Mighty No.9 Kickstarter (PS4/XB1 & Vita/3DS are GO!) (Inafune/IC, $4M FUNDED)
- Thread starter Busaiku
- Start date
You mean Shantae.
HLD is already funded to completion. Shantae could use another 600-700k.

Did they ever reveal what the final ??? stretch goal was going to be?

Nope because there was 7 mins left on the countdown when the 4M stretch goal was hit.
It was going to be a pizza party for everyone :/

9 was a great throwback. 10 just seemed like a cash-in.
And Cosmic Star Heroine. I only have 1 backed game anyway. I'm wary of legal woes with Mighty No.9 and I'll just buy it when it releases for real in a couple of years. Everything else, I will back before they end.

This small group of developers can make a Mega Man like game for 4 million with tons of content for 7 different platforms. Capcom in the other hand can't do shit.

Anyone else worried about Unreal Engine on both PSVita and 3DS?
UE on Vita should be fine as long as they don't shoot for 60fps, but what about 3DS?

they can always use another engine for the vita/360 version. didnt another devoloper offer to do the 3ds/vita versions for them, with their own engine? maybe the 3ds and vita get a 2d game with pixel art?
We'll never know what's behind the final stretch goal.
What was behind it was almost certainly "A handy placeholder to make people think that there are stretch goals beyond those we've listed so if we *do* get past the final established goal, people won't assume that's it and it gives us a little time to come up with an *actual* stretch goal to fill that spot."
Poor shantae kickstarter. I doubt they will raise even 200K till the end. The strech goals are REALLY good though. I'd say even better than MNo.9 imho.

It was made obvious by the comment during the stream that they just came up with the online battle race mode the day before the KS ended.
I'd say the last original stretch goal was the 3DS/Vita ports. Everything else after was simply "lets come up with something so people continue to have a reason to donate" and it worked.
If you go back to the beginning of this thread, all people wanted were console/handheld ports and once those were achieved, all of a sudden, people wanted the call stage/8 bit music/online battle mode because why not?

Capcom has been mentioning "ongoing discussions" ever since they cancelled Legends 3.

I saw that first one of Mighty No. 4 on Twitter as well. Funny thing is that Inafune saw it too, and said "we should hire this guy".

Forget crowdfunding, now he's started crowddeveloping

I thought that was pretty obvious halfway through the KS. Every day they were flooded with fan concept art, fan character designs, original music remixes and even a few animations and sound effects.
We'd discussed a whole bunch of potential stretch goals over the past couple months, but tried to pick and choose the ones to highlight based on fan feedback (and of course development realities), and ultimately landed with what we landed with. We did decide to put the online race battle goal in fairly last minute, but it was built from a mix of ideas we'd been talking about for weeks already, plus one new bit (the dropping garbage enemies idea was new, I believe). Once we were able to confirm the final plan and the budget required to pull it off, then we decided to put it in - but again, the core ideas were on the potential goals list for a long time.It was made obvious by the comment during the stream that they just came up with the online battle race mode the day before the KS ended.

Not only are we going to get a great game, but this funding race has been one of the most fun to watch, simply BECAUSE of the fan response.

Oh so level design was never even mentioned as a possible goal?

Last two hours if what is says is accurate. Was asleep when it was on, so hoping I can see it too this way.
So glad this got to the next gen console stretch goal and I only just noticed (after the campaign completed) it got to the soundtrack remix which also sounds like it could be good.
I'm also looking forward to see the results they get with the Unreal Engine as it seems like a game that is a bit different from most UE games.

This would be so awesome. And having PC as the main platform makes it even more awesome. Honestly, I wouldn't mind KS projects for localizations, as greedy as that sounds. I'd give Square Enix extra money for DQM games
This would be so great. Not only because it'd look awesome (play with 8-bit soundtrack for better results!), but it'd justify my multiple-dippingmaybe the 3ds and vita get a 2d game with pixel art?

should'a backed early
I'm actually curious how they're going to come up with this in the first place.
I upped my pledge several times after pledging a small amount at the beginning, and with the way Kickstarter does it it makes it sound like you backed it for the first time. Wondering exactly when they derive someone's number at.
What I want isn't it the number on a t-shirt, but I want the NES USB cart with the front having the art from the game, but the back having the mighty number on it. That would be incredible.

A couple of fan art pieces I saw on twitter.
That was quick and mighty awesome.

Man, the timing of this was hilarious. Got announced on the last day of my vacation after I'd already spent my budget. Didn't know whether to laugh or cry
