Double Fine's Massive Chalice has finished it be Kickstarter campaign, funding the project 'n earning a total a $1.2 million (minus Kickstarter's various fees) for production.

In addition t' the core game, which sounds like an intriguing mix a turn-based strategy 'n large-scale kingdom building, the team promised t' grow the project's scope based on the funding received rather than rely on stretch goals. Other features 'n platforms will be determined as the project goes along. Development be being led by the smiley Brad Muir, above, who also designed tower-defense shooter Trenched, later called Iron Brigade.

This be Double Fine's second successful Kickstarter; the first be the Adventure Game project, which resulted in the upcoming Broken Age. Massive Chalice's $1.2 million isn't quite as big as the $3.3 million earned for the game that became Broken Age, but the latest project began with a goal a $725,000, much larger than the Adventure Game's initial goal a $400,000. Massive Chalice will now start production, so it'll likely be a while before we see the game ready for release.
