Popular Media player VLC have started Kickstarter campaign to raise funds for Windows 8 app. VLC media player runs currently in Windows 8, but several members of the company wants to create new metro style app for Windows 8. Main reason to start Kickstarter campaign for VLC is to raise funds to allow current members to work full-time with the Windows 8 version, and hire designers to rework the user interface of the new Metro style app.

The project will only start if team raises £40,000, before December 29th. If it’s success the port for new Metro styled app will be ready in three months. VLC won’t launch Windows RT version straight at the start, but they will include it in future updates.
