If I want the PC game but do not want the physical game / expansion that comes with it, what option should I support?

$30 level is the only way to get the PC version without a lot of other add ons.

jomni

Yeah that's the thing. It includes some stuff to be shipped which I don't need (at additional cost).

Pretty amazing that in less than a day they have doubled what they needed at $108,000, which I am sure will grow.  They added more stretch goals and goodies that now even includes a ps4 version.  I wonder what will be next:)

So ambitious with that amount of money.  :uglystupid2:
100,000 to develop a multiplatform game. I guess GMT is providing additional seed money or they plan to work on the existing code of the unfinished game.

Indeed.

Gotta plan for the worst.

Well, they are well over $100k now and it's only day 2 of their campaign. Pretty impressive.  O0

I think though that I won't be backing the KS.... I only want the PC version of the game, well maybe a copy fer my iPad too, and I can't get just that with their current pricing scheme....
So I'll wait until it's released and get eh download only version from their store next spring.

I'm tempted to jump in on this one (again).  They are at $136K with still 27 days to go!

Yeah might as well wait for the full game.  The freebies aren't really that enticing for me.

They are now at $148,000...pretty good effort...they also introduced a digital level for $25....now is has me rethinking my decision to hold off:)

I am assuming not since the $30 specifically mentions beta access...but not 100% sure, just my guess.

Barthheart

Hmmm..... Fer $25 for the PC version and the digital goodies I might be back in as well....... :uglystupid2:

For an extra 5 dollah you can beta

bayonetbrant

yes, but is it really any beta than the $25 version?
