I'm curious to see how many other cult but cancelled TV shows will jump on the band wagon, either to fund a movie, or extra episodes online or something. It sets an interesting precedent.

Man, that has me thinking. How insane do you think a Kickstarter to get more of Firefly would be?.. :stare:

Oh god.. or Alf :catstare:

The Megatokyo Kickstarter has reached all non-porn stretch goals, so he added a bunch more.


Ignoring that incredibly cringeworthy first paragraph, I love how it's going to take him years to write a story that's based on content that already exists because he promised too much. Also, the game is gonna be a trilogy so that's several years to make part 1 of 3.

And despite all that it's not outside of the realm of possibility that he'll reach the porn stretch goal. Oi.

http://www.kicktraq.com/projects/fredrin/megatokyo-visual-novel-game/

Oh there is a distinct possibility he'll get 500k by the end of the thing. Even though Kicktraq overestimates by a mile because of early interest, the average daily interest is still really high. If it maintains $15k a day, it'll end extremely close to the 500k mark. If Gallagher does it right and starts creating higher tiers with exclusive physical goods, he can maintain that pace. That Kingdom of Death KS did exactly this and basically fed upon the initial 1200+ backers it got within the first two days. Very clever way to keep the KS total rising steadily.

Also, if it maintains that rate, it'll probably get a sharp last-minute push to get it over the edge once people realize HEY WE CAN GET PORN IN OUR MEGATOKYO'S IF WE DONATE ANOTHER $50K.


I honestly really hope it gets past $500k, just because Gallagher is probably the worst webcomic artist/writer when it comes to delivering on promises and creating content at a timely rate. He will gently caress it up, repeatedly, for years and years as he slowly grinds away at it. The only hope it has of getting done on time is everyone else associated with the project working with him. Unfortunately, all his parts are shared with at least one extra person, so when (not if) he inevitably flakes, someone else can carry the project forward without him.

For the time being, watching him flail about trying to create Stretch Goals that he clearly never had thought out properly is hilarious. Oh, part 3 you say? Where this godforsaken comic finally comes to an end? And only at $150k? He really doesn't want this thing to get to $500k, hahahahhaah.

Stating the obvious, they're completely bonkers.

Something profoundly awful must have happened to her during her teens, followed by intense cocaine abuse, and kicking the habit not before it left her brain partially fried. In it's place, a need to achieve perfection in appearance, and some loony new-age spiritual journey to replace and justify all the events leading up to this point.

It's quite ridiculous how much better she looks without all the makeup. Man society pushes women into some uncanny-valley dark corners.

Also important to make sure any image we use from SA is either public domain or has the permission of the artist/rights holder. You don't want Doobie Dogs to get a cease/desist from some copyright rules lawyer farm.

Frogout should be put in as simple terms as possible. The true absurdity of that meme, if embellished, would probably frighten the dude away from going through with it.

So, last week HuniePop was mentioned and people weren't sure if it was bad or just a bit too anime. Well, they've announced some physical add-ons and I think they've definitely leapt over the line here.


Well, I guess they know their market. :stonklol: $10k to go with 21 days on the clock, easily going to get funded.

Ehh, game like this, hugging pillows aren't that surprising, natural progression really. Tissue boxes, though? :ughh:

Still, not enough to truly get worried. Worry if they start offering tenga's inspired from the game.
