Kickstarter Indiegogo and other crowdfunding ....now the reputations of the developers making the games will mean everything

Kickstarter has been going on for a long time and we have had a lot of developers using it and past few years seeing the fruits of there work and those games will really help sell there next crowd funding idea.

Recently we had on Kickstarter Shadowrun: Hong kong and it met its goals very quickly. Probably due to the good reception for there previous shadow run game.

But then we have the opposite end for human resources mentioned in a previous blog but there dealing with that game in my eyes has put a real dent in future crowd funding and they really need to make good on there previous game .

I can say if you come up with the goods the next time you want to make a game chances are you will fund it. The makers of shovel knight if they do another game i am willing to bet the funding will be a lot higher due to universal praise for the game.

Now though you have youtubers and websites like http://cliqist.com/ that can point out any potential issues or pitfalls so while it is not risk free it does allow you to get more information about projects and what they have done before
