I researched hundreds of Kickstarter campaigns since 2021 to find the most successful, tracking how much money they earned, how many backers they had, their country of origin, and whether or not they’ve since released. What I found might surprise you! Or it might not! Or maybe you’ll be mildly interested!

    Haven’t watched the vid yet, but my opinion on Kickstarter is that funding anything other than things like board games isn’t worth the risk. With simple physical objects they’re done and just need money to begin mass production.

      No shit four years ago I funded a game. They got funding and was supposed to get game 3 years ago. Still nothing. Hell haven’t had update since the summer. Want my money back. Not even interested in the game anymore. Fuck every doing kickstarter again.
