Hopefully when that well dries up, any future employer will google his name and find it associated with this.

They're really common outside of the US where you have to carry $1 or £1 coins, they'll have a zippered compartment for them. In practice, they just make your wallet exceptionally heavy and bulky.

PostNouveau posted:I sure have seen a lot of "visual novel" anime games on crowdfunding sites. There's also a free, open-source program called Ren'Py that not only makes it easy to make your game, but it requires no licensing fee or anything to sell your final product. It's a zero-cost start-up if you're doing the assets yourself, sort of like why there were so many sprite webcomics back in the day. Write a bunch of dialogue, paste a character into the scene, add some music and cherry blossoms, then you have the next big hit.

Zybourne Clock posted:It's a portable coffee filter that connects with a mason jar. I think I have one of those around here somewhere, except it's plastic, works with any bottle I want, and it cost me 99 cents or something close to that. It's not an ~authentic, artisan~ filter though, so I will have to live in shame with the knowledge my poor knockoff can't be used to make coffee as tasty as the 27 dollar real-deal. I'll wager yours also fits over a container that won't get scalding hot once you pour in the coffee. Sorry if you missed out on ordering the mason jar koozie, enjoy burning the poo poo out of your hands once your coffee's brewed.

Isn't that a known scam on indie gogo? Take a legit kickstarter, copy it over and put it on flexible funding. The idea is to use a small scale project that looks like it will succeed on kickstarter and hope you make your money and split before the real project runner becomes aware of it. I've heard of it happening to comics or indie games people.

They'll probably do a breakdown post on this when the numbers are in, but the kickstarter blog did a post on the potato salad stats a few months ago. Here. The main take away is nearly 3/4 of the backers had already backed other projects. quote:Most of the project's backers were not new to Kickstarter: 72% were repeat backers. In fact, even when you include the newcomers, potato salad backers have backed an average of 15 projects on Kickstarter! So while this was a global joke on the Internet, backing the project became an inside joke among core Kickstarter fans. It's a similar story with people who backed the coolest cooler, that wasn't the only thing people backed. So basically people who back the larger campaigns have backed and will back other projects.

Phone posting so I don't know if this is the same one as last year, but there's another food scanner up for flexible funding on indie gogo. Only $100, too!

MrAptronym posted:Why are all the english VNs so much worse drawn? I don't mean to be praising glorious nippon's thriving porn game industry, but literally every aspect of this drawing is bad, the guy doesn't even attempt feet, and he gets five grand in his first week? Or is it that they only advertise the higher end creepy japanese porn games and these exist everywhere? Visual Novels are such a niche market in English, that I imagine you've basically got a captive audience if you appeal to VN fans with a specific fetish. It's why back in the day even badly drawn furry art could rake in money if it appealed to the dick-nipple cat-centaur fans. Transformation fetish fans especially have deep pockets and some pretty terrible standards, judging by the average art quality of this kind of thing.

While I do think Kickstarter should be responsible for obvious scams/impossible projects like that laser razor, you really do need to do your own research and critical thinking. Are you backing a product that already exists in some form, just needs funds to get to you like a book, comic, music album? Does the creator have previous successfully fulfilled projects or can stick to and finish a project? If worse comes to worse, can you afford the 20/50/1200 bucks you're giving away? I've only had one dud pledge in the time I've been using it, I mostly just back comics that are collecting funds for a print run. If you want a magic color changing shirt or an awkward e-ink typewriter go ahead, but don't be surprised if it doesn't pan out.

queserasera posted:https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safe_harbor_(law) Yeah, while the production process is approachable to any artist who knows Illustrator that's what makes it very easy to vector trace a simple cartoon screencap and send it off. I like buying ones from artists who produce their own designs, though .

It's definitely aimed at the people who are way deep into the bullet journal lifestyle which uses similar symbols to mark tasks done and separates them into today/soon/later style categories. Some people are really into the aesthetic of fancy notebooks and paper and stuff. I mean, I am too, but I'm too cheap to buy any of this stuff these days.
