Star Citizen is the highest grossing crowdfunded project of all time

Cloud Imperium released a news blurb touting Star Citizen's newly minted status as the most successful crowdfunded project of all time. The upcoming space sim beat out the $10,266,844 pledged to Pebble Watch to claim the title.

The update also offers a bit of clarity with regard to the recent 300 series trailer. "The video you saw wasn't just made in-engine, it used actual game models," Cloud Imperium explains. "You're looking at the 300i mesh you will see in Star Citizen and not some high-poly fake created for cutscenes and good PR. What you're seeing is what you'll play."

This is definitely my most anticipated game. I absolutely can't wait. What I love about his approach is the way in which he is getting the community involved from such an early stage. It's going to be epic.
