Talk:Hero (video game)/@comment-122.107.33.190-20130129142002/@comment-5598003-20130131183457

Well, sadly, I can't continue to sit at the computer trying to keep the bills paid from my wife's part time job. If Hero doesn't get funded in some way or another I'll have no choice but to stop working on videogames and go back to working in a machine shop. If I do that, I won't have enough time to make this game. And the best place to get funded is KS. Other crowd funding sites like IndeiGoGo and Gambitious just don't have the traffic, but that's not to say I won't give them a try if KS fails, but it will be less likely to succeed.

Before starting Hero, I tried another title, Origin. It failed on KS, but afterwards I sat and studied what was getting funded on KS and why, and applied what I learned to Hero. Honestly I think it has a very good shot. I've already thought about if it gets overfunded, and if it doesn't get funded at all. Sadly, though, if it doesn't get funded from any of the crowd source sites, I just see no way I can continue development on it. Good advice though, and I agree, but when you're between a rock and a hard place, not many backup plans to think up.
