Outcast ble sluppet i 1999, og var da både nyskapende, ekspansivt og trollbindende vakkert. Deler av originalteamet har de siste månedene forsøkt å skrape sammen omtrent fire millioner kroner for å kunne fikse oppløsningen og gi ut en HD-remake. Prosjektet har tiltrukket seg 5161 personer som har investert 254 000 dollar. Dette er ikke i nærheten av de 600 000 dollarene utviklerne tok sikte på, så nå skriver de følgende på Kickstarter-siden:
Good moon Adelphians!
When we started this campaign, I was so excited that I could not imagine that we could eventually fail. Shame on me! This same over-confidence, this same craziness and this same adventurousness, which 15 years ago led us to create the original game, lead us to face the harsh reality of this Kickstarter failure which could have been avoided with a bit more time, thinking and upfront money. We have received backing from over 5,100 of you for about $253.000, which is an amazing average pledge level. We are profoundly grateful and deeply touched by this amazing generosity.
Unfortunately, despite a rather good start, the pitch and the content we presented were not attractive enough to convince more backers (especially those who didn't play the original game) and did not manage to reach the overestimated funding goal of $600.000.
