    LOL, that's preposterous! It was hookers & blow!

    Actually there may be another campaign coming up for two reasons, 1) we had a $10,000 backer's pledge fail after the campaign which crippled us a bit (although PayPal backers have definitely helped out a lot!) and 2) we're still eyeballing our stretch goals of multi-language support and Unity development for multi-platform support. The good news there is, we've already secured Linux even without Unity. But we also have a programmer currently working up a pre-alpha with Unity in case we can raise enough to hire him on.

    If you want to check out the development, I've been averaging a video-a-day or more on the YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/WarbirdGames

    Here's the latest one, delving into the AGS engine a bit:



    There's also a few on miniature terrain creation, space ship model kit bashing, and creating sculpture armatures.

    Thanks guys,
    -Stacy D.

    :lol:

    Oh boy.

    Well, it takes failed pledges off the total and they are still 10k over so :roll:

    I expected some of these developers would end up coming back to the well when they didn't manage to make the game, but ffs it's only been one year. Sorry bros but you'll have to put some of your own time, unpaid, into the game.

    Actually, you're mistaken. The total reflects only what was pledged and not what actually cleared.
