Cool kickstarter project, shame it doesn't look like it will get funded. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/486250632/republique-by-camouflaj-logan Seems to me that kickstarter can only work with the nostalgia of old ip's and not innovations :( -
Re: R
There are a couple of things that don't jibe well with me. The first is that they want half a million just to build a partial demo of their game that they can put to investors to get another half a million. Games like Hydrophobia were built on a budget a third of that size ($350,000). They also seem to be under the… -

250K is more then enough for Pete's sake on what they're trying to do, even 100K would have been enough! Sorry, but as much as I wanted the Rep to be funded, it's outrageous. A bunch of peeps who people haven't heard about in the industry, prototyping a 'workable' version of the game on the Iphone for a tag of 500K, and… -
Re: R
I think the biggest problem for it as a Kickstarter project has just been the choice of platform. This is the kind of title that console and PC gamers are interested in, as the devs themselves point out. But crucially, while plenty of gamers do have iphones and buy games for them, gaming media sites just don't really cover… -
Re: R
Hmm, yeah. Probably more to do with the ios community not being ready for serious games like this rather than anything inherently wrong with kickstarter. Hope they get a late push on this, want to play. -
Re: R
That and again: if 1/2 of the people who thought it sounded interesting but then realized they can't play it at all they would most likely forget about funding it, and at the point the developers added the PC to the list, the people who did visit their kickstarter had already forgotten about it. -
Re: R
Man, looks really interesting. A shame if it doesn't funded. I think you guys are right for the most part about old ips, but at least there are games like banner saga that are the outliers. Though that's the only example I can think of that's a new successful IP on kickstarter :( -
Re: R
That sounds pretty volatile in that if you still need "x" amount of money and don't get it then you will inevitably arrive at that hurdle at some point? Also in regards to games it's more that anyone can write up a design document, no doubt a mod team could hash something together and get it on there as some sort of… -
Re: R
Backed this once it went PC (I don't have an iOS device). Really hope it gets a last minute boost. -
Re: R
I got to play a little at work, and this is one of those "Buy Now" games. I know this game will go down in price, but geeze, if you have $5 buy it now. Like you said Mats Effect, this feels like a "proper" game. I need an iPad... Playing on an iPhone5 blows donkey tail.
