As an experiment in funding free software games, I have created a
kickstarter. (I'm sure some people will say I shouldn't use a
proprietary site like that but I'm going where the people are.)

Mojotron: Robot Wars is an update to the free software game Mojotron. 
It is a twin stick shooter similar to Robotron: 2084. It has been
updated to use SDL2 instead of ClanLib 0.6. I've also been reskinning
the game because I wanted a more serious tone to the game. Many bugs
have been fixed as well.

If you are interested in supporting or just spread the word the
kickstarter is:

Crowdfunding of Mojotron: Robot Wars didn't succeed. I've learned a lot
about running a kickstarter and think I could do better next time. But
just because funding failed doesn't mean the code should be locked
away.
