I think I’ve backed 4 Kickstarter games. 3 made it to release. I’m not surprised that a lot fail. The one that didn’t make it to release got removed from Kickstarter for not making its goal and being a “sequel” I believe. That game looks like it’s still getting made. It happens. Studios make mistakes or don’t get the timing right or what have you.
It’s important to remember that this is an investment. Investments have inherent risk. It’s not going to stop me from investing in new games or projects I’m interested in. But I recommend not investing anything you can’t bear to lose.
