On Friday, the clock struck zero for Renegade Kid’s Kickstarter projectCult County.The crowdfunding campaign failed to achieve its $580,000 goal by a wide margin. It seems that target was a bridge too far, as theMutant Muddsdeveloper managed to raise just $46,736 in pledges.

Cult Countywas announced for Nintendo 3DS at PAX East in March 2013. Since then, Renegade Kid has revealed plans to bring the episodic first-person horror game to PlayStation systems, Wii U, Windows PC, Mac, Linux, and Xbox One.
