Guy Raises $1 Million in 1 Day on Kickstarter
 
Now, granted that guy was video game developer Tim Schaffer. But $1 million in funding in one day is a pretty amazing feat.

Every success story on there is pretty amazing.

And just think, 100% donations. They won't even let someone offer an ROI.

While everyone (Paul) is bitching that nobody will spend money they are giving it away to help others. :1orglaugh

I worked on a small indie feature this past summer. One of them raised about $25k in 4 days.

I've played all of those old adventure games mentioned, so I'm familiar with this guy's work.

Yeah...he's been around a while and has some critically acclaimed titles under his belt. Only problem he's had is that he last few games haven't sold like the Big Game Studios would like them too.

It's amazing how similar the Movie and Games businesses have become.

I got to come up with an idea to put on KickStarter. Seems like every project on there makes bank easily.

Definitely not the case. But give it a shot and see how it goes.

works best if you have a following and / or you or get some major media to report on your project.

actually i would say it has more to do with how good the video was

I know lots of people who had no idea who that guy was send me the video because it was funny.
