Reveal Knob's embarrassing repressed fetishes in the [Indie Games] thread

Kickstarter is like an investment. If it is successful you get a video game as your return instead of cash. You should only back if you think you can trust the creator to finish the project. Too many people look at kickstarter as a preorder, and that should stop.
every other Kickstarter I've gotten in on seems to be going smoothly, or has finished successfully
I am!
Here you go:

I'm glad there is some legal recourse. Unfortunately it sounds like that lawsuit is being brought by the state of Washington, and only attempting to recoup the money of residents of Washington, so the rest of the backers are still fucked.
Yeah I hated the scrolling speed but thought the narrative and writing was good enough to not really care.
The other paths are very good and worth checking out imo
Yeah. Of course, the way the game is designed the harem route is best as a capper rather than an opener, so you messed up.
Would also say that, if you only do one, *Mute's route is much better than *Hyun-ae's.

I love a lot about Mute's route but Hyun-ae > you and me and Mute all together
Okay, is this about the route or the character?
Because Hyun-Ae is much less, well, a misogynistic basket case, and if I had to choose who I'm spending time with in a non-game context, it's probably not going to be Mute.
But in the game
It's *Mute's story. Choice is if you want to see it with the subject, or with someone who has even less insight than you do.
Edit:
Also
Why I fear the ocean.
Though, my all time favorite indie game still remains Iji.
My favorite game that defied expectations was Eversion
I love how it builds.
Like, Candy Box is "I had another crazy idea!"
A Dark Room feels like it knows what it is all along.
Why I fear the ocean.
I mean
The game plays out in the text, not in the comments.
I'll admit New Mute is pretty rad for sure, but I do not believe that Mute's path is "much" better than Hyun-ae's and they both come down to preference of the characters. I absolutely do think though that the harem path doesn't carry nearly the weight if you haven't at least done Mute's first. Though it'd be interesting to go into Mute's path expecting her suicide to somehow get prevented and then get quite the surprise.

I miss Red Dwarf marathons
I started replaying Iji a while ago, but stopped when I found out upgrading strength didn't make the kick do more damage. Being able to kick around the big enemies isn't worth it when it does shit all damage.
they had it at day of the devs
it sure is the game Grim Fandango with some better graphics
to be fair, Grim Fandango may as well be a new game for all intents and purposes to the majority of people who are seeing it get released. finicky hardware requirements and whatnot on the original release, and all that
This exactly
Having never played it, I want this new release to be a prettier version of the original
Rock Band DLC | GW:OttW - arrcd | WLD - Thortar
What a shame, it's only a better version of one of the best games ever made
which I am crazy excited for
Studio has released games before, and has experience with re-releasing it on Steam so I am stoked

You're a monster
Christ you're a monster
Amplitude
The Banner Saga
Broken Age
Death Road to Canada
Last Life
Massive Chalice
Republique
Shadowrun Returns
Wasteland 2
(bold for released)
And of those, the only one I actually liked was Broken Age
So I don't back many Kickstarters anymore
I don't back anymore because I backed pretty much only doublefine and I don't trust them anymore
Backed mighty number nine and shantae tho
I was pretty down on Shadowrun Returns, but that improved on it quite a bit.
I was given a free key for it because I was a backer but I disliked Shadowrun Returns so much I just gave it away
Later I learned that Dragonfall is supposed to basically be an entire revamp of the game, not just an additional campaign
So I guess I should've given that a shot
I've only actually beaten Broken Age. Barely played Wasteland 2, haven't started Banner Saga.
Now instead of backing stuff I'll just check on updates for successful kickstarters I'm interested in because I like seeing a little bit of the development process, then if it's still something I care about when it comes out I'll buy it. That's what I did with Shovel Knight.
Granted if Double Fine does another kickstarter I'd probably back that because I love Double Fine.
Then again there's projects I backed over 2 years ago that still haven't delivered everything (mostly movies or games, though they're still doing status updates so I assume they're still underway) so who knows.
