Coming to consoles, they even praise Xbone. Also tablets someday I guess. Also this fun quote:

"And we're also looking at other investment sources, because $1.5m, that was great, it gives us a lot of freedom and a lot of leverage and lot of time, but it's not enough to get the game finished. But we know that we can get that money."

Nothing like promising a game for X amount of money and then saying shortly after you can't finish it with that money.

Good thing I didn't back it

Dreamfall Chapters.

I meant to ask about double fine. How does it "work" for double fine?

They ran out of kickstarter money for Broken Age.

 

[aris]

so did the developers of shadowrun returns.

Next gen social features, biowaresque "choices," shitty action sequences, you name it.

Automatic QTE (AKA, movies)

1."We can only do the game with your support and money !"
2. "seriously, that's just pocket change you gave, we're getting the real money elsewhere lol!"

Fuck you.

They ran out of kickstarter money for Broken Age.

To be accurate:

To follow the plan they had to make the game as big as they wanted, they were going to run out of money. So they found a couple additional funding sources in order to not cut (as much) content from the game.

New update! http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/redthread/dreamfall-chapters-the-longest-journey/posts/564457

Last but not least, Dreamfall Chapters was recently nominated for a 'Notable Kickstarter of the Year' award! But actually you're the people who made this campaign notable in the first place, so what are you waiting for? Go and vote for yourselves, right here!

 

[evdk]

How does this work exactly? SRR was Kickstarted in 2012 IIRC.

 

[DeepOcean]

Why Massive Chalice is even on this list?

 

[Blackthorne]

Why Massive Chalice is even on this list?

Cause it helped fund another Kickstarted game without it's backers even knowing it! THAT'S mucho notable.

My mistake, I read the best kickstarter of 2013. I didn't noticed the "Notable" part. Yep, a train collision in slow motion is something notable too.

 

[PlanHex]

Did they intentionally leave out T:ToN because it would be unfair to have the most funded kickstarter for a game ever on the list? Or are they just extremely dumb?

Spoiler

The fact that they are holding a vote declaring something "of the year" in the beginning of August makes everything point to dumb

edit: Fuckin' spoiler tags. Fuckin' XenForo.

PayPal strikes again: http://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkai...money-for-kickstarter-hit-dreamfall-chapters/

 

[J_C]

"PayPal has contacted Red Thread Games and it appears the issue has been resolved."

Move along, nothing to see here.

 

[VioletShadow]

Can't wait for this game to come out. Dreamfall was one of the best adventure games evah and Chapters is going to be awesome! *runs fast*

Fuck you.

Never trust people who wants to do something (getting rid of publishers) but is not willing to risk his own money or free time to do it.

 

[Dreaad]

I think I would have preferred an 'enhanced' Beamdog remake than this abomination.

 

[abnaxus]

Anyone been to JourneyCon?

Choices! Now with social integration.

 

[Morgoth]

Wow this looks shitty and pointless.

 

[J_C]

Yeah, graphically it is pretty meh, but I have faith in Ragnar pulling off another great story. If the puzzles will be at least decent, I'm all in.

RPS has a 30 min video walkthrough, w/ and w/o commentary:
