Play As Kim Jong Un And Take Down Sony For Making 'The Interview' In 'Glorious Leader!'
Chances are you've already heard the news surrounding North Korean hackers taking down Sony and forcing them to axe the release of The Interview. What would happen if Kim Jong Un took matters into his own hands and turned Rambo on the world? With that in mind, allow me to introduce Glorious Leader!
Post-Apocalyptic Fairytale 'The Reverie' Asks "Are We Alone At The End Of The World?"
'The Reverie' has been receiving a great amount of attention over the past 3 days on Kickstarter, moving along nicely towards its funding goal and being selected as a "Staff Pick." This short film set in the wake of an unnamed catastrophe has shown our appetite for independent projects from talented people, refusing to let the film industry fall into the ironically dystopian plains of big budget cinema pleasers.
Mogees Turns Everyday Objects Into Musical Instruments
Ever looked at the household objects around you and thought to yourself "what would that sound like as a musical instrument?" Not really a question you think about, but one that definitely came up in my younger music nerd days! 'Mogees' looks to answer that question with a rather innovative piece of kit.
#NRMPresents 'ION Glasses.' The Cheaper, Stylish Alternative To Google Glass
It may sound weird, but the idea of smart glasses actually looking like a standard pair of spectacles is a bit far-fetched. But ION Glasses take on Google Glass and the competition with a fairly traditional looking pair of hipster specs.
#NRMPresents 'The True-View.' 3D Photos & Video On Your 2D Smartphone
The classic View-Master is dragged into the 21st century with 'The True-View.' The 3D smartphone fad died a couple years ago, so what if you want the best of both worlds? That is where this pretty beautifully designed device comes in, allowing you to take 3D photos and videos on your 2D phone.
#NRMPresents 'WREN.' A Crowdsourced Satellite You Can Directly Control
We've seen many efforts in bringing the world closer to space, all from a plethora of multi-billion pound companies. But imagine a mission to the stars ran by four guys in a garage and, possibly, you. Introducing WREN: the first satellite you can fly.
#NRMPRESENTS 'Superhot.' Control Time In This Unique FPS Puzzler

#NRMPresents 'SATURDAY.' A Short Film About The Hillsborough Disaster
From the most dedicated of Liverpool fans to those who don't watch football, everyone is aware of the Hillsborough disaster of 1989. Of the 24,000+ fans who travelled to Sheffield that day, 96 never came home. 'SATURDAY' aims to tell the story of this tragic event from a unique perspective.

#NRMPresents 'He Took His Skin Off For Me.' A Twisted, Bloody Love Story

#NRMPresents 'TouchKeys.' Multi-Touch Gestures For Your Piano
For the past few centuries, the piano has been commonplace in music. During this same period of time, the instrument hasn't really evolved either. Well that is until now, as the 'Touch Keys' DIY sensor kit brings touch sensitivity to the surface of piano keys, similar to the screen of a smartphone or tablet.
#NRMPresents 'MotorGun.' Car Combat From A "Dream Team" Of Developers
What would you get if the creative minds behind the likes of Gears of War, Unreal Tournament, Twisted Metal, Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Interstate '76 made a game? Newly formed Pixelbionic has the answer: presenting MotorGun, the studio's inaugural car combat title.
#NRMPresents 'Pocket Spacecraft.' Send Your Own Spacecraft To The Moon
We've become closer to space than we could ever imagine recently. Through the likes of SpaceX and Virgin Galactic, it's fair to say the idea of taking the kids on a holiday excursion to deep space is becoming less far-fetched as the years pass by. However a recently launched Kickstarter, called Pocket Spacecraft, project doesn't hope to get you into "space tourism," rather give all backers their own "personalised spacecraft" to send into orbit.
#NRMPresents 'Caged': A Marvel Fan Film
UK filmmakers Sneaky Zebra have unveiled their new project: a short film focused on the character of Luke Cage (otherwise known as Power Man) and how he breaks out of his unjust imprisonment, bringing unwanted attention to himself in the process from certain high-up interested parties.
#NRMPresents 'The Realm.' An Imaginative Evolution Of The Point & Click
The Realm is an upcoming point-and-click adventure game currently making the rounds on Kickstarter. The game takes place on an Earth in the far future, presumably after an apocolyptic event, in which remnants of cities and civilisations we recognise today have grown in harmony with nature - trees, plantlife, and the like. The game follows the journey of a young girl, Serena, and her giant golem friend, Toru throughout the land, all rendered lovingly in a hand-drawn artwork style, layered to create 3D environments.
#NRMPresents 'Among The Sleep.' Horror Through The Eyes Of A Child
Among the Sleep is an upcoming game that puts you in the role of a two-year-old child.

#NRMPresents 'Battle Worlds: Kronos.' Kickstarter Campaign Launched For Unfinished Fan Favourite
Six years ago, KING Art Studios made a prototype of turn-based strategy game Battle Worlds: Kronos, which underwent community testing and gained popularity with the European strategy community. However, no publisher came forward to back the project, and as the developers moved onto new games, this highly regarded title was to remain unfinished.
As you could probably tell with this substantial amount of build-up, that is until now.
#NRMPresents 'SIMPLcase.' A Minimalist iPhone Case For Travelers
Anybody who regularly travels will know the pain of international data costs, or keeping track of international SIM cards to dodge these charges. Luckily, 'SIMPLcase' is an iPhone 4/4S/5 case with a solution that is, as the name suggests, simple.
