New Game + Prepping Sumthin' + Superbowl Joke

I just released a new beatemup style game on NG!

Drop me a 5 plx! :-D

Leave a review and tell me what you think. I made it a while ago to help some friends with the launch of their Steam game, and their sponsor (Adult Swim) just released the lock down on it so I could upload it here.

In other news, I decided to do a Kickstarter campaign for Super Chibi Knight! It's kind of scary, but I'm trying to be somewhat smart about it. Aiming for a small reasonable goal ($6,000), but have lots of stretch goals to shoot for beyond the base amount. I'm still working on it, but keep an eye out in the next week or so for the big KS launch.

My buddy from Flexicade is going to CNC-mill me some custom keychains as reward tiers, and I'm getting some help from talented artists like Jouste and Jeff to draw up some posters and t-shirts. There will also be some cool surprises thrown in at the higher tiers, like becoming an NPC in the game!

I've been struggling to find work lately... Basically I've been scraping by doing freelance stuff, but that's taking up all my time so I can't work on Super Chibi Knight (which is about 1/2 way done). I want to finish it and this KS campaign will give me the funds (I hope) so I can focus full-time for 2 months on finishing it. I really want to see this game get done and released on Steam, but I'll need lots of help once I get the KS campaign up an running.

So, be honest with me, do you think you'll toss a few bucks my way to help finance the final development stages of Super Chibi Knight?

Super Bowl Joke: I heard Peyton Manning tried to shoot himself after losing the Super Bowl... but somebody intercepted the bullet!

Here are a couple images I'm using in the KS campaign:

I just got paid by ng so I'll go on a kickstarter spree or buy all the steam games.

Cool! You can get in on the SCK pre-order tier (or higher) and get the game when it's done.

I'll help finance Chibi Knight!

And funny how nowadays when someone says "toss a 5 my way" I think they mean their Patreon or something.

Hooray!

I'd never heard of Patreon until now, seems like a pretty cool idea:

Aaaand, now I have a "Patreon" account :-P

I think you just lied to me. I went to Kickstarter and Chibi Knight is not on there. I don't think just using Steam Greenlight is considered Kickstarting..
And I was gonna give you a bunch of money too :(

BUT I am not liking how I haven't seen any over world map yet in your videos. Is there an over world map or did you kill it? I felt like it was a pretty important part of the game.

PS: I just read your post and feel dumb for this post I'm about to leave. Oh well. Posty post. Hurry up and start your kickstarter so I can back it. AND THERE BETTER BE OVERWORLDS :< !

Ha ha, yes, this is a PRE-Kickstarter warmup post, just getting your mouth watering.

Yes, there is an overworld map (and it's huge!), you need to sign up for the alpha test on www.superchibiknight.com!

This is all very sad, how money drives our lives.

BoMToons 2014-02-04 15:35:15

I'm dying inside at the thought...

"I'd buy that for a dollar!"

BoMToons 2014-02-10 16:33:29

How about 7 dollars?
