Fig launches new open-ended crowdfunding program

Four years after launching a crowdfunding platform where custotmers can become investors and receive dividends from a game’s sales, Fig is trying something new. The company today announced the creation of Open Access, an open-ended campaign that stretches throughout a game’s development process.

In the past, game makers set a monetary goal for their 30-day campaigns and only received the money if they managed to reach or surpass that number by the end of the month. With Fig’s new Open Access model (now available as a beta test), studios receive the funding right away and don’t have to stick to a specific timetable.
