Maybe it's not that about the idea alone, maybe the presentation wasn't good enough to encourage ppl to pay

:
They said that the more money they get, the more platforms they'll port it to. So, given that they've almost hit 5x their goal, you may be in luck.
I would like to think so, but it's probably impossible. Microsoft doesn't let anything that isn't made using their indie game software on their service without a publisher, and for Microsoft to consider you a publisher you have to meet many requirements (one of which is having a significant amount of money on hand). Double Fine is self publishing this, and have so far been unable to convince Microsoft to consider them as a publisher. I know this because Microsoft removed Psychonauts from the XBox Originals store when publishing rights reverted back to Double Fine. Double Fine has been trying for almost a year to get it back on, and so far has been unsuccessful.

I agree in principal, but I still prefer playing games on the 360. At this point, it's probably just because that's where all my shit is.

Fair enough. I've got no interest in giving you a load of arguments you've heard before.

Full Throttle cost 2.2 when inflation is factored in, so yeah. It's expensive to make games.

I thought I should mention that I now know things about this game that the rest of you don't. Why is that? Because I'm a backer, bitches.

I know something you don't know.

It's not very interesting anyway. I just know how the money broke down. I also just wanted to post something to alleviate boredom.

I don't play many adventure games, and the only Double Fine game I've particularly enjoyed is Psychonauts. You just have fun supporting a company that you like.

Well, I guess it's not something to be made light of. You're part of a very exclusive club, after all, of just 87,142 people. I'm sure your $101 made all the difference in their $3,336,371 total.

Annoying MeechMunchie is truly a thing to be feared. Also, I've/we've been screwing up a lot of topics recently. I think I'd better be quiet.

As OANST's comment didn't specifically warrant that response, I predict a 3/4 probability that this is a recently escalated relationship which Nate is keen to boast about.
