Laying it a bit thick there isn't he? He worked on those projects, but he shouldn't be claiming main responsibility for them.

Re: Blackmore: A Steampunk Adventure Game - Kickstarter
Cool to see news have been spreading already. I'd expect every forum member to splurge this project with loads of cash!
Let's make this happen!! - This is the most exciting thing since Policenauts' translation patch!

I'm so glad to be here among fellow Snatcher fans. I hope you can all consider supporting what I am trying to do. As for the "laying it on a bit thick" please understand that I have never made the claim to have done anything other than what I did. That is not my direct quote.
The important thing though is that I am working to create a game that Snatcher fans will love and I really need your support. If the desire is not there from you guys, I don't know where it would come from. Please give me your support.

Glad to have you here, sir! I think what you're doing is great, and I can't wait to see the finished product. You certainly have my support, and I'm sure everyone else, too!

Indeed, the Kickstarter seems so tailored on this community, that the first time I heard of it I thought it was a project born on these pages!!JeremyBlaustein wrote:If the desire is not there from you guys, I don't know where it would come from. Please give me your support.
Glad to have you on board, Jeremy!
Now what else can we hope for... Wait, maybe I know... Ending theme composed by Muranaka / sung by Harrell?

As much as I'd love to contribute I'm not in the best financial shape at the minute . Wish you the best of luck with it.

Of course, with a hardcore team like this, it's gonna be a great Snatcher descendant.
BTW, who's voiced by Jeff Lupetin?

Re: Blackmore: A Steampunk Adventure Game - Kickstarter
Guys, despite the new mockup photos and the announcement that Donna Burke is on board too, the efforts are flagging. I hope everyone will convince at least one friend to back this awesome project. The world is in dire need of snatcher-esque adventure games!

Re: Blackmore: A Steampunk Adventure Game - Kickstarter
Let's face it; it's not going to make its goal at this rate. Any back up plans for this project, Jeremy? Would be a shame to see it die.

Re: Blackmore: A Steampunk Adventure Game - Kickstarter
As much as I hate to admit it, I agree with the above. There's just not enough people for this genre of gameplay. If it doesn't make it's goal, I really would hate to see it go....

Re: Blackmore: A Steampunk Adventure Game - Kickstarter
I don't think this exactly true. There is a market for this type of game and I believe the success of games like Phoenix Write and 999/Virtue's Last Reward proves this. Why this game isn't getting funded is most likely in the kickstarter campaign itself.hikage wrote:There's just not enough people for this genre of gameplay.
Honestly, there really isn't much on the table right now that makes me excited about the game. I personally find it hard to visualize how the game will turn out, considering Jeremy Blaustein has never directed a game, only worked with localizations. This isn't a kickstarter like Broken Age or Mighty Number 9, were just the name of the director was capable of giving the backer a clear idea on how the project will turn out. Since you don't have a major director under Blackmore, the only thing left to sell the project is a small plot summary, a few concept pictures and two screen shots that are very much work in progress. The end result is wary potential backers and people that are on the fence.
(NOTE: I'm not trying to bash the project. I'm just saying it's doing a bad job at selling it to me.)

Re: Blackmore: A Steampunk Adventure Game - Kickstarter
The lack of (I guess) advertisement also hits it. Personally, I'd love to back up at least 20-30$, but after the rouble crash - nope.
