Title: A friends android game kickstarter.
Post by: EchosofNezhyt on Fri 05/07/2013 17:14:22
A friend of mine made a kickstarter for his android game.
Is a 3D recreation of his popular Atomic Bomber game with some new features added in.
Its a angled on rails shooter with land deformation and water physics.
Anywho if your into that or android games or whatever check it out.

I had to read that page several times. 25k dollars is the modest sum he asks for (to, and I quote, do "graphical polishing" and "to add more aircraft, weapons, and enemies" to his mobile game).

Tell your friend good luck! :p

Yeah I saw that a bit ago.(I do agree with ya.)
His target audience is the people who bought atomic bomber. (Which was in the top 10 in android at one point, 4.6 star review with thousands of reviews.)
So he prolly just chose something high in case alot of people who liked the first one want this game. He has put a ton of work into it specifically coding his own engine and
I know the land/building deformation and water simulation took awhile to do. But I'd guess that some of money from this would be put to new games using the engine he made and stuff.
But yeah. I'll tell him you said goodluck.

Edit: Yeah he said he shouldn't have set it that high but you can't change it.

Dang, that's a shame because you don't see a cent unless you reach your goal, which, in this case, feels kinda unrealistic to me (we'll see).

Yeah it is gonna be pretty hard to reach I think. (Not sure if there is a wait time for projects that expired.)
He updated the post to reflect that funds not used on this will be used for future games using his engine.
