I say to go ahead and do this.

Thanks for the kind words of encouragement! Its, just that if i try, and i fail, i'll be more bankrupt than i am now. :(
Can't ask people if they'll support it. They'll always say no. Just gotta do it and make em support it.
I don't really feel like "making em" support the game is the right thing to do. Anyone can make a game that manipulates people into giving them money, but to me thats not what making games is all about.
Thats why i'm testing the waters, and seeing if people are interested enough that i can start a kickstart campaign.
I gladly supported both Reincarnation: The Root of All Evil and Detective Grimoire with $50, mainly because they had begun as free games and I really wanted to see them become big hits. I'd definitely try to back your project if you go through with it.
The world spawns all kind of people.
Some people will fund it without any kind of a proof or reasurance and some (me) will require a preview of sorts.
Defiantly, Its as i said. I'm not asking for people to support a campaign, because, i haven't even planned one out. I'm just considering it at the moment, and wondered how strongly people would like to start seeing bits and pieces from the game.
I'm inclined to agree with Deshiel.
I wish you every luck, but the short answer is no. If you want me to be brutally honest, I don't think your games are frankly 'different' or, for want of a better word 'interesting' enough to work well enough to be a popular indie title.
Now, offer people genuinely detailed INVESTMENT opportunities rather than BEGGING the public, then I might take you more seriously.
See, the thing is, I haven't asked anyone for any money. I haven't begged anyone for any money. I wish people reading this wouldn't jump tot hose conclusions.
For starters, you haven't even seen the game! Why would you invest in something you haven't seen?
All i was saying, was, that i'm interested in making this a bigger project, and if i do make it a bigger project, we will need some sort of financial support.

Sounds rather interesting! I love those cut-scene pictures. Good luck!
