Breaking the Self Promotion Rules

[G.Silver]

It's time to break everything!

Some of you know I've been working on a new version of Tiny Barbarian, and that I've been threatening to ask for your money on Kickstarter for the past couple months. That time is finally here!

Here's a youtube clip!

If you missed it last time I mentioned it, Tiny Barbarian was a little game I made in Game Maker a while back, and I've been thinking ever since about more stuff to do with the little guy, so I started a new game in the Astroman engine and it's got a lot more stuff in it, like riding around on snarly cats, hitting gnomes until gold comes out, more juggleable enemies, etc. I heard some of you have jobs, so if you'd like to chip in a bit to support it, I'd really appreciate it!

Looks great! Really enjoyed the first one, I'll be sure to send some cash your way.

[Esrever]

Backed and tweeted about!

[G.Silver]

Yesss and thank you! Dare I say things are off to a good start?

[Segaholic2]

Good luck! I gave you some theoretical money.

I loved astroman. You got to get this to xbox live. This game looks great.

[Locit]

Good luck! I gave you some theoretical money.

your game is featured on kotaku:

That's pretty cool.

[G.Silver]

Yeah, I'm kinda jazzed! Hopefully it'll contribute a pretty good spike!

I check twitter for Tiny Barbarian posts pretty frequently and Kotaku is kind of funny because it gets picked up and retweeted by all these other news sites, but I wonder how many of them are real ones that people actually look at and not just news-regurgitating scripts. They don't add any of their own content, it's kind of weird.

[G.Silver]

It's at 94%! It's so cloooooooose! If you happen to frequent any other forums that are, ah, more active, now would be a great time to mention it there!

Also I got on Tiny Cartridge. They told me they were planning on mentioning the game "any time now" before I sent them the gif.

Hokay, sent you a bit of money also. Best of luck on the last stretch!

[G.Silver]

Thanks! We made it! :D

[Locit]

Do a Mac port you bastard.

[G.Silver]

Just for you!

[Protodude]

Glad to see you made your goal! I donated pretty early, and I can't wait to play the game when it's finished.

[Locit]

Seriously, this is awesome and I didn't even have to pony up more money for a Mac version.

Best of all possible worlds.

[G.Silver]

I'm pretty jazzed, you can imagine. :D

Congrats again, mate. Glad we could help in a small way. Looking forward to playing your game!
