KICKSTARTER DURING THE GREAT DEPRESSION Very Tiny Coffin for My Firstborn Son by Wiktor Brodowski Backers New York, NY Death Boxes Comments I am in need of a coffin for my firstborn son, who has perished due to influenza. Launched Sep 7, 1933 O Funding ends Sep 17, 1933 ackers $0 plodged of $4 goal 10 In 1923, I come to this country with only three dollars to aiys to g my unusual name. Now, after many years of hard work, I have no dollars. My wife has a dollar, but she is saving it for a "rainy day." I say, "Matoshka, has the rain not arrived? My genitals are shielded only by newsprint; my stomach routinely says 'still more rat carcass, Wiktor? If only I was a millionaire, I would buy an umbrella--to protect myself from all of this rain!" But merely she says 'no, Wiktor,' and resumes hitting her head on our modest dining-plank. (She is insane, you understand.) Back This Project st This project will only be funded if at least S4 is pledged by Sunday Sep 17, 1933 10:15pm EDT Yet not even ten whole dollars could make our lya cease to be dead. Wiktor Brodowski lya was a delightful child. Were it not for the large yellow lesions, and the so few fingers, you might think who is this handsome child actor from the American 2 created 3 backed Ej %, .. 110 trends pictures, and for what reason is he residing with Wiktor, Webuldes noted tomato swindler?' Many times, tossing the old ball-of-garbage with llya, I contemplated the same question. Some other questions I contemplated include: "Why all the time llya is shaking as if in icebox, when it is such a beautiful warm day?" and why is llya pulling this precocious prank, where he pretends he is unable any longer to use legs? See ful bio I have made the arrangements with Georgi the Coffin Maker, the brother of my wife. He demands $4, despite o backers Limited (1 of 1 left) llya's body not requiring very much wood. (If you have am now the owner of an ever witnessed a small diseased dog making a meal of expertly filched tomato-you, a smaller, even more diseased dog, llya is much like the smaller dog, in his appearance.) I say 'Georgi amEstimated delivery: Jan 1933 family! Perhaps a bargain is in the cards, here?' But Georgi has long been blind, and cannot be sure I am ledge $2 or more family, as opposed to malicious trickster lookingforfree O backers Limited (1 of 1 left) tiny coffin Pledge $1 or more after contributing this amount. It is a great honor, that you would contribute 25% of And so I am forced to beg. I am aware how disgusting it your is, to request funds in this manner. So many are without cloths, and shelter, and consumptions, and here I come to you-a strangerl-hoping my silly fancies to be fulfilled. You think, first you are demanding I pay for your first and only son's burial device-what, nexPledge S4 or more should provide you with medicine for your weakening-bones disease?" tiny death-house. If you own a dish, I will wash it nightly Estimated delivery: Jan 1934 0 backers Limited (1 of 1 left) But can perceive of no other option. Georgi is steadfast in his demands, and remains blind. Matoshka is believing at the moment that she is a bird, and is only useful for frenzied arm-flapping. Ilya is beginning to smell worse than he did while alive; I am ashamed to say it, but I do not know for how much longer I car share a bed with him. Probably you are some sort of king, if you can freely dispense with a sum such as this. So allow me to inquire: Is your court in need of a jester? Many years ago I was a not-shabby onion juggler and to onion-juggle for a royal personage s yourself? And have my tiny son buried in a box of suitable size? This, to a measly tomato filcher, would be as beneficial as being rid of my rapid limb Thank you for your time -Wiktor Estimated delivery: Jan 1934

Why you should not donate to Double Fine's Psychonauts 2 crowdfunding campaign The guy comes out and says I'm a prick," Kotick told the latest issue of Edge magazine "T've never met him in my life I've never had anything to do with him. I never had any involvement in the Vivendi project that they were doing, Brütal Legend, other than I was in one meeting where the guys looked at it and said, 'He's late, he's missed every milestone, he's overspent the budget and it doesn't seem like a good game. We're going to cancel it' And do you know what? That seemed like a sensible thing to do. And it turns out, he was late, he missed every milestone, the game was not a particularly good game..." Kotick also insisted his infamous "taking the fun out of videogame development" quote was just a quip. "That was a joke! The fact that there are people -and it's a small vocal minority-that actually think that I meant it... How do you combat that?" He added: "This is my dream job. I've been playing games since I was 18 years old. I could have bought any company, but I bought a bankrupt game company, and I've been doing it for 21 years. This idea that I'm not passionate about videogames is ludicrous. But you say something and it gets taken out of context." Bobby Kotick, On Tim Schafer calling him a prick and "Brütal Legend" https://archive.is/nal1m Mismanagement of Broken Age Kickstarter funds And now, despite the $a.3 million the game raised on Kickstarter (and the additional $1,2 million Double Fine raised for its second Kickstarter game, Massive Chalice) Broken Age is out of money. Turns out, even games not developed the traditional publishing route over- budget and over-promise. "Even though we received much more money from our Kickstarter than we, or anybody anticipated, that didn't stop me from getting excited and designing a game so big that it would need even more money," Schafer writes in a letter to backers posted at Gamasutra https://archive.is/FoI8x de Moonbeef Failed to deliver on promised features for Spacebase DF-9 So Double Fine will end Spacebase DF-9 development and leave it barebones http://steamcommunity.com/games/2460...94030200824180 They even made a timeline to show how "far" they have come since first EA release They removed this development plan page few months ago so they were even planning to abandon it for some time http://web archive.org/web/201310180. .9.com/devplans Most of those features are missing What the f------ what? I actually bought this game because had good faith in it. Developer like DF should've been a safe bet, right?
