Avellone joins Torment team

Kickstarter nears its end with almost $4million.
Mike Holmes 4 April 2013

The Kickstarter fund for InXile's Torment: Tides of Numenera is nearing the end, with the game already attracting over $3.5million in funding from the crowd. Passing that mark means that Chris Avellone - lead designer on Planescape: Torment - has joined the team.

In his new role, Avellone will review the game in progress, giving feedback to the team as they work. On top of that, he'll be penning an eighth character for the game.

The game is now aiming at the $4million mark, which might be pushing it a little bit far, but given their success so far, you can hardly blame them for trying. Here's a list of their stretch goals, just incase you want to pledge your support, and want to see what you might get for your money. Now check out two new screens, designed entirely to whet your appetite for more:
