At least it probably won't release and be a huge failure like Mighty No 9.

I guess developers don't put as much effort when they're not using their own money lol

I put like $20 or 30 into Project Phoenix years ago. After that turned out to be a complete scam ive vowed off Kickstarter entirely.

Disappointing. :( Oh well.

As long as Cyberpunk 2077 stays on track to give me my Cyberpunk fix, I'm not *too* bothered.

This would have been nice though. Maybe it'll come out one day...

I'm glad the only things I've backed on Kickstarter turned out pretty well.

I couldn't put an exact number on it but more flops and things not even being released than actual sucessful products.

I think I read somewhere that less than 25% of all projects are succesful.

That's the funding rate, including every garbage project posted by random 12-year-olds. Delivery rate is something like 91%.

Probably not, if you're going by the initial estimated delivery date.

I dunno about released on time, but a fair few are well liked.

Undertale
FTL
Shovel Knight
Super Hot

Just some off the top of my head. Theres the Muv Luv remaster which seems to be going well too

Delays aren't exactly something specific to Kickstarter. There's an internal planned release date, which is typically overshot by a year or two, and an announced release date which is only made public when the game is almost done. With a Kickstarter, the release date you're getting is what would normally be the internal one, not the announced one.
