This game is gorgeous and I really want to see it succeed!

Oh, do. I'd be curious to see how many projects we've all backed, even if they successfully funded or not.

Are you kidding? I like kicking the publisher in the unmentionables and being kept in the loop of development of my favorite game devs!
I used to admire "it will be released when it's done", but anymore there's more to it than that. \
Ubisoft and Rayman... the game was due out on the Wii U at console launch... nope, delayed until a little bit ago... now... delayed until Ubisoft can justify it's sale by putting it out on every console -- delayed until fall 2013. The developer and most importantly -- the fans -- are quite upset.

Status : Offline | Wow, that's a fair number. Stiller. Thus far only two of my backed projects have made it, but Asylum will surely make it to #3. I backed Jane Jensen's project, but was leary of Kickstarter back then and backed through Paypal, so I guess that doesn't count. The game Homesick, just finished and made it.
If anyone is interested, Agustin just added a new update for Asylum, which includes a Matt Chat interview. I checked today and there are about 500 bargain slots left for $15. I figure that's about half the cost of retail for the game.

I see someone has started an new topic for KS backers. I should move there. )

Although I don't have much discretionary income, I did make a Kickstarter pledge for Asylum. It's my very first one.

I'm watching the campaign hopefully. I'd so love to see Memories added. I'm fascinated by ruin and the screenshots contrasting the various stages of decay are intriguing.
