We may have stumbled across a Kickstarter more ridiculous than the potato salad campaign. Christopher James Butler, claimed to be a developer who has worked for both EA and Valve in the last ten years. He wanted a mere £1500 to develop Half Life 3 under a different name, without Valve’s permission.

The campaign page says that Butler has a small team who have saved up funds to keep themselves paid throughout the development cycle. In an update on the page, the campaign starter admitted that he had not approached Valve about this at all and planned to release the final game under a different name to avoid getting sued. He also aimed to have a playable Alpha build ready for backers to play in 10 months time.
