Fun fact with the last one, it's not just the rulebook and logo that were plagiarised. By the end of the campaign people were finding the original 3d assets they'd ripped off for the renders of some of the minis too (one of the characters was a person's CG fanart of the protagonist of Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, for example) That said, I'm amazed we didn't get the Robotech campaign in this list.

@Alison Zable A quick google says that it was a wildly successful campaign that wasn't able to fulfill due to some combination of mismanaged finances and the original license holders not allowing Palladium to renew, and thus make it impossible to create additional product.

Legal actions has been taken in the past by individuals, but this month an association has been founded by backers to sue as a collective.

The last bit I heard, Dionisio (the creator of the kickstarter) left the place where they were creating the game (which was a rent), devastated. They took (steal) everything, even electrical panels, and they owe 60.000 euros for rent/damages.

Most of my tabletop game experiences with Kickstarter have been pretty pleasant. Exploding Kittens, Adorable Pandaring, Secret Hitler, not to mention the upcoming Binding of Issac and Trogdor games (though maybe I should knock on wood for that) but only two games really stood out to me as bad...the first is Big Angry Monsters, a Kickstarter campaign I was so interested in...I backed it twice...and it failed...twice. It's weird though 'cause it seemed like he was doing stuff right, it just didn't get any traction. The second if Thug Life, which had two campaigns. The first asked for a whopping $75,000. Naturally it failed, only raising about $11,000, but they did do a second one where they really revamped the game in a way that looks to be for the best, only asking for $5,000 and raised well over $13,000. Apparently that one is still going pretty smoothly, with an update as recent as two weeks ago that things are moving forward to...I guess that one isn't a failure, just sort of a neat story. Good luck on your eventual game, Slopes. I actually started making a campaign for a tabletop game once, but I never finished my alpha build of the game and didn't want to launch the project without some cool art or prototypes to show for it.

Take a look at "Darkness Sabotage" from Dethrone Games. It is another one that looks like it would fit in on this list. A really well put together campaign that has some great visuals and videos, even some great looking prototypes. There was some weird stuff at the start with the pricing, but the creator changed a few things and the campaign ended up being pretty massive at over $250,000. At first there were regular updates and the creator seemed to really be invested in making things great, but as time went by, the updates became less regular. Months would go by with nothing, then he would pop in, apologize for the delay and get back into posting nice looking updates. After nearly a year of this, the backers found out that the game had barely even begun production and many things were still in the design phase, leading him to admit that things had been delayed for probably at least another year. Over the course of the following year, updates again became sporadic and finally, there has yet to be a single post or even login from the creator in over 3 months. Numerous backers have tried to contact him and many have filed disputes with their credit card companies and government agencies to try and get their money back. Sucks too because it really looked like a cool game. I have around $400 invested in it myself that I will likely never see, sadly.

That whole Valley Games thing really doesn’t make sense to me... if they owed Phil approx.$255,000, asked for only $30,000 on Kickstarter, but got just shy of $340,000 then shouldn’t they have been able to do SOMETHING with the project? I know there are legal fees and there was the other guy that took them to court but they should have been able to pay Phil back... they should have tried to do installments but even if he refused and they had to do it all at once they still should have had enough to do something with the games the received funds for on Kickstarter so their backers received what they paid for, then with the proceeds they received from sale from all the games they had on the market they would have been able to settle up with the other guy as well. Even if they found out they needed more than $30,000 they had over $300,000 more than that so there is NO reason why they shouldn’t have been able to make everything work. I can’t figure out how they screwed up so bad. It sounds like flat out terrible management or the intention to take the money and run from the get go... or (and I do realize they pretty much go hand in hand) both. It’s disgusting. I don’t understand why Kickstarter allows things like that to happen. They should be perused legally by Kickstarter on behalf of the backers or something. The guy jetting off to Australia to throw his hands up and continue living his life is insane. I really can’t wrap my head around how they received SO much money over their goal in that campaign and couldn’t figure out a way to to pull themselves out of the hole they had essentially voluntarily jumped in. Maybe I’m missing something but it seems like they just about had a get out of jail free card handed to them but chose not to use it. I just...... HOW?!?! WHY?!? WTF?!?

That Foxtales Studio Logo plagiarism thing has me baffled. If they could draw a detailed anthro fox standing there in armor, why did they need to steal the tail? Did they rip off art from two different sources?

Have you done one of these on the Robotech Kickstarter. That was an absolute crazy fiasco. Plus the history of those involved is also really interesting

As a man who is fascinated by wars and battle strategies it honestly kind of upsets me that upfront didn't actually come out. I honestly would have bought the game for round $40 Canadian.

Chip Theory Games has successfully funded all their board games via Kickstarter, and they are generally cheaper and/or have good add-ons for backers vs later purchasers. 👍

Nah, it's sheer coincidence. It's like that one time I was playing Auto Modellista & enjoyed using the Skyline R30... Then a couple days later, I found a Hot Wheels model (in the original red & black colors) at my local Wal-Mart.

Usually, these happen to me quite rarely... Yet again, I wouldn't bet that there might be a game in the veins of the Dark Cloud games, anytime soon. Anyways, there IS another sheer finding of a Hot Wheels car, this time I was playing HW: Turbo Racing. I went to a hobby shop from outta town, where they sell old HW cars, most of them are packaged. Two of the cars in-game are the Cat-A-Pult & Lakester, and I managed to find both of them... But only the Lakester had it's original red color like in the game.

Another one I can think of was a Doctor Horrible game that hit Kickstarter not too long ago. It looked kinda suspicious in the e-mail newsletter it sent everybody to get the word out about the game. When it finally hit Kickstarter, the art looked like crap and there was no sign Whedon's approval for the project. Later, the Kickstarter was shut down after lots of criticism. The designers were hoping that if the project got funded, the Whedons would be so impressed that they would grant them the license of the game. Incompetence at its finest.

Man I'm still pissed about Evil Dead 2. Guess I should be happy I got the dice made from the cabin. Now there is another company trying to make the game and if they hit their goal, then the backers of the previous companies campaign will get a free copy of the game. They're at about $50k so far out of $195k needed, with a little over two weeks left. My fingers are crossed that it gets funded but I'm not super hopeful.
