It was actually really useful for one reason: If you had a visual blocking your mixup, you could look at the little version to see it.

Depending on the intent of the designer, this could be a good or a bad thing though.

 

[Ohnonono]

Awesome stuff... now plz Vita so I can actually put the time into it !

 

[jett]

This is really quite amazing. Congrats to LabZero.

[Rentahamster]

[NEO0MJ]

I am thinking about getting this game on PSN because some of my friends play it.

Is the DLC stuff coming to PSN and if so when?

It's coming to PSN. According to the team they take 3-4 months per character so maybe the first will be in June.

I need MikeZ flippin dat paper as an avatar. Like, right the fuck NOW!

aw man, we can't have that. hustle a dollar from somewhere and throw it up when they get the paypal for direct contributions set up

hmm, i donated twice (kawaii emergency) so maybe i can get ravid to send you a vote link in my stead

 

[Caelestis]

Congrats guys on reaching this far! I am really happy for you.

Will be voting for Minette and Aeon. They seem awesome.

God, Infrit and LLND's faces are PRICELESS.

Spoiler

Vote Minette!

 

[Mista Koo]

Ok I think I'm settling on:

• Eliza: Cool design and wicked Darkstalkerishness.
• Samson: Unlimited potential to top the craziness of Mahvel's monsters (Amingo/Shuma Gorath).
• Andy: Honestly a bit plain, but I love joke characters and enjoy playing both Dudley and Steve.
• Stanley: His glasses are cool and he's a shark.

Black Dahlia and Umbrella are coming sooner or later so I might not vote for them. Also might vote for Beowulf and Panzerfaust (both are so cool, but not crazy enough )
I'd really enjoy playing Minette and Venus, but I hate their designs.

 

[added_time]

I haven't even played this game but I started following the campaign after seeing all the hype of this fundraiser and loving the design of that bigband character. I wonder what the budget was for making the entire Skullgirls game? It seems like they could have probably funded an entire sequel instead of just a few characters if they knew so much money would be raised!
I am definitely gonna be buying the game on Steam!

$1.7 million

Very cheap compared to the average costs of games on consoles these days. Cheap as it gets for fighting games before you dip into doujin stuff.

Ifrit's face in this one. lol

TRB at it's prime

I remember watching the show that week and cracking up all night long.

 

[SerRodrik]

It's just now hitting me that 5 characters is more than half of the entire current cast of characters of Skullgirls. That's a pretty damn substantial increase.

 

[so1337]

SolarPowered, do you remember which was the stream where they showed the cels?

 

[Huw_Dawson]

I am kinda concerned how they're going to fund Robo-Fortune ($725k goal, or $100k for her) as well as Mysterious Character #2 ($825k, aka $100,000). That's a combined total of $200k for two characters, and even if you consider RF only getting 50% of what it costs to make a character, you're left with a funding shortfall of $100,000... D:

Keep in mind that the stream is pretty low res.

Well, if the plan is to do them in order, then by the time they get to Robo-Fortune and the fifth character, they should have earned whatever they may be short of through console and PC game sales and late-entrants paying for older DLC chars after they've stopped being free.

Especially with the MvC style mechanics and Double being a mish-mash of other characters.

 

[Oldschoolgamer]

Congrats! I really didn't think things would come this far.

EX Ms. Fortune... *shivers*

I heard Marie and Minette were terrible at their jobs. Vote Annie and Isaac.

 

[Venfayth]

Venus > Isaac > Aeon > Feng

for me

Don't think linking directly is a good idea.

Thanks, man.

Sure

 

[The Abominable Snowman]

What characters exactly were funded? Sorry I havent kept up much.

 

[HotGarbage]

This may have already been pointed out but final day contributions saw a ~62% increase over first day contributions going off of Slappy's chart. Granted said chart separated days at 12AM EST meaning that the final "day" included more than 24 hours, but still.

EDIT:

It's 4chan, honestly what do you expect? . There are absolutely no inhibitions when it comes to posting and trolling is the norm. The community on /vg/ is far more rational, actually, but still nuts by typical standards.

What characters exactly were funded? Sorry I havent kept up much.

Squigly, Big Band, 1st Mystery Character, Robo-Fortune, and the 2nd Mystery character. Huw_Dawson raises some valid concerns I guess though. I don't think ANYONE was expecting us to reach the 2nd mystery character I mean holy shit.

 

[AAK]

What characters exactly were funded? Sorry I havent kept up much.

Squigly, Big Band, and the 2 remaining will be fan voted from the list of 32 characters in the indiegogo page.
