Onward and Upward!
We've just snuck past the halfway point of the Retronauts Kickstarter campaign, and while donations have slowed to a much less ludicrous frequency, we're currently approaching the $45,000 mark, with nearly 1000 backers showing their love for our little podcast. With less than two weeks to go, we think it's more than possible to make our $52,000 stretch goal and take our show on the road -- so we've made a few adjustments to existing tiers, and added a new one to entice lovers of physical goodies. (You know who you are.)
Check out our Kickstarter page, and you may notice that it's now much more affordable to commission a retrospective article or original video. That's right; getting a chunk of text devoted to the game of your choice is now just a mere $130, while a video project with the same focus now costs only $160 to sponsor. If you know of some strange, obscure, or off-the-wall game you'd like to see receive the Retronauts treatment, let us know with your generous donation.
We're also proud to announce a brand-new $140 tier brought to you by the great folks at Fangamer. Donators who invest their money in this extremely limited tier will get to chooseone of these amazing Fangamer prize packages, and -- like anyone who donates to a $100-and-higher tier -- they'll also take home the Retronauts button/sticker, DVD, and t-shirt at no additional cost. If you'd like to reap the most physical rewards, this is the tier for you. But you'll have to act fast.
As we've said, things have slowed down a bit since the initial burst of excitement, but we've still been working hard behind the scenes to ensure that all the pieces fall into place. Thanks again for your support, and please spread the word if you can!
