good lord man, get some rest!

Where do you share your IndieGoGo? I've been running one for my game, but it's been largely ignored as I'm not very social media savvy.

Congrats on all the support you gotten so far!

You know, funny thing is I wasn't the one to expose this campaign…. Everyone is talking about it…. Just google "Touhou Smash" it goes ON FOR PAGES!!!

Lots of critique it looks like, but also a lot of attention. Bravo!

I think its come a ways from the other videos, looks like it has a lot more promise.

Keep in mind though if its another flappybird-like project you may have to take it down from public distro's or change the name, but don't let that stop you cause it looks like you'll have enough interest in it and the funding seems to be going well

I dunno, ZUN seems pretty okay with people making money off of fangames. Can't imagine you'll run into copyright issues with Nintendo either, considering you're using the gameplay concept and not their characters. Regardless, have you investigated copyright issues at all? Because I'm not sure if crowdfunding on copyrighted material will warrant the same legal issues as actually making a profit, but the possibility is there and you should be prepared for it.

Yes I have done lots of research, I've thought this ALL THE WAY through. I have a plan.

Someone actually paid $2,100? Wow… and you have already reached over 86% of your goal. That's something amazing.

Congratulations man good luck with it (I wish I knew what touhou is)

I'd probably play even though I don't know what touhou is. Congrats!

Also this kind of game actually falls under the category I was talking about in one of my recent blogs about the n64/gc -esc style that I'd like to see more of.
