Looks fun. Although the people in the pictures look meh.

edit: Watching the kickstarter video. Damn, this looks awesome.

I'd bet on the goal surpassing $500k. Probably not $600k.

I don't know the project hit a HUGE productivity wall... I mean HARD!

I've never seen such a fast growing and consistent project just suddenly stop earning money.

Nah, look at the trend. It's continuing pretty normally.

But if they don't make it to $400k I will have to increase my pledge.

If it gets to 400k I might have to ask someone if they will let me piggy back off their donation in return for a Steam or GoG game. (The two people donation packages thing)

I am surprised it had a sudden surge, though I still say it is unlikely that they will reach the 500k that is for sure.

I'd still bet on $450-475k... and that's not counting the paypal donations, which might add up to $15-20k. In fact, if it gets that close to half a mil, it'll probably get a last-minute surge. So, I'd bet on it being juuust over $450k or juuust over $500k at the end.

I also think we'll get Engineers unlocked by next monday, so let's see what happens then.

The last point I want to make is that all stretch goals are eventually planned, but by reaching them we make sure they'll be in the game at release.

PS I could probably send you a copy. Just about everyone I know is already getting in on it.

I'd love a copy, the offer to gift a GoG or steam game to you is still open as well.

This is a game I honestly don't think will be as good as it seems, but that I honestly cannot withstand at least trying it.

Like that evil vicious starbound. My senses tell me "Noo! its Terraria 2.0 don't get it" and my other senses tell me "YES! It is Terraria 2.0 you have to get it!"

Seems like a Facebook civilization game with good graphic.
But eh, I'll check it out.

Given that without Beta access the add on is 10 dollars and with beta access the add on is 15 dollars.

Yeah...

Whelp it looks like Co-op is a forgone inimitability and the new stretch goals have been announced and they are!

Not very exciting.

Though Festivals at least add something interesting if we get to that point.

Upgraded musical score is not worth mentioning as it is one of those intangible goals like "better gameplay". Which is that it is vague to the point where it is meh.

Three Playable Kingdoms is actually one I'd prefer the game not have at least the way they are doing them (slight bonuses only). I actually would consider it an improvement to scrap them and instead introduce a bit more variety into the one kingdom. Lucky for me it is fantastically unlikely this goal will be met. I doubt this game will raise 200k in 8 days. Mind you I am probably just not seeing the big picture.

I mean I guess for Co-op multiplayer it would be nice if people could distinguish themselves. Though I was hoping there would be ways to look differently from your buddies without such (like color choosing and building style selectors)

They released two preview videos and suffice it to my negativity... The first one is extremely annoying.

The second one is fine.

So the co-op is finally out. Like Neonivek said, I am not really happy with the three kingdoms nonsense. I'll keep my fingers crossed that no insanely rich yet remarkably insipid billionaire invests 200k into the game within the next 8 days.

I think it's safe to say it'll only reach, at very most, $550k, and that with a big final kick.
