"We've got an amazing idea and business strategy put together, but we need a few more investors to realize our dreams. We've already raised nearly 40k in just two days, this idea is that good. We're tired of making budget crap for budget publishers, and want to do what we're good at, and that is making crazy multi player mayhem like in Gore! Investments of even 50 dollars are welcome and will make a difference."

ROFL. Awful strategy. You want to make money do what they did with Savage, or Mount & Blade... let people buy into a very fun but cheap game to build your company. Gamers love to support good ideas, but they want to be given something good upfront, even if the production values are nothing. Fun ideas are what will build any company.

Maybe they should convert the engine to work with the PS3, since the PS3 is the only machine that can simulate the fourth dimension.
