Information You Will Believe a Golden Baby Can Fly: Grimoire on Indiegogo

250 000 might be a bit much for a relatively niche game. Will pledge though, and I hope this succeeds.

He doesn't need to make the entire 250,000.

He said in that other thread that if you pledge you get a copy of the game in May, even if the campaign doesn't succeed (because it's flexible funding).

Thats how you do a promo plegde vid Hope it gets funded.

"This time we're serious!"

Whoever doubted it? :D

"Kicked forward" some of the Underworld... Er... "profits". I heard it was the 'in' thing to do

After a moment of doubt I decided to make my sequel anyway. Le gant en est jeté, master Cleve! :D (Hey, you're the one with all the French references and phrases).

 

[Mother Russia]

Dang, I just wish it could have been on Kickstarter, for more exposure. Why didn't Cleve take my advice and try to talk it through to the K-Starter ppl?

Anyhow, Best Video Ever!!!

And anyway, whatever Cleve makes from this, and I bet it will be a princely sum as long as this gets global exposure, he can always make a new campaign once this one is over! Like the Hardcore Tactical Shooter guys.

Heck, who knows, Notch might pledge to this! Also, I bet plenty of Japanese will be interested, as they play these sorts of retro games on their DS and 3DS all the fuckin time.

That pitch video brought a tear to my eye

 

[Vaarna_Aarne]

Black Lich seems to have gotten sweet dance moves to along with immortality.

 

[Fryjar]

Jump to 18:22 to see him thank the Codex specifically!

"We owe a great debt to RPG Codex for giving us the encouragement and the motivation to resume the completion of Grimoire"

also

"For Codexia and great justice"

I'm gonna grab a extra freelance next weekend just to get enough jewgoldz for the 100$ tier. I'm willing to exchange some extra work hours for that hardcover "thick as a phone book" hint guide...

 

[ChristofferC]

This is how you pitch a game!

 

[CrustyBot]

Now that I've watched the video, it's a very interesting/bizarre/unique pitch.

I wonder if we'll be having a Codex fundraiser for Cleve.

:baby:

 

[agentorange]

At first I was like what is this shit. Then he said you could ride on turtles, so I pledged.

 

[FeelTheRads]

*pause*

"In Grimoire you can ride on turtles."

 

[Admiral jimbob]

That is the most masterfully insane thing I have ever seen.

I wonder if we'll be having a Codex fundraiser for Cleve.

LOL, I wouldn't mention that to DarkUnderlord.

 

[agentorange]

The Sewers of Decline, the monsters within which are especially susceptible to the Pop-A-Mole spell. Come on, only $1000.

 

[himmy]

This seems like the only thread important enough for me to actually have my first post.

 

[Ogg]

*pause*

"In Grimoire you can ride on turtles."

Time to bring back the old classic:

 

[Craig Stern]

Ha! That was one hell of a sales pitch. Me, I'd be too worried about setting unreasonable expectations to make a video like that. Then again, after 17 years of development, I'd probably be all out of shits to give.

Now, if you'll excuse me...

*hops on a turtle and rides off into the sunset*

 

[Berekän]

Awesome

 

[Surf Solar]

That is the most masterfully insane thing I have ever seen.

 

[Country_Gravy]

At first I thought this guy was talking and then I realized that was his real voice.

 

[Gragt]

I can hear the Asperger in his speech.

 

[Roguey]

I was expecting Cleve to sound loud and boisterous, I'm disappointed that he actually sounds like some emaciated nerd (even though he is/was quite fat). He misrepresented himself.
