Kickstarter SOS: Candle - A Dynamic Graphic Adventure needs our support

Hey, guys... It's been a while since I've created a thread. And tonight I felt extra compelled to do so because, while browsing Kickstarter and multiple gaming sites, this project came to my attention:

Candle is a dynamic graphic adventure. It inherits the spirit of classic cinematic adventures like Out of This World or Flashback, and the gameplay mechanics of classic platformer adventures like Abe's Oddyssey and Abe's Exoddus, or Heart of Darkness. However, we want it to go one step forward, and so we have brought together all the key features in those games to create a unique title focused on calm puzzle resolution but with a modern and dynamic control over the character.

The project's 9 days away from getting funded... Or disappearing into sad obscurity. The video the team put up is one of the most well-made I've seen for this type of funding proposal, and the evident love to their craft melted my heart while watching it. These are very passionate people, working on a game that reflects all that, and I'd love to play it. So, I don't know if this type of thread is allowed... I sure hope so.

Because this game needs all the help we can give it.

p.s. And before anyone asks: no, I am not related to the development team in any way, though I wish I was.
 
These guys seem pretty cool. I love the hand drawn art assets and it seems the team has their shit together, I'll back as soon as I get the chance.
 
Looks like a really nice graphic adventure, anyone who likes graphic adventures should back this, they are asking for a reasonable amount and they seem to know what they are doing.
 
This looks pretty cool, I'm slightly reminded of Amanita's Samorost series.

Some interesting stuff coming out of Spain in the last couple years, Deadlight, Unepic, of course Mercurysteam's stuff... pretty nice.
 
I wish Kickstarter guys would stop including limited tiers with such a big discount. I'm interested in the game but not enough to go with anything besides the base game level, and $15 is too much when I could have had the same thing for $10. Judging from the numbers, I'm certainly not the only one.

If you must use a limited tier as a carrot for early adopters, maybe you shouldn't charge 50% more for the unlimited equivalent tier.

Yeah, I'm with you. That $10 tier is a sweet spot for me. I wouldn't mind all that much if the game didn't turn out that well at that point.
 
Is Spain now supported in Kickstarter, or the studio uses a US/UK account ?

I know for sure UK got in, but i am not sure about Spain or other countries

Would be great if more of Europe was supported
