In-development, multi-game project Star Citizen raised $34.91 million dollars in 2017 - more than twice that of all games on Kickstarter combined, which took $17.25 million.
Per Polygon - which obtained figures from Star Citizen's developers and Kickstarter itself - Star Citizen doubled the takings of over 350 games on the crowdfunding platform.
More amazingly, this is the second year in a row that Star Citizen's managed the feat, after it earned $36.11 million in 2016.
Star Citizen currently comprises a single-player game, Squadron 42 (which stars Mark Hamill, Gary Oldman and Gillian Anderson among others) and a persistent universe multiplayer game, which has been in Alpha testing for several years. Neither game has a release date.
