Less than 1k to the main funding goal.

Double posting, but the game has officially met its main funding goal of $300,000. Time for that first stretch goal: Additional animations, $325,000.

It's a celebration bitches!
Can we know what game?

They are fast approaching 400k with 35 hours to go.
This is gonna be a tense one.

Yep. Seems they haven't actually changed the phrasing on the reward tiers since they realised porting might not take as much work as they thought (they thought they'd need to hire someone else to do it).

The main enemies are the boss monsters, but there are some smaller enemies. The ones shown off most off are these wraith things that can appear and attack you; not sure about hunting smaller prey for survival but honestly wouldn't be surprised.
Also just realised why there's been such an upswing in funding. Not only is the campaign in its final 48 hours and all, but turns out they got Pewdiepie to do a video of him trying out the game.

425k. This is at least the third best day of the campaign, and it'll probably get pretty close to second.

Backed $15 for the PC version, can't wait for the game to come out
Yeah, that was probably a huge coup for them. Glad it's doing well, hopefully the extra funding leads to a solid game in the end.

Double Backer is for Steam only
Double Backer Plus is for all Platforms. (Steam/Windows/Mac, PS4, Xbox One)
That's not what I'm asking, I want this on PS4, I have the $25 option (backer plus) , however if I upgrade to the $50 option (legion plus) can I get access to the beta on PC and then still get the PS4 version when it comes out?
See the $25 option is 'any format' - but I'd quite like to be in the beta, but that's via steam.
edit - ah, I see the paypal description is a little clearer;

So I woke up to the game nearly crossing 440k. Neat. The orchestal score is pretty much guaranteed then, which given the game's inspiration, feels almost necessary. They've slotted in a stetch goal at 500k for expanded environments and the like, but it looks like additional bosses won't happen. A shame, but I suppose that means they just have to make the main five the best that they can.
It's a shame there won't be more bosses in the base game, but you have to give it to them for sticking to what they think is achieveable and not promising something they wouldn't be able to deliver. Hopefully if it's successful there'll be additional bosses added after release.

Wish the best of success for this team of 3.

Upped my pledge from $30 to $50
That way, I get to gift a console version to someone else, rather than just another steam code

450k on kickstarter. Orchestral soundtrack is a go.

Backed this a few weeks back. Looks excellent

465k, nine hours to go. Maintaining this pace should see the expanded environment stretch goal met, even without PayPal being factored in (would be interesting to know what that's at in general). Jacksepticeye has covered the game too, he is hyped as hell about it.

Barely any sites have covered it, so not many eyeballs from GAFers to check it out.C'mon guys! I dunno where the love on GAF for this game is!

I only recently found out about it, been praising it on Twitter. I think it'll get more attention when press get hands on and more footage is out there. Give it time.C'mon guys! I dunno where the love on GAF for this game is!
The Kickstarter ends in a couple of hours, so it's not much time!
And someone add "Shadow of the Colossus" to the title, that would help!

In for one steam copy. I hope for all the best for this little team, they look to be well on their way to making a solid game.

...it only occured to me after watching the boss kill animation again that the 'Prey' in the title is indeed a thematic pun, hence also the stylising of the E into a praying figure.

I know we're not likely to hit the stretch goals for new bosses, but I hope they do them anyway. The wording made it sound like people who didn't back it would pay for them anyway ("free DLC for backers") so I hope they make them as just standard paid DLC.
JonnyDBrit

That's possible. Suppose it'll depend on how much success the game sees - ie, does it make enough in sales to really fund post-release development. Not every game can be Shovel Knight after all.

I've always wanted if not a sequel, a spiritual successor to SOTC. Never heard of this game till this thread but now I'm definitely interested.

4 Hours left, Orchestra goal was hit awhile back and they're damn close to Expanded Environments.

I've been going back and forth all day, but I'm in for $50. I loved Shadow of the Colossus, so hopefully this scratches that itch.

490k. Less than 2 and a half hours to go. Officialy the highest earning day of the campaign, though not yet by much
