Yeah, given how things generally go, he'll probably only do a handful of songs. Hardly new thread worthy.

I didn't think the campaign would get this far this soon, we might crack the last stretch goal!

NG+ and physical gave Sabotage a huge burst of momentum

Yeah, funding & momentum were really down on 3-30. Then the next day, saw a huge boots with the NG+ stretch goal, 3 days later from that, they did the physical release announcement (which was their #2 highest funding for a single day, right after the launch), and today's seen a boost from the composer announcement. Generally Kickstarters don't have this good of funding in their middle.

Hard to crack something they don't reveal or put a dollar amount on. I know they will eventually, but it's obviously going to be based on the current pledge trend.

I dont think I've seen that many backers before for a pixel art indie game. I can only imagine how much funding they will get in the last 48 hours.

Mitsuda is huge despite another poster downplaying the fact. Now imagine if they have a collab with Uematsu...

Update 7: Final Stretch Goal: Free DLC for backers. · Sea of Stars

Well, here we are with just 9 days left to the campaign! To be honest, we did not expect to make it that far, and certainly not that fast. Our vision for stretch goals was always clear : we would not overcommit, we would not bloat our game, and we would not cause delays because of them. One...

Our vision for stretch goals was always clear : we would not overcommit, we would not bloat our game, and we would not cause delays because of them. One thing we did want to do as soon as the game launched, however, was to start working on a fully fledged side-adventure DLC called "Throes of The Watchmaker" demanding multiple months of dev, which would expand even more on the world of Sea of Stars and provide additional insight on the narrative overarching all of our games.


To show how grateful we are to everyone who has backed the project, we are announcing that our final stretch goal is to make this DLC free to all backers who pledged for a copy of the game. As it will be better enjoyed without spoilers, that's all we will say about this clockwork conundrum for now.

Credit where credit is due: Throes of the Watchmaker is a cool name.

So I'm playing through the Messenger for the first time & last night, I got to the point of the game that references Sea of Stars & I have to admit, that was pretty awesome.

Well damn, I thought whatever stretch goal they announced was going to be already reached when announced, but not more than 300k more than the one before it. Either way, damn it's been such a strange campaign finding-wise.

Having the final stretch goal not be a stretch goal at all but a promise to give DLC to backers for free is a really clever move. Creates goodwill which can lead to backers upping their pledges & trying to spread the word for you.

I finally decided to give this game a look and wow. I didn't expect to see actual game play and it's gorgeous.

Wow it's going to blow past $1,000,000 (CAD)
First title I've Kickstarted since Mighty No. 9, very excited for this project. Glad to see their success.

First up is the reveal of the game's starting area!

I'm torn... I know I should probably back this (would be a first time for me) but 100 for the physical copy it's somewhat expensive...

Normally when I hear about an RPG like this I assume it'll suck (funny prejudice I guess). But I took one look at what they're showing here and it looks fantastic.
