http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/fourzerotwo/the-adventures-of-dash-a-2d-platform-and-puzzle-ad How do you make a kickstarter, with video of "gameplay," of a 2D platformer with no enemies, no puzzles, no nothing? Goddamn this is the laziest professional-made pitch ever. And asking $400,000!

Leovinus posted:What problem do you have with it, exactly? I'm not going to fund it and maybe the goal is a bit lofty, but there's a solid team of developers behind it and the limited gameplay videos they had of it looked like they had plenty of potential. I'd at least give the finished product a shot. How does it show potential? It has characters that run from left to right, and sometimes from right to left, and also jump. You don't need developers with credits to their name to make that, you need a Saturday afternoon and a copy of Game Maker. Why would you launch something with so little content, and show off just how little you have?

Zaphod42 posted:More CEOs are men than women, but its because more men are willing to put in more hours to make more money and get more promotions, where more women want to go home after the day and spend more time with their families. No glass ceiling at all, women just keep having babies and aren't willing to work long and hard like men.

And with the super-classy $1 goal, that makes the project essentially flex funding! Kickstarter's approval process is a total sham.

I'm still not getting why you didn't wait to put up the Kickstarter until you had some of this stuff. The only explanation I can think of is the delusion that "Hey, maybe people will flood us with money and we won't have to put in any actual effort."

DStecks posted:Are we really going to poo poo all over an attempt to do something with a legitimately unique concept, in a world where everything triple-A is yearly sequels and zero innovation? There's nothing innovative about it besides the lovely setting. It's paperdoll character dress up, fetch quests and profession gathering sans combat.

He's got to have nuked any kind of career by doing this, right? He was a tiny, bit-part which was a parody of a cult character, on a series with up-and-down success. He gets fired from that role, and then has several failed attempts to crowd fund a knockoff version of his bit-part parody. I'm struggling to imagine anything more depressing for an actor.

I'm in that subculture and I'd definitely wear some of their shirts-most puppyplay shirts are a bit too sexual for me.

theflyingorc posted:Kickstarter doesn't require you to accurately price what it costs to make things before you start a campaign. It'd be an easy sell too. "We're using the guts of old discarded/recycled smart phones, but with our new industry-changing software, to bring you a smartphone for under $10! Not only a good product, but good for the environment." Then take the money and run after posting a few "We're so close! Just a few more months!" updates.
