Harmony Gold Cancels Robotech Academy Kickstarter

posted on by Lynzee Loveridge
Campaign sought US$500,000 for 24-minute animated pilot

campaign on Saturday, August 2, six days before its deadline. The campaign raised US$194,574 of its US$500,000 goal from 2,284 backers before it ended.

The company said it will "continue to explore its options with Robotech Academy" and further updates will be made on the project's official website. Some of the backer rewards may be made available as part of Robotech's 30th anniversary next year.

The campaign was accepting backers to fund a 24-minute pilot to "continue the legacy of the original animated series and bring the Robotech universe to a new generation of anime audiences."

The story was going to be based on the work of the Aura Battler Dunbine.

Scott Glasgow was in charge of music, and CreaVision was tasked with the computer animation.
