Victor Surge posted:Elodia I love the terrible buster sword model that represents his entire weapon showcase. God drat some people are super ignorant about what people are willing to pay for, even more ignorant thinking that it'd be so successful he laid down outrageous goals for his income. I've seen ones that are at least semi-reasonable, but expecting 30,000 - let alone 10,000 is just hilarious for something that looks this chintzy.

MyronGognitti posted:Free Halloween Video Games for Kids and Family Also, Disney will probably sue over the use of the name Haunted Mansion. OTON is hilarious because the one game sample they're using to show off its supposed autonomous game creation (Secret Maryo Chronicles) is a game that's been on Linux for a while and they're claiming it can "autonomously create games" even though it's just creating levels for a game that already exists and has existed since 2003 (if Wikipedia's anything to go by). Plus, their "CEO" had a press conference video (you can see it in the IGG pitch video, the part where he's at a podium in front of a sign that says "US Space and Rocket Center") that looked like he was addressing no one at all. Unfortunately it got made private, probably because people realized it was faked. Zeether has a new favorite as of 15:16 on Sep 1, 2013 |

In "good kickstarters" news - Mighty No 9 (a spiritual Megaman reboot by the series creator and his indie company) which went up several hours ago has just hit 460k. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mightyno9/mighty-no-9 I threw in 60 bucks myself. When I saw the project up there it was at 300k. It's been about 4 hours later and-HOLY MOLY.

Planned obsolesence as a selling point, great "green" credentials there guys! For that price, you could pick up a perfectly nice mechanical watch that you just wind occasionally and that never runs out. Even a regular watch has a replaceable battery which doesn't even need a bulky charger to keep going.

MyronGognitti posted:Free Halloween Video Games for Kids and Family Here is what always amazes me about godawful Flash games like this. They make their assets in MS Paint, move them over to Flash, and then proceed to publish with the worst possible JPEG compression. That's ignoring that they could have done whatever they did in MS Paint in the Flash IDE itself and then not have compression at all. I have a certain degree of sympathy for awful looking 3D games with terrible animations, because I know there's at least a bit of a challenge there. But, this? There's nothing. It's babby's first Flash game, and they want people to pay $1500 for it? Very, very rarely do I ever want to do the "Contribute a dollar, then tell the creator how terrible their project is" thing, but this time, the only thing stopping me is that inevitably this guy's grandma is going to come in and pay out whatever's left, and then I'll have given a dollar to this.

Even a regular watch has a replaceable battery which doesn't even need a bulky charger to keep going. At minimum, you do what the Tile guys do and say, "Oh, send yours in, pay a small replacement fee, and get it back," which is actually a fairly ingenious method of ensuring cash flow even after people have picked up all the Tiles they need. Instead, the plan here is literally, "Well, better hope we haven't hosed it up by then." I especially love their lip-service at the end to the replaceable battery, which everyone knows there is basically zero chance of occurring.

These aren't from KS, but youtube is filled with hilarious pitch videos. These guys are going to "revolutionize reading". From what I can tell their "platform" lets you write CYOA stories ... but for smartphones. I'll let the CFO and CTO explain it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZS927ZBOnY Sex and the Single Vegan - Original Pitch Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gSp0fe31CfA "dance pre-med" major: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TnXrHSgqAbA This is too easy.

SupSuper posted:His point isn't that the art is bad, but that they seem to intentionally make it worse than it has to be. Instead of drawing in MSPaint and importing to Flash, they could just draw it directly in Flash, or make the tiny effort to stop Flash from applying terrible JPEG compression all over it (if it's not already JPG'd in MSPaint). Examples of what happens when you don't:

Also they didn't do a crowdfunding campaign, you're probably confusing them with these guys: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/teampix/homeworld-touch-ios-android-and-homeworld-3-pc-mac (which predictably went nowhere since Gearbox bought the IP).

The thug kept pointing his gun at me. 'Are you deaf or something? I said, give me your wallet'. Little did he know he picked the wrong guy to mess with. I slowly slipped my hand in my jacket and reached for my I also tore every single tendon in my right hand because the wallet self defense comb also doubles as a saw. What's wrong with this IGG that sells meme figurines, besides the fact that they sell meme figurines? Well... IndieGoGo posted:The users, beside to get an awesome reward for your support, will experiment how the meme culture and user reactions traspases the virtual space and the virilization of information complete the circle going back to the internet. Just think, toys are the representation of internet characters. Then you will take a picture of your toys and share in internet again, creating new content from the real world, its very interesting landmark in culture communication. If you buy these figures, you're going to create a positive feedback loop according to the project creators. Eventually the entire universe will be filled up with memes, and we all die. Do the universe a favor, spend those 15 bucks on something else.
