This really is a race to the finish. I'm not backing this game, but I really hope it pulls through.

SWERY's The Good Life is live on Kickstarter - Fully Funded! [Switch version & Content Stretch Goal]
- Thread starter CannonFodder52
- Start date
That's gone up nearly 10% since I last checked, that's positive! I'll be increasing my pledge in the next day or so, which mean an Early PC Backer option will become available. Hopefully that'll be enough for someone to decide to back the game also.
Sweet! Guess ill back it soon assuming i get my new cc this week @_@
Only less than a week to go.
I'd have try the demo but I have no plugged in controllers... Only watched footages of it. Some Youtuber covered the demo, hopefully that's enough to boost the signal.

Placeholder dialogue and the developers having a bit of fun. Remember that the prototype wasn't meant to be public originally.
Can confirm the keyboard mapping works.
I love the atmosphere and the style of this game. If it's not funded I'd be so gutted.
Naomi is the hilarious type of bitchy. I love her.
I know it's a prototype, but I still went out to find glitches. Here are two:
If you walk into the walls at these two areas while turning the camera, you can sometimes see through the buildings. For examples:
Results:
Second "glitch," I put the sheep down under John and he steps on it.

Is this a challenge?
I tried to stack a mug too but it all fell apart.
You can try use them as stairs to get out of bounds or into houses. You can explore to your hearts content until you fall off the edge of the map.Is this a challenge?

Did this because I got stuck on Williams mission for ages -- thought the couple would be hiding in a house somewhere. :[

It's not done yet. It notably went up by $70,000 yesterday alone, and it still has 4 days left to make the last $153,000. It's gonna be real close whether it makes it or not, though.
You win, hah!!
This looks hopeful.Yeah, it really picked up in the last few days!
They need to advertise the hell out of it in the last few days. And us too.
I've never done a KS before, this is kinda exciting.
Crossing my fingers that this gets funded. Might up my pledge to the PS4 collector's edition...
I know and missed that boost but still going to need a little miracle. If they get really close I'd expect them to drop some money themselves, probably gonna need a third party to avoid fraud but still? I understand the all or nothing KS rule but it would be silly if you're 5K short to not make it happen.
I wonder if they'll ever talk about that Switch version again if it gets funded. And I don't know how much we should held them accountable for it either. They did use it to garner attention and made the link between it and the campaign succeeding...
Maybe some youtubers are playing the prototype and getting their followers to pledge? Here's hoping some major gaming celeb covers the prototype on the last day.

No idea what caused that.
Maybe, Golden Week holiday in Japan? Or is he far more popular in the west?
Either way, thats great for them.

Isn't that a pretty typical curve for crowdfunding, you tend to get bigger days at the end again.
I think Kickstarter sends out reminders 48 before the campaign ends to anyone who signed up for one, that should help.
Also I guess IGA's Bloodstained KS gave them a shoutout in their Apr 28 update, maybe some people found it from there.

Yeah true.
I had thought we were still 5 days out. I see its closer than that now.
Yeah the end is furious but this is happening 3+ days out. Dunno!
About 100+ more backers for the last two hours or so. I guess the promotional demo is doing its work.
They obviously cleared it with that guy, so I'm sure he's fine.
Hopefully.
Did he look to you like anything was cleared lol. Hopefully they cleared it before Shawn was harmed. Find out what happened next on the next podcast!

It was at 50% at around 14 days left if I remember correctly. The kickstarter has had an amazing turn around.
Massive credit to Team White Owls. They got the demo out in short order. Got a picture of the game running on Switch. Swety has been hyping the fund like a madman. He showed up in a few streams when people were playing the demo. He has been sharing Youtube videos people made of it. I wouldn't be surprised if he called in help from some of his friends, like the Bloodstained shoutout or the ASW one.
What a nailbiter. I honestly thought it was dead but it looks like Swery might make it just in the nick of time. Incredible display from everyone involved.
