1st Kickstarter Update (Day 1 - 242% funded!)


This post is quite self-explanatory - Day 1 of Forward’s Kickstarter is going very well! After only 3 hours, the campaign has achieved over 242% of its original goal. And it seems like it’s only going to grow!

What are your thoughts on the campaign? I’d love to get some feedback from you!

Support, Follow & Share the campaign here!

As I explained in previous posts, what I am really focusing on with this kickstarter is to find new testers for the game! Everyone who contributes to the campaign is automatically to a closed play test in February.

I really hope some of you join the campaign and that we can build together the last blocks of the game. Itch served me well in exposing the game’s concept and getting a lot of great feedback on the original 7DRL version. Now, I am excited to bring the game one step closer to being completed thanks to Kickstarter!

(PS: Also don’t forget to wishlist, it really helps!)

Congratulation on shipping a project. (Well just a matter of weeks anyway) That's no easy feat and it's easy to get lost in the scope creep mode. I hope you're really proud of you. I never saw a bad review of the game and I hope it continues this way !


As a side note, if you hang-out on IRC, come say hi on #gamedev-fr (on libera.chat server). We have a small community of french indies and employed devs. Expect seasonned advice, stories from the trenches and stupid puns.


Good luck for the launch !

Ah super je vais voir ça! Merci encore pour ton soutien :) je suis content que mon projet Itch devient un vrai jeu maintenant

Hello! Is there a way to support without going through Kickstarter?

(+1)

As of right now I’m focusing my efforts on the Kickstarter! As every backer will take part in a play test where I’ll gather feedback - but any help sharing the project to others is always welcome! And most importantly, thank you :)

Congratulations and awesome Game. Really enjoyed the Game Jam Version!

Thank you! It’s really exciting seeing the response to the KS!

Backed the KS. My feedback is that there is only a high-level mention of how the money will be spent (additional content and marketing). I'd like to see a more detailed breakdown of how the money will be budgeted, and how you arrived at the minimum of $750 for the project?

Yes, I will make an update detailing how the money will be spent! What I really wanted to underline is that the game is in a late stage of development and thus the money I am asking for is not to develop the game!
