Kickstarters and you

There's a cool new kickstarter up for a Mother/Earthbound Beginnings documentary called Mother to Earth. Looks like it could be pretty interesting, plus there's physical DVD and Blu-ray reward tiers and some other cool stuff.

I know the co-producer Christian. He's a pretty awesome guy.

I curiously clicked on that link and went to the page. I saw that there were 320 pledged at that point and suddenly it went to 319. I'm guessing someone decided they'd rather not commit to the spiritual successor of DaiKatana. 

Joking aside, I'll keep an eye on this.

Season 3 of Boss Fight Books.

I've been wanting to buy the collection of these, but at $150 for the first 10 books, $15 for book 11, and $100 for the 5 books from Season 3, I'm not looking to drop $266 for 16 books.

Saw this point and click this morning and thought it looked pretty neat:

Quest of Souls and Blackroom cancelled.  Both will likely run another kickstarter in the future.

Lynn and the Spirits of Inao

Inspired by Hayao Miyazaki and old school Super Nintendo games.

Somehow I never shared this one

Niten

This one ends soon, probably won't succeed, but it sounds like a "Gone Home" type of game, set on a remote Japanese island.

Lynn looks cool. I'll give them a pledge. Thanks for the suggestion!

That's pretty sweet! I'll have to look at this one more closely later, but thanks for the heads-up!

Did they end up getting outside funding? Pretty cool if so.

no updates on the kickstarter from when it was canceled about a day ago so.... I'm with the comment section in assuming that they ran into legal issues regarding the kickstarter.

They received outside funding so the tables will actually release sooner since they can start work ahead of schedule.
