Fright Fight Creeps Onto Kickstarter In Time For Halloween

Fright Fight, a forthcoming iOS game that promises to bring a Super Smash Bros. experience to the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch, has just launched a brand new Kickstarter campaign in a bid to secure $50,000 of funding from backers all around the world.
The game, as you'll recall, will allow players to choose a character, and to fight either one-on-one, in teams, or in a "free for all" environment, in a 3-D world.
With four different characters to choose from (a vampire, a werewolf, a yeti, and a reaper), iDevice users as spoilt for choice; at the same time, Fright Fight's impressive graphics and engineering render it a joy to play.
After having gone hands-on with Fright Fight using a prerelease build of the game, we're impressed.
So far, we've had chance to try out the game's four unnamed characters in one world - Flotsam Islands (pictured below) - but zGames hopes to bring more worlds, and improved character ability, through its Kickstarter campaign.
Near-term goals for Fright Fight, then, are said to include:
However, if enough funding is secured, an additional character, a new world, enhanced visual effects and physics, and even character "pets" could reach Fright Fight. Backing options start at $4, which offers gamers an "exclusive wallpaper." For $13, though, gamers will get 13,000 in-game coins once Fright Fight launches, along with a digital art book and the aforementioned wallpaper. Finally, for $19, you can start the game with all four characters unlocked. Higher backing options offer iDevice users a number of different rewards. From what we understand, Fright Fight is expected to launch in March 2014. For more information, head over to Fright Fight's Kickstarter Web page.
