My first project was Kingdom Come: Deliverance, looks like it might be a very good indie AAA game (I think their Kickstarter made over $1 million + they have extra private backers). Should be out early 2016.

After that I got hyped and backed a few more games, none of them out yet. And some for Vita, which I got rid of... So it made me reconsider paying for games that far in advance, and I don't do it anymore...

Especially after backing a camoaign for some apparel that was due out in June, but hasn't shipped as of today...

So, if anybody asks me niw, I tell them not to do it, it's usually a waste of money (or at least a waste of $0.13 in bank interest)...
