About this project
Lincoln 5 is a science fiction mystery game that we have been developing since November 2008 – and it’s tantalizingly close to being finished. What it needs now is polish, some additional features and elements, and some more polish. It will be released for the PC, Mac, iPod Touch, iPhone, and iPad.
You play as Dr. Aero, a nurse aboard a Space Station called the USS Gateway, which orbits the flaming remains of earth. You begin the game chained to some shelves, with your head bleeding, and you have no idea how you got there. You soon discover that every other person on the station is dead.
The goal of the game is to find a way to heal your head injury before you die from it.
How you can help
I am raising money here on Kickstarter to pay people to help finish the game as well as to pay licensing fees, software and equipment expenses. (Note: The previous volunteers will be paid royalties from sales) You can help by making a pledge! Any amount is appreciated.
Keep in mind, as well, that if we don’t reach the official funding goal of $10,000 by the end of our listing, we don’t get any of the money.
You will NOT be charged if we don't reach our goal. And you aren't charged until the end date, September 4th.

One more thing...
Don't forget to spread the word! Not only could you and your friends get some bonus rewards, but it will help us get the funding we need. And, if we don't reach our target funding before our time limit runs out, we don't get any of the money.
Thanks to everyone!

I have always loved doing artistic and creative things, so developing Lincoln 5 has been an amazing and challenging experience for me. I just can't wait to share it.
