Frogwares, the Ukrainian developer of the Sherlock Holmes series, says its recent crowd🌳funding success could mean a release of its next project early next year, but it's pushing the last few days of its campaign in an uncomfortably violent manner.

In the wake of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the studio announced a remake of its 2007 title Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened to offer greater "stability and predictability" during and after the conflict. The game was to be financed via a Kickstarter crowdfunding ca🌞mpaign, which began in early August and hit its goal within six h⭕ours. Currently, Frogwares has made more than $220,000 of its initial $70,000 goal.

In a press release, the studio says that the current state of production and the crowdfunding campaign's success means that ♍"it looks like we should be able to release by as soon as February 𓃲202[3]. That's what we as a team are now aiming for at least." The studio says that things are still subject to change, and that "the priority will always need to [be] the safety and ability of our team to work."

With less than two days left until the crowdfunding campaign ends on September 3, Frogwares announced that it had been in contact with a 💎group of the studio's fans currently serving in a Ukrainian artillery division. To raise awareness of the campaign, those soldiers said that three "winners" who shared the Kickstarter link would have their messages etched on a howitzer shell. 

The soldiers say that they "look forward to sending these special deliveries to our unwanted guests," heavily implying that the modified shells will be used in the conflict against Russian soldiers. While much of the global community has offered its support to Ukraine throughout 2022, with the games industry offering significant financial support thanks to companies like 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Epic Games, Frogwares' use of that goodwill is unsettling.
