This looks like shit n that's why you shouldn't give ur money to them

What kind of reasoning is that? Of course they will try to do their thing even if the kickstarter fails. What's so bad about it?

I think some people would just rather invest in Kickstarters that are actually make-or-break, rather than money grabs or elaborate pre-order campaigns. I want projects that need an infusion of money to be completed because the creators do not have the labor or materials they need. This just seems like hobbyists who openly admit they're just going to spend the funds on booze and candy.

I had that last piece of concept art as a wallpaper for several months (if not years). Wish i had a source to it though, but that much I'm certain.

I'm also firmly in the camp of "this looks like a scam"

 

[HadesGigas]

It doesn't seem like a scam as much as horribly misleading and vague. Sorta the same thing I guess.

Labelling things that are clearly cg cutscenes as "game footage", being very obtuse about the actual game, how complete it already is, who these "volunteer developers" are, and why they need money.

He has updated with some screens of the actual game:

Also an interview with some iphone website that's a bit more clear than anything on the kickstarter page:

Yeah, this looks really awful. The animation of the FMV (that is not actually the game) looks nice, but the game itself looks non-existent. I also find the selling of product placement at the $5,000 reward tier to be particularly hilarious.

Good luck releasing an iPhone game with that much FMV.

 

[Risk Breaker]

This actually looks kinda Cavia-ish so it's one of the most promising KS I've seen but "90s CGI!!".

Good luck releasing an iPhone game with that much FMV.

Whats the size limit on iphone games?



I would love to read the script, could be videogame's Birdemic.

Those screens look okay. They probably look more outdated in motion. Like they have some decent art/ideas but lack the skill to realise them in game. Or because they aim for earlier iThings.
