Beyond the base funding goal
What a successful start to the Kickstarter for the Dragonbane adventure The Ghost of Brickpile Castle. The base funding goal has been cleared and now we are working towards new brave possibilities.
When I writing these words the Kickstarter has just passed SEK 13,000. That means that the campaign is only SEK 7,000 (about $700) from reaching the stretch goal for a Foundry VTT module. I’m very excited about this because every time I’ve done a Kickstarter there has always been requests for a VTT module. I have always been doubtful about this as I am very poorly versed in what this means and what it would cost. It also felt like this initiative required the right product, a test product so to speak. The Ghost of Brickpile Castle feels like the perfect candidate for a VTT module, as it is a short Adventure with several Battle maps.
We have six days to come up with the missing SEK 7,000. With the help of a simple mathematical formula I calculate that the Kickstarter needs about 466 backers in total. That shouldn't be a problem as our last Kickstarter had a total of 839 backers. I don't really like to talk about numbers but it is important to show that there is an economic side to Kickstarters, not only a creative side.
Anyhow, let’s find 150 more backers and then see what else we can do. This Kickstarter is far from over…
