Insomniac Gives $7,500 to Amplitude’s Kickstarter

May 20, 2014 by Stephen Daly

The studio’s 20th anniversary song will feature in Harmonix’s game.

Ratchet and Clank and Sunset Overdrive developer Insomniac has donated $7,500 to the Kickstarter for Harmonix's Amplitude. 

Studio boss Ted Price revealed the news on Insomniac's website stating: 

"Music games have always been a huge hit at Insomniac. For a long time, Guitar Hero and Rock Band competitions were a weekly, if not daily, occurrence around the office. But before those games put plastic instruments in your hands, our longtime fellow independent developer friends at Harmonix had created Amplitude and Frequency, two of our favorite music games, and two of the best PlayStation 2 games of all-time.

"There’s only four days left, and still about 50% of the way to go. If the money isn’t raised, the game won’t happen. We are big fans of both Harmonix and Amplitude, and we want to see Amplitude HD. As such, Insomniac has backed the game at the $7,500 level. We hope if you liked Amplitude or Frequency, or just love great music games in general, you’ll consider pledging too."

Insomniac chose to put Crazy Ride, their 20th Anniversary song, into the game as their reward for the contribution but as Price notes, if the game isn't funded, it won't happen. 

Amplitude, currently funded to the tune of $436,000 of its $750,000 asking price, is slated for PS3 and PS4.
