So I think it's safe to say this isn't going to come out in 2012 anymore. This has become a Real Game.
I've got the full run of the Order of the Stick books, and they're great fun. I also threw the Kickstarter a couple bucks for one of the rewards packages. Totally worth it.

Ohhhhh shit!
They still have $15 coming from me, so add that to the total.

Same here.
Bumped my donation up to $30. The documentary on this is now something I'm really looking forward to.

My original point was that 15$ was a bargain for the game. You and Firstpoop got caught up in me comparing it to a 60$ retail game as an illustration of cost savings.
Its going to have at least a 2mill budget. Maybe even 3 mill. 15$ is a good price for that. Maybe even a bargain assuming they will work extra hard on this with the attention that has been put on them for raising so much money so quick. There is going to be a lot or pressure to make the best game they can for 2 or 3 mill. And anyone can buy into that for at least 15
Well their other $15 games also cost $2-3 million. You could argue that's a bargain, but it's in line with what we've come to expect, at least.
Actually, to be fair, I guess you're right about it being a bargain if you compare it to all the other adventure games out there with similar or smaller budgets that come out for like $30. Brutal Legend and full priced retail games aren't going to make your point, but there are plenty of adventure games that might. Telltale games probably have like $2-3 million budgets and those cost $35.

I'll concede on the brutal legend comment. That was a poor choice on my part. I should have chosen something a little closer in that price range and gameplay.
