This, however, is a steady and slow incline upways towards the goal. --- End quote --- I think the reason that Castle Story got funded so fast was that they had built up a pretty big following and it was pretty well known. Planetary Annihilation just kind of came out of the blue. :B |

So you are paying artists for models and coders for code, and the cofee and donute guy for donuts. Also Lava and Metal planets announced. |

Second of all: Castle Story's goal was $80,000. Planetary Annihilation's goal was $900,000. That's more than a factor of 10 - of course Castle Story reached it's goal faster. However, the Castle Story kickstarter was launched July 27th and currently has about $700,000 - Planetary Annihilation was launched August 15th and has over $1,100,000 pledged. Seems like Planetary Annihilation has plenty of support, especially considering NO work on the actual game has been done - the whole video is just a concept, a sketch. Castle Story has real, tangible, interesting gameplay. |
