by Evan Narcisse Tom and Tony Cannon know about building communities. Specifically, communities where people compete in games in which characters pummel each other sensless. Now they want to make a game where avatars live together in (relative) harmony. But they say that Stonehearth the city-building game that theyre trying to fund via a just-launched Kickstarter campaign isnt all that far removed from Street Fighter. Seriously. Maybe you dont know their names. You almost certainly know of what theyve done, though. Heard of EVO, the world-renowned fighting game tournament? They started it with their friends. Ever visited Shoryuken, the leading website for fans of that genre? Its another brainchild of theirs. Remember when all of a sudden playing a fighting game online wasnt a horribly laggy experience? The Cannon-created GGPO middleware was to thank for that.
