Overview

  • Continue, styled as CONTINUE, hit its $18,000 Kickstarter target in seven hours and raised about AU$44,000 within a day.
  • Passing the AU$40,000 stretch goal unlocks plans to launch continuemagazine.com alongside the print edition.
  • The project is pitched as an annual, locally focused print magazine spotlighting Australian games and writers.
  • The first issue is set to feature contributors including Alanah Pearce, Ruby Innes, Ally McLean, James O’Connor, and Ben Armstrong, with pitches still open.
  • The creators frame the effort as a response to industry layoffs and the contraction of Australian games media, arguing there is sustained demand for quality games writing.
