If anyone remembers me I haven't been on in a while because I moved countries
But I'm sure most of you have heard of Kickstarter, a great site where people can post projects that they want funding for, and if you so want you can pledge money towards it, receive rewards and in doing so help people begin marketing a product without the use of a publisher or investor who could easily turn down their project.
With this in mind I, for no reason in particular, want to turn your attention to the game, Pixel Sand, you may not like it, but I do, and with just a small donation you can help them achieve their goal of $9000 to fully produce their game (♥♥♥♥ yeah for sounding like a charity). Even just spreading the word elsewhere will help though.
Even if this game doesn't seem to be your thing, browse the site, look at other projects, indie game developers, movie makers, designers. There are hundreds of amazing projects on Kickstarter, and by donating not only will you be helping make the project, but you may also be receiving the final product. For example a donation of only $3 will give you a full copy of the Pixel Sand game.
Another notable Kickstarter to check out is Osombie, a movie about a zombie Osama. Kickstarter also helped Double Fine (makers of Brutal Legend, and some good games) raise over $400,000 in less than 24 hours to help them make a game without the need of game publishers, now I find that quite amazing.
But in the end I do hope that some of you donate just that $3 towards Pixel Sand, or really any indie developer on Kickstarter that you think could use some help in funding their development.
Thanks, WalkableBuffalo
