Cloud Imperium Games' sci-fi space sim and RPG Star Citizen has passed another major crowdfunding milestone: $700 million. The latest $100 million has been raised in less than a year as well.

Chris Roberts’ vacation fund has reached a new milestone. soypoint-2

so-true With your help we can get this up to 1 billion, which will ensure that Chris gets to visit more places and can enjoy more of the local cuisine. Oh, yeah, and it helps the game get finished sooner, of course.

In other news, they finally reworked the game’s UI after 12 years of R&D, and it now looks worse than it did before. Progress. soypoint-1

      Have you ever actually done 3D game development? I promise it’s not really that simple. Not everything about this game has to be complete shit just because the owner of the company is a grifter, they definitely hired talented people to do the work even if the work is ultimately a scam.
