Temtem Pioneers ends Kickstarter at more than $1.1 million

Temtem Pioneers has wrapped up its Kickstarter campaign with more than $1.1 million raised, well above its initial goal. Crema’s new game is a multiplayer survival sandbox set in the Temtem universe, and the campaign’s final total answers the only real question that was left in its last stretch: not whether it would fund, but how far past the target it would go.

That’s a notable result for Crema, especially since some players still remember the studio’s handling of crowdfunding around the original Temtem. Even so, Pioneers had already cleared its base goal early, and the campaign kept climbing through its final days before closing out over the weekend.

Temtem Pioneers shifts away from the MMO structure of the first game and into survival sandbox territory. The pitch centers on gathering resources, building up a settlement, and exploring with other players, while still using the creature-collecting setting Temtem is known for.

The source doesn’t include a full breakdown of stretch goals or post-campaign plans here, so it’s not clear what Crema’s next milestone updates will look like. What is confirmed is that the Kickstarter is finished, funded, and ended with a seven-figure total.

For Temtem fans, that means Crema’s spin on a co-op survival game is moving ahead with a much bigger budget than its minimum ask. Whether that helps smooth over lingering skepticism from earlier backers is a separate question, but the funding side is settled now.
