by major media corporation Viacom to purchase Harmonix didn't end up in the company coffers. The company's early investors, not the studio itself, "were the primary recipients of 'all that Rock Band money' as well they should have been not the business of Harmonix that is trying to make this game," Drake writes. Viacom snagged Harmonix in 2006 but sold off the studio for next to nothing after the plastic music instrument fad crashed. Viacom ultimately was ordered to pay $299 million to Harmonix investors thanks to a lawsuit between the companies over the original purchase deal.The post highlights the difficulties many developers have been encountering with Kickstarter campaigns of late. Renegade Kid's Cult County struggled and ultimately failed to make its goal, while X Com creator Julian Gollop's Chaos Reborn came close to missing its goal before ultimately succeeding surprising even its developer. Game industry veteran Tracy Fullerton has been selected to lead the University of Southern California's new USC Runescape games program, which combines courses in engineering, art and design into a curriculum for students looking to enter the Runescape game industry.Fullerton is the first director of the new program, and has been teaching at USC since 1999.
