Eugh, not a Kickstarter.
I'm already getting flashbacks of Might No. 9 and that whole shitstorm.
What about Nintendo?
Our budget left us with two options: Build the biggest, most beautiful game we can, or make sure it runs everywhere from the start. As things stand today, we can't afford to create the two separate versions of this game that would be necessary to make it run on every console.
Fucking bullshit. If they can't make this 2.5D game run on a WiiU, they can't develop games.

You do it, then? Don't come off talking like you know what's involved.
Yooka-Laylee too. This is an exciting method. Does it have its problems? Sure. So does in house funding.
I'm sure you read the last sentence, " That said, we've heard legends about a remarkable treasure hidden in the castle basement..."Fucking bullshit. If they can't make this 2.5D game run on a WiiU, they can't develop games.
I dunno about the Wii U but the PS4 and XBO have a similar hardware structure to that of a PC so this isn't really surprising that even Linux gets a port.Fucking bullshit. If they can't make this 2.5D game run on a WiiU, they can't develop games.

Well, Wii U not so up-to-date hardware, time constraints, laziness of developers, etc. (you know)
Actually I believe that having very strong hardware that allows for rapid (less optimized) development, and lets the development team concentrate on the game story, art, gameplay, etc. instead of the programming, is good hardware.
People may look at it as "laziness" , but you know, it is a world of limited resources, if you put more effort into the code optimization, you have to take away effort from some other place.
(...)
Also having stronger hardware to give more room to being lazy at optimizations would be better. Always. Perhaps.
At first I didn't get that sentense, and thought they meant there'd be an old in-game ninendo console inside a hidden room somewhere. But after checking again, the stretch goals are written on a castle, and at the bottom there are still locked doors (and below those would be the basement).I'm sure you read the last sentence, " That said, we've heard legends about a remarkable treasure hidden in the castle basement..."
Basically I interpret that as, "If the main version is successful, there is a good chance for porting it to nintendo systems". Maybe they even might do a spinoff title. Given that it's already about 60% funded in less than a few hours, Id say that's pretty likely!
