AQW’s Unity remake sets a $1 goal and accidentally speedruns $1.6M—mobile is part of the plan
Artix Entertainment’s AdventureQuest Worlds: Infinity Kickstarter became a headline because it combined a meme-worthy funding goal with real platform ambition. The campaign asked for $1—explicitly stating the team intended to build the modern version anyway—and then surged past $1.6 million, turning it into one of those “the percentage number is ridiculous” crowdfunding stories. The core product news is what matters for mobile: AQW Infinity is a rebuild of the 2008 Flash MMO in Unity so it can run on modern platforms including Steam plus iOS and Android.
