SWERY's The Good Life is live on Kickstarter - Fully Funded! [Switch version & Content Stretch Goal]

Huh. Learn something new every day. From the States, so I've never heard of it.
Of course supported, I think it may make it this time with all the factors (and it's already made 10% of it's goal, which is good). It also looks a lot better than last time we saw it.
Backed for 5000yen to get the lossless OST. How lossless OSTs manage to get me (making me go for a higher tier) is such a mystery.

This campaign definitely feels like it paints a fuller picture of the game than the last time around.
Not great, not horrible. Here's some old data (since I'm not a writer/reviewer anymore so I haven't kept it up to date) on how the breakdown of when funds came in for more "expensive" kickstarters like this.
You really want to hit 35% minimum in the first 3 days, since more often then not the first 3 days will make up 30-40% of your total backings.
Hm.....backed, but I'm not sure that SWERY will be a big enough draw, especially with stuff like Mighty No. 9 'spoiling' the feel-good era of years past.
It's not like SWERY has a comparable pedigree to Obsidian, Larian, or Inexile to draw from, and the previous failure is gonna scare some people off :(
Ah well - here's hoping, regardless.

I'm pretty concerned they're asking for so much less money with no real explanation of how that's supposed to work exactly. The amount they're asking for also isn't anywhere near enough to produce the game that's being described. There really needs to be some explanation on how this is really being funded
Edit: my apologies, I should've been more careful. They say Kickstarter is 40% and 'partners' are 60%. Still seems like far too little money for the game they are promising here.

"Last Autumn, we learned a lot thanks to our first campaign. We feel our biggest shortcoming was our inability to provide to our supporters a solid guarantee that we would complete the game no matter what.
Therefore, we decided to reboot our project only after finding a powerful partner and getting proper guarantees in order to ensure that we would be able to deliver The Good Life to you all.
By teaming up with UNTIES, the new indie game label from Sony Music Entertainment, we will now be able to plan everything from the very beginning. The schedule up to the delivery of the product, localization, quality control, and making sure everyone around the world gets to join in.
We believe that this partnership guarantees that The Good Life project will reach completion."
Edit: Oh, I see your edit
Sounds a lot more promising than the first event.
I'll think about it... absolutely adore Deadly Premonition so this seems really enticing.

Before the Kickstarter went up from its draft SWERY said that it'll be Japanese subbed only for now, and >possibly< a dub in the country where the Kickstarter has the most backers.
However, those comments seemed to have disappeared, I'm guessing since it was considered 'feedback' to the draft they were removed.
When the campaign is over, so in May.
Backed for the PC, mauve more expensive stuff later. I'd love to go for the shirt, or more, but man my spending is tight, and there's the Chicken Wiggle, and I just saw and Abe's Odyssey art book too today....
Alright, the first campaign was terrible, but this time I'm in for a physical CE ! Hope this gains traction, that's a decent start but not good enough for my liking.
If I get to kill him by shoving a tree up his urethra, sure.
I want to back it but I'm completely broke at the moment. Once I can get some scraps together I'll definitely back it. Both Futatsugi and Swery deserve success.
Nothing like that here (which I'm okay with, as the game has some focus on characters I'd rather they be of Swery and his teams vision), but the closest would be for $1,906 USD, which is to put a statue of yourself in the game.
