22k$ - A small word to the community

[Leshma]

Kickstarter uses fixed funding scheme. What that means? When you pledge, your money is reserved, if goal isn't reached you get your money back.

Indiegogo allows both fixed and flexible funding campaigns. Flexible funding means there is goal but it doesn't have to be reached, creators will get pledged money anyways.

Thats right, the money will be gone if they initial goal is not reached, shame I know.

It won't be gone, your credit card just won't be charged

But that system is good, you don't want money to go to a half-funded project, because that would be a waste.

But yes, we need to make it and reach the 130k to get it

Ah sweet. Figured the money being lost would be the website-creators way of getting money out of it

Will put my christmas money to good use then. Have half my monthly income

So how much it will be, 5 $?

It seems like we are not going to reach 300k Is there still any chance to have a coop (made by you)? Or do modders have to do it?

[Clockworkkiller]

Stop being so negative people! The Goal SHALL be reached!

lol I was being serious, just goes to show how little I know about kickstarter, but i thought id try to be nice and answer switch's question ^^

Edit: If this thing can get 130k we sure as hell should be able to, their intro video is terrible imo lol https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/roxley/steampunk-rally?ref=popular

Don't worry chadz, if we get to 80% of our goal with only a day remaining you know the cRPG community will up all their pledges!

Don't underestimate last minute influxes!

Even though the money doesn't go anywhere if the goal fails, it's still possible to game the system and invest more from your own money in a last ditch effort too.

A whole lot more than that! About 15€

What's amazing as well IMO is the money people are putting into it so far. We have now an average (!) of 58$ per pledge, while the digital copy is already available at 20 bucks. Not to forget many people didn't need to put anything extra in because of the investment. Both shows how dedicated the people that are backing are and that it is really the numbers we need getting.

Should have had a lower start goal with everyone but cmp having shared office space, then a 50k stretch goal for that (he would move out for the timebeing).

It is looking a bit close, but there's still a lot of time to make a big break.

I don't wanna be pessimistic, but it's probably not gonna make it by kickstarter alone if there isn't additional mainstream pr stuff/publicity.

also the contribution of the crpg community alone as everyone here I'm sure believes will be not even 1/3rd of the total the project aims at.

trending at 140k at the moment, however that is taking into account the starting boost(1st day) of the campaign and not considering that the slowest kickstarter period for a project is between the 10th to 20th day(for 30 days projects).

that said if just one/two big youtubers were to bring attention to this it would probably assure the success of the project.

being an old crpg fanatic I just hope this will succeed, best of luck to all you guys, looking forward to play the alpha!

[Miwiw]

I should get a job, I wasted so much good money during the last month, could have put it all here to good use. 

Anyway, I surely believe in you. This will be go fine!!

Good job on the name change for the Kickstarter.

Not many people know what CRPG is or was. It is more important to let them know what they are buying
