Indie horror adventure Stasis reaches full funding on Kickstarter
With only five days left in its epic 33-day Kickstarter campaign, 2D/isometric/horror/adventure game Stasis has achieved full funding, edging just over its $100,000 goal. The game, developed by South African brothers Christopher and Nicolas Bischoff, takes inspiration from classic point-and-click games such as The Dig, as well as space horror films like Ridley Scott’s Alien.

Meanwhile, supporters can look forward to the wide array of rewards, including an official soundtrack composed by Mark Morgan, of Fallout fame.
