Kickstarter - The Thread.

[MrHat]

Man, I just realized that Peachy Printer made their goal and took my money.

I had meant to cancel that pledge.  Anyway to get a refund on Kickstarted money? Or once it's processed, it's processed?

Touch Board - Interactivity Anywhere

This is being made by some friends of friends, so I've been getting a ton of chat about it on Facebook and such. It's a pretty fun idea, I'm not sure how many people here would find this useful, but I figured y'all might find it interesting. The video explains what it does better than I could say, but basically think of proximity-sensing paint tied to a sound generation machine.

Chargeback.

Edit: Or just email them. It doesn't... look like a scam?

[Engels]

This CastAR looks promising

[Stormwaltz]

I am drunk, and find this project's video terribly amusing.

If you don't think it's a scam and you just want your money back because, you know, lunch or whatever, keep in mind that a charge back will cost them money.  Usually like $30 or something.

Caring about the person on the other end of a chargeback is the wrong way to do a chargeback.

This is true.

[Pezzle]

Mandate has more gameplay than Star Citizen!

Shhhh, the lemmings might hear you.  Now go buy some more limited edition Anniversary sale stuff from a game that's not even in beta yet - https://robertsspaceindustries.com/comm-link/transmission/13377-Anniversary-Sale-Details

Looked at one ship, $80.  Seems like a good investment.

[Paelos]

Holy shit, that game is trying to sell you life insurance. 

[Furiously]

There are no submarine simulations on kickstarter... I'm just saying mention red storm rising and attack sub and roll in money...

[Ingmar]

If I started a Red Storm Rising Kickstarter I'd just lose control and fund it all myself anyway.

That's why it would be the perfect scam one!

Someone I work with's spouse's game:  http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/205899120/dwarven-delve-an-action-dungeon-crawl-with-a-twist?ref=live

Interesting concept.

[jgsugden]

For those Wargamers and RPG folks out there, this one is turning into a pretty good deal for a lot of vinyl mappage:

Only a couple hours left.

So, this is a thing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=72RqpItxd8M

Thooooor!

I've always hated green screen movies.

Until now.

[HaemishM]

If that gets made, it may be the greatest thing ever created in the history of man.

[Ginaz]

Is that Techno Viking?

Also, its already more than doubled its goal.

[Fabricated]

Argh, I am conflicted.

Yasumi Matsuno, the guy behind FFT, Vagrant Story, and FF XII is kickstarting a "spiritual successor" to FFT. They also want to get the original composer of FFT as a stretch goal.

The catch is that the company he's doing this with are THESE fucking guys:

http://www.playdekgames.com/game_catalog.php

An iOS game company that shits out card games. Blerghgg.

[Paelos]

I'm going to add spiritual successor to my list of words I never want to hear developers say again.

Along with meaningful.

[schild]

Uhm, Fabricated - Playdek is pretty awesome. They make some of the highest quality games on the iPad.

Apparently not a high bar to clear:

[schild]

That's the best implementation of Dominion in a digital capacity to date. Their Ascension app is perfect. Lords of Waterdeep is superb.

[Fabricated]

Is it as good as Hex?  

[schild]

That was a weak trolly effort, especially for you.

[Fabricated]

So is that actually an endorsement of the company then? I'm legit interested in this.

[schild]

Yes, every product Playdek has put out, even the games I haven't liked, have been nearly perfect for the iPad.

This actually looks pretty good, although the KS tiers kind of suck. Who gives a shit about wallpapers and soundtracks? Might drop $20 on it just so I don't forget about it.

Broken Age (Vol I) and Banner Saga both hit Steam today.

[Sky]

Banner Saga looks really good, and I'm in full Viking mode right now. The combat gives me a Gladius vibe, that game should've gotten more love, imo. One of the best original xbox games.
