A kickstarter game that is having trouble raising funds, realized they screwed their pitch and tries again....

Not interested in the game but I LOVE the effort they put into this.

At the last min they reached their funding goal...

Talk about a close shave!

Talk about a close shave!

Also the kickstarter is only supposed to fun the Alpha version, there are investors that are supposed to take it the rest of the way but where unsure and wanted to see if there was demand... Having such a close shave may not be a good thing for securing the rest of the funding.

Since that KS is taking part in the "kick it forward" 5% campaign, I clicked the logo to read about it, and ended up finding this cool game sequel...

The thing that made me go "hey I will share with RW" is that their video is totally in the style of "Tom Goes To The Mayor" (visually I mean -- like this:
)

(edit: actually, a taste of the same wtf-sense-of-humour as well! "Oh, possum...")



... so, yeah, I got a "kick" out of it. (Plus the original Metacell game looks pretty fun!)
