The devs have set up a forum for discussing the game: http://discourse.stonehearth.net/
This looks really sweet. Will be my first kickstarter fund I think. I am a sucker for exclusive puppies what can I say.
For anyone interested in this type of game in the mean time though, check out Timber and Stone. It released a few weeks ago and it is similar to Stonehearth, although it looks like Stonehearth has a lot less micromanagement compared to Timber and Stone. Both look to be great for different reasons though.

I joined the stream late, has there been any game play??
No, not going to be on this stream at all. He tried earlier, but the version of the game on his comp is too early.
The recording of the livestream is here: http://www.twitch.tv/radiantentertainment/b/400154125

Will we get any game play footage on the livestream?
could be, but it will be mostly about Q&A and watch how he creates the new Magma Smith with the Same Tools all people will get at the end
updated stretch goals
Great Stretch Goals
New Class - Geomancer: Manipulate rock and stone to bolster your city's builders, flattening or raising earth as the cause demands. Craft tireless golem workers so everyone else can take a much needed break.
Enemy Faction - Elementals: When conditions are just right, unstoppable giants of fire, rock, ice, and air rampage across the land, destroying everything in their path. Appease them or prepare your defenses...
New Class - Engineer: Fiendishly complex traps. Steam pumps. Black powder. In his moments of genius, this Master Craftsman boosts your town's productivity with miraculously advanced tools and weaponry. In his other moments....
Seasons!: Horde food for the winter and farm up a storm in the summer as the four seasons cycle over your town. Building, farming and fighting all gain new depth as rising temperatures parch the land and falling snows drive your settlers indoors.
Alternate Planes: Many dimensions lurk beneath the fabric of reality. Lured by the promise of untold riches and arcane secrets, your bravest townsfolk open portals to previously unknown realms. What could possibly go wrong?

At the current rate, they should be able to get enough backing to add seasons and co-op multiplayer. I would be pretty happy with that. Everything else is just icing on the cake.
It looks like Generikb (a popular youtube guy) is going to be doing videos on Stonehearth. Got pre-alpha access from the devs.
He just put a video up: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkH8QxujSpc

New stretch goals announced!
$450k - Festivals: Join your townsfolk as they celebrate popular holidays like Solstice, Harvest, and The Monday of The Twelve Golden Fruit. Properly provisioned festivals produce happy, energetic workers. Forgotten events invite the wrath of greater powers...
“Though color variations make it clear at which point in its cycle the banana ought to be eaten, the proper way to hold the fruit is still debated. Though all scholars agree that the curved, nearly hexagonal shape fits the human fist, accounts vary as to whether the golden peel should be pulled back from the stem (as is traditional) or up from the black nub at the bottom. Either way, so please the gods.”
--Celebrant Jordan, Treatises on the Rituals of The Monday of the Twelve Golden Fruit
$550k - Upgraded Musical Score: The Japanese RPGs from which Stonehearth draws its artistic inspiration were as much defined by their soundtrack as their visual style. Help us draw on the talent of a variety of professional musicians to create an enticing score that will stand up to a decade’s worth of play.
$600k - Three Playable Kingdoms: Hardy explorers and canny traders join our hardworking settlers in their quest to build, farm, and fight their way across the land. At the start of each game, choose one of the three kingdoms, each with its own unique perks. Click here for a high resolution version of the image of the three kingdoms.
mhh 600k looks good, dont forget the last 5-4 Days Push
Like Among the Sleep, 5 days before the end people thought it will not hit the 200k and at the end they had 250k

I'm cautiously optimistic; I was pretty convinced Divinity: Original Sin couldn't make it to $1M but things went for the better.
On the other hand, I wouldn't be too mad if we couldn't make it to $600k: honestly I'd be pretty ok with the alternate Planes.
5Days 8hours left, looks really good. The last 4 Days was already over the avg. per day and today is already, with 7hours left, the 4th successfull day
Maybe this video helped

600k should be easy, maybe we will get to 700-750k

I whinny my fervor lowly, for his length is not as great as those of the Hylian war stallions
Looks like it will be close, but i'd actually rather have a more polished single kingdom personally.
First kick-starter I've backed in a awhile, via pay-pal this time.
Including paypal they've just broken $550k so the upgraded musical score is in!
The kicktraq trend is back over $600k, so I guess with paypal included we're pretty much guaranteed to have the three races in the game.
At this point I guess they'll be worrying about trying to get new devs and artists they can trust into the game so they can actually implement all this stuff...
I'm kinda glad 'cos that fan-created music used in the lead-in to the last livestream was a bit average.

This looks great. Backed $30.
they are already over 600k with paypal, but i believe they dont want to do more Content related Stretch Goals because if would be just too much. You can´t just add content after content ^^
I think they are already very happy with the amount of money and we will only see some small neat 650k/700k stretch Goals :>
And in december starts beta with around 20.000 Beta Testers, which already have access to the Modding tools. There should be a massive amount of mods during release
