Iranian political adventure 1979 Revolution argoes to Kickstarter

Last year former Rockstar developer Navid Khonsari was branded a spy by his native Iran for working on his upcoming game 1979 Revolution. The fact that he can't visit family in his homeland hasn't stopped Khonsari from continuing his work on the project at his New York-based studio Ink Stories, though the game is currently struggling to meet its funding goal on Kickstarter.
