the potential for so many memes here
"this is how the oton works; background... created, character... created, physics.... added, boss... created, game complete"
"game on a wall, game on a car, game on a door, you can literally game anywhere"
EDIT:
all joking aside,
they are saying they need 3/4 million dollars to make the console
they had backing levels that included the console
they chose a flexible funding campaign (they get all the money raised)
I know $1000 is just a sneeze when it comes to scams, but what if they raised like $50,000 or something, something way shy of what it would cost to actually make, but still really high when it came to scams. They obviously couldn't deliver on that kind of promise with that kind of money.... and knowing the horrifically low success of the last "crowd sourcing" campain.... did they go into this with the intention of scamming people?
