Agreed. That isn't to say I don't want the Ducktales game, but this is the one that truly has my attention.

I think the Duck Tales looks too mixed and matched right now. Like it can't decide which way it wants to go, and it's just sitting in limbo with good gameplay. This is a much more cohesive project visually and it has fitting gameplay and a theme that matches it all. A real soul, if you will.

That's how I would put it. Duck Tales lacks a soul right now.

 

[BraXzy]

Does your pledge online get you a PC copy?

Yes. And if you want the 3DS or Wii-U version you have to up your tier to $15

 

[Data West]

Stop trying to make a rivalry where there isn't one.

 

[Teppic]

They should release that to the general public.

Yeah, I don't know why they haven't. They said before that a demo isn't planned until much later when the game is almost complete. But if there already is a working demo out there they could just release that. It would generate more pledges for the kickstarter.

A rival what?

 

[AstroZombie]

I have no interest in this, but I backed because of the nonchalant griffons.

 

[RumblingRosco]

Does your pledge only get you a PC copy?

Edit: I meant will you have the option to choose the platform you want or is it just a PC copy?

Wii U and 3DS game codes will be made available to everyone who pledges $15 or more. Upon release, you can choose (1) which version of the game you prefer: Windows PC, Wii U, or 3DS!

EDIT: Damn, totally beaten.

 

[thefro]

Just hit the $115k mark, so "Playable Boss Knight" is funded.

Cool Thanks! Means I could save on the tax, lol!

 

[DeleteMyAccountThankyou]

I tried to avoid backing projects on kick starter... then I watched the live stream last night. The holidays need to hurry up.

Yesssss. Come on, Mac version!

 

[BraXzy]

I sent Yacht Club a message suggesting they release the PaX demo so heres hoping ey?

Man, that would be perfect for 3DS and Wii U. An actual playthrough limit like 5 or something would frustrate/hype me off the planet.

They'll obviously bring out a demo on all platforms at some point.. Or it is very likely, but the pax demo won't be on 3DS I doubt, they'll be working on that.

But yeah when the time comes I hope they don't put a really low cap because that puts people off who want a good few tries.

Here's a timestamped link to the livestream archive for the completed song playback, for anyone who missed it live (like me):

Virt is a goddamn wizard.

 

[transience]

Wow, the Best Friends video seems to have given the funding a serious bump! Smart move by Yacht Club.

Yeah I was about to link to this in this thread. SO GOOOOOOD! Blows King Knight's theme out of the water and that was already good

Yeah man jumped like 2 grand in no time was looking at art on the page and it went way over 115 level. Awesome, now we get to vote on which knight we want to use.

I know the pace changes a lot on these things, but so far it's averaging over $5,000 a day. If this pace keeps up we should be over $150,000 (so, maybe just over playable boss #2).

 

[Nabs]

It jumped $4k in the last 2.5 hrs

 

[ULTROS!]

Seems like Sony contacted Yacht Games: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=52952013&postcount=1428

They actually just yesterday sent us an email, so we hope to be in contact with them soon. I'd really, really love to put this on a vita. I love that screen. So beautfiul

 

[abstract alien]

Is this game in actual wide screen(without the 4:3 borders I've seen)?

Seems like Sony contacted Yacht Games: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=52952013&postcount=1428

Good deal. With Sony's attitude, it's all but certain.

 

[I NEED SCISSORS]

Hmm, this makes the choice harder. Vita for dat OLED, or 3D on my soon to arrive XL..

 

[Criminal Upper]

Hope our video is helping! Gonna try and convince Machinima to re-air it on their main channel, so 7 million+ of their subscribers will see it.

And that's why we love you guys. Now get back to tormenting Bear Grylls! Toss 'em into the shame car.

What 4:3 borders? It's widescreen in the demo they've shown and in all screenshots I've seen...

Nice, that's good news.

Haha yeah, will be tough for me. Everything looks nice on Vita, but parallax scrolling is hnnnngh in 3D.

I guess I glanced at that screen shot and mistook the sides as borders some how. Thanks for clearing it up.

I kinda dig the framing in that shot. It certainly looks like there are borders, but it also gives that part of the stage a really distinct and claustrophobic look.

 

[CDX]

Yacht club was nice enough to send us the PAX Demo, so here's me and my dumb friend's full playthrough of it.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=77elof_AZbk&

Came out pretty well!

Wow, the Best Friends video seems to have given the funding a serious bump! Smart move by Yacht Club.

It's over $120,000 now, earlier tonight just a few hours ago it was at $113,000. That's great considering it was averaging $4,000-5,000 a day.

That youtube video really seems to have got a lot of backers.

I'm still hoping it can at least get to the challenge mode by the end.

 

[dallow_bg]

Seems like Sony contacted Yacht Games: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=52952013&postcount=1428

That would be just lovely.

 

[duckroll]

If there's a good bump on the final day, it could it 200k.

 

[abstract alien]

If there's a good bump on the final day, it could it 200k.

This title seems like it could be a really big hit for them. It's garnered a lot of attention from the industry, and even some for how kickstarter can be used in a very positive light. If they can manage to get this project up, and bump another successful game out afterward, I feel like the doors could really swing open. More than they already have.

 

[Nabs]

Egoraptor just pimped it out on twitter. I hope they send him a copy of the Pax build. 200k might not be out of the question.

 

[Instro]

Been meaning to pledge on this since it started, the real decision is whether I want it on the PC or WiiU. I suppose WiiU would be better considering it will inevitably be $2 during a Steam sale and then I can just double dip.

 

[Dan]

Seems like Sony contacted Yacht Games: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=52952013&postcount=1428

Please please please hit PS3 (or PS4) sooner or later! More platforms the better.

 

[AstroZombie]

I asked them about the demo and they had this to say:

The demo is VERY rough around the edges and honestly not ready for public consumption. We post anytime someone is streaming it via our twitter account, so if you can't get enough of the gameplay of the pridemoor level, follow us @yachtclubgames

 

[zroid]

It's very close to the next milestone.

 

[AstroZombie]

They'll be doing an Reddit AMA and a stream on Destructoid on Tuesday.

 

[Glass Rebel]

They got a huge bump, might become their second best day.

As long as it doesn't become exclusive and the game is the same everywhere, I'm down with this. Make that money, Yacht Club! Just don't fuck over your original backers.

 

[Yazan]

This looks so amazing. Actually thinking about bumping my pledge to 30 just to have to for 3ds and Wii U.

 

[lunchwithyuzo]

I just upped my pledge to $30 for both 3DS & Wii U codes. We gotta get to $160k/gender-swap people!

 

[Glass Rebel]

It won't. They will probably just look into Vita and PS3/4 after the other versions are released.

 

[zroid]

I'm actually amazed. It has a really good shot at hitting 160k with the usual last minute push. A couple weeks ago it was looking like it might hit 100k at best.

 

[TreIII]

The last few days for any good Kickstarter with a good deal of media presence are usually the best to watch. Nothing generates funds faster than last minute boarders on the hype train!

I have every confidence that this could likely reach the 180,000-200,000 range six days from now.

 

[Teppic]

Linux / MAC stretch goal reached.

 

[RumblingRosco]

It's averaging $5,400 a day now. At $130,000 right now with 6 days left; it should reach $160,000 without a problem... I'd love to be pleasantly surprised and see $180,000.

So GREAT! I hope the game gets Greenlit on April 17th .
