After three days, the IndieGogo fundraising drive has raised $80,000 with 27 days to go.
The group says, "As a video game enthusiast or someone who knows video game players, you have likely encountered the pervasive, negative notion that people who play video games are wasting their time and should be doing something “more productive” instead. The effect on gamers everywhere—especially young ones—is widespread embarrassment and downward social pressure around an activity that they love.
"What is not NEARLY as widespread is the understanding that playing video games actually presents numerous benefits and the passion should be supported."
The campaign has raised support from NetherRealm Studios' Ed Boon and legendary comic book creator Stan Lee, among others.
