Shovel Knight is the only good crowd funded game I've played.
The others be looking suspect.
FTL was great, I know that for a fact.
There are a lot of really well-received crowd funded games out there. I haven't played a lot of them, because backlog, but there are a lot. Chivalry: Medieval Warfare, the Shadowrun games, Volgarr the Viking, the Banner Saga, Divinity: Original Sin, Book of Unwritten Tales 2, Undertale, etc.
At this point it's just another standard funding path for smaller games, and I'm okay with that.
