Refract Studios reaches two stretch goals after going the Distance on Kickstarter

Seattle, 21st November 2012– Last Friday on November 16th 2012, Refract Studios completed their Kickstarter campaign for Distance, an experimental parkour-inspired survival racing game set in a mysterious dystopian city. The game is a spiritual successor to the multi-award-winning student game Nitronic Rush. The final funding amount on Kickstarter was $161,981, over $36,000 above their targeted goal.

In the final week of their campaign alone, Refract raised $83,681 and doubled their funding on Kickstarter. That rocketed them past their first stretch goal of $150,000, which included full Replay and Spectator modes.

With the addition of PayPal, they raised a bit more after the Kickstarter closed, placing the current funding at a combined total of $165,432. Reaching their second stretch goal of $165,000, the team is excited to announce that a randomly generated track system will be officially implemented and included in the game.
