Life is Feudal Official Forum

Not sure what the rules are on kickstarters, but have you guys ever thought of trying again now that more people know about LIF? I'm sure there are plenty here that would have jumped aboard then if we knew about it at the time. I know a few of my friends and I would have.

This game definately deserves it.

The first try was on indiegogo.

I wouldn't recommend it as of yet. There are so many faulty animations, a non working combat system, no horse riding. All things that would make a trailer video be infinitely more impressive if included or done right.

Once you can show off big battle scenes is the right time to try a crowd funding campaign.

Once we gonna have it all we will be in late betas and will be selling our game for some time.

It was discussed many times before. Reasons against Kickstarter:
1. Only US, UK, Canada, Australia (someone else maybe ) residents can start official campaigns on a Kickstarter. There is no official and clean way fo "some obscure russkes" to have a campaign there. We don't want to risk with some illegal proxy companies or some proxy US/UK/Canada residents. I've seen some of our colleagues using proxies, but it is officially prohibited by kickstarter rules, so we prefer to avoid it.

2. It takes a lot of efforts to properly prepare a campaign. We had wasted that time once and wasting it once more will take even more from developments itself.

3. It is aprox. 2 months left till Steam Early Alpha of LiF:YO. We can hold that long hopefully.

there are some more reasons also, but I'll avoid disclosing them.

As you can see, at current stage crowdfunding is not a good option for us.

Well, sure you would be later in development. But you wouldn't mind the extra money as well, I suppose?

Look at Kingdom Come: Deliverance. They had a trailer with all the things I mentioned working and their campaign went through the roof at the end.

And Kickstarter vs. Indiegogo: Indiegogo is fine. You can pay via PayPal and it's not restricted to the US.

I wouldn't put the option off the table completely.

They also had Chris Roberts from Cloud Imperium endorse them with a joint project effort.
