And those were dollars from a different era. Inflation and all that. Makes me wonder what they had in mind when they set the goal at 270K.  |
Considering they've only given themselves seven months to finish the game, I think in terms of length and scope, what they have in mind is probably more along the lines of Costume Quest or Stacking than Grim Fandango.

Totally agree, and frankly I feel bad for whoever tries it next without realizing this.
