Great news for my colleagues at Klang Games:
Klang has raised $22.33 million in funding to develop a massively multiplayer online space colony simulation called Seed. The Berlin-based game studio is making a large-scale, persistent virtual world, hoping to redefine the MMO landscape... Seed is an online life-simulator where each player manages multiple characters. Set far in the future, players work together rebuild society and create a new home in a vast world similar to the Earth. The simulation is persistent and continuous, meaning that when players go offline, their characters will continue to live their lives within the simulation.
Seed's Discord server is here. I've been working with the Klang team on Seed's launch since last year, and I'm pretty psyched (in a very biased way) for their next big announcements coming soon. Until then, here's some of the writing I've done for them, to help set the stage for what they're creating:
After coming from Worlds Adrift and it being one of several failures (Lazarus, Mavericks: Proving Ground) for SpatialOS this year alone, I have little faith this one will be around past a alpha/beta stage before closing.

This will either be overrun by extreme communist leftists or far right nazi roleplayers (I'm betting the former), either way, it will be a 22 million dollar dumpster fire.

A lot of money invested in a game isn't enough. It's too soon to make any assumptions.
