Was anybody wondering about how it would be for Peter Molyneaux to do a KS pitch? Here he is: Project GODUS - http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/22cans/project-godus - "GODUS is a delightful reinvention of the god game from 22cans and Peter Molyneux, who created the genre." - funding goal: £450,000 ($720,000)

This is going to generate some MAJESTIC bitching, butthurt and fanboy circlejerking.

Discuss!

Where are the other 18 cans? False advertising.

Yeah I'm really sure he needs money. $30 game tier? I'll get it for $10 on sale.

No, he made some good ones (or at least was part of a team that made some good ones) twenty years ago.

"Gift a pledge!"
That's more brilliant than the game idea. I expect more Kickstarters will use that in the future.

Molyneux has kind of become this anti-gaming figure for me. I would never pledge.
This game isn't about bringing back the good old days. This game is for iApple man-children to have as a time-waster on the bus.

Well, that was awfully humble for a project led by Molyneux.

You mean 15 dollar. (if you are an early donator)

No, it's 15 pounds sterling but I got the exchange rate wrong so it's more like $24ish not $30ish. The non early buyer tier is $48ish which is even more laughable.

I'm sure we all knew a Molyneux Kickstarter cash-grab was coming, the only question was "when?". Now the question becomes "are people retarded enough to back this?".
My personal guess is that this will get fully funded within the week. :decline:
