is barreling forward unhindered by any quantity of grumbling from its detractors - in fact, things are speeding up despite years of delays and vague release windows for the hugely ambitious space sim. While we're nowhere near a full release, huge amounts of playable and work-in-progress content have already been made available to players - who seem to be lapping it all up. Star Citizen collected more last year in crowdfunding than the year before, breaking the record again.
Fans have been dutifully tracking year-over-year earnings for the bold, and at times controversial, project. With Cloud Imperium Games not always flaunting record breaking earnings - likely on purpose, though they do share large, whole-number milestones - it's up to this sort of grassroots record keeping to see how interest and popularity fluctuate over the years. The company always makes the exact amount of collected funds and active accounts public, but statistics are hard to compare.
