We rode a $10,000 hoverboard, and you can too
It's impossible to talk about hoverboards without invoking a particular movie title, so we're not even going to try: Remember that awesome scene from Back to the Future Part II? It's one step closer to reality

There’s a Kickstarter for NoPhone, a phone that literally does nothing
It may look like an iPhone, but the NoPhone doesn’t text, call, email, FaceTime, or do anything at all. Scratch that: It does do something. It points out the technological dependency and decaying social values that are destroying the world, one cell phone at a time. “Phone addiction is real. And it’s everywhere,” the NoPhone Kickstarter reads.

The Oatmeal creator crowd-funds ‘insanely fun’ kitty powered card game, ‘Exploding Kittens’
Before Matthew Inman entered the picture, this humble little card game was called “Bomb Squad.” And before Inman the oft-viral “Oatmeal” cartoonist drew the picture, there were no cats that go “boom!”. “Elan Lee and Shane Small created the game originally using a standard deck of playing cards,” Inman tells The Post’s Comic Riffs of his gaming-veteran collaborators (both of whom have drawn paychecks from Xbox). Inman was hooked not only on the Russian Roulette-like game, but also...

12 Successful Kickstarters That Never Delivered
All is not right in the world of crowdfunding. For every massive critical success like Shovel Knight or Divinity: Original Sin, there are numerous games or game-related projects that disappoint, under-deliver, or, as has become scarily common, take people's money and never make what they promised in the first place.

Card game about exploding kittens overtakes Ouya's Kickstarter record
The internet loves cats, so it just seems fitting that a Kickstarter campaign called Exploding Kittens has dethroned Ouya as the highest-funded project in the site's games category. It was created by Xbox game designers Elan Lee and Shane Small, but it's not a video game, if that's what you were thinking. Instead, it's card game illustrated by their co-creator Matthew Inman of The Oatmeal, which the internet loves almost as much as it loves cats.

Between Kickstarter’s frauds and phenoms live long-delayed projects
In my view, consumer printers are hulking and inscrutable plastic machines, worse to look at than to use. When industrial design students need to be punished, they have to sit alone in a room with one. So a year ago, I got excited about a new Kickstarter project that promised to change the printing design paradigm. Zuta Labs' printer looked like a tiny marvel: a little machine the size of a large apple that walked across pieces of paper, leaving ink footprints.

Rightwingers think capitalism's great – if you're selling something they like
By their logic, crowdfunding for the cop who shot Michael Brown is fine, but a Kickstarter for a feminist coloring book is a travesty.
