Pro Wrestling X Launches Kickstarter Campaign

[WTF]

Re: Pro Wrestling X Launches Kickstarter Campaign

I'm not sure, I'm trying everything I can to get some eyes on the project. I know the first barebones game is ready to roll, and the funding that is going on will be going for the next title, we definitely need the Kickstarter to succeed to get the bells and whistles we all desire.

Dave & Eric said on facebook that a Wargames match, double ring match was definitely doable. That's the type of stuff I like to hear. No more monotonous gameplay/match types. Give us what we want. That's what these guys are trying to do.

Looks like a good project they've got going. I donated in one of the triple digit dollar tiers. I probably would have donated the full $5,000 if I had more cash to throw around!

Re: Pro Wrestling X Launches Kickstarter Campaign

Just donated $15, my first Kickstarter. Only at 7%. If I had more I would have given more but I am hoping this game picks up steam.

[WTF]

Re: Pro Wrestling X Launches Kickstarter Campaign

Me too. Even though there is a LOT of time left, it looks like it's losing steam quickly. The first day was awesome. I'm not sure how Kickstarter programs normally go, but I'd assume they maintain at least a steady stream of income. At this pace, it needs $2500 per day from here on out basically.

The good news is that the STEAM prequel, Pro Wrestling X Uprising, is likely coming out regardless of what happens with the Kickstarter.

But it would be sweet if they could get enough funding to really take this next version TO THE EXTREME with more modes, features and redone art/animation.

[WTF]

Re: Pro Wrestling X Launches Kickstarter Campaign

Exactly. I'm under the impression that Uprising will be released prior to Christmas. Hopefully we'll get further word on that this week. When Dave and Eric said that wargames will be a definite possibility if this gets funded, that's all I need to get amped. Better/more fluid animations, graphic overhaul, and matchtypes galore, as well as infinite customization.... Yes... Please.

Re: Pro Wrestling X Launches Kickstarter Campaign

C'mon goh... $5,000, you know you want to be in the game

I don't but if I did that's not much incentive. It's a PC version. We'll probably be able to superimpose faces.

[WTF]

Re: Pro Wrestling X Launches Kickstarter Campaign

Hey, you get a custom 1/1 championship belt designed too I agree, not a crazy incentive, but still yet, I think whoever does that, just wants to invest in the game period.

I have some extra cash put away to donate

Re: Pro Wrestling X Launches Kickstarter Campaign

They said on twitter that if the Kickstarter gets funded they're going to go visit Lance Storm and get him to do some motion capture for the game up in his training facility.

Re: Pro Wrestling X Launches Kickstarter Campaign

Got promotion from wrestlers and a donation from the producer of No Mercy:

Mark Out!

I’ve literally been stopped dead in my tracks multiple times this week, as news of Pro Wrestling X has spread to people I never in my wildest dreams imagined would ever care. But if you follow us on Twitter, then you’ve marked out right along with me as everyone from Lance Storm, Tommy Dreamer, Kevin Steen, and even Jonny Fairplay encouraged their followers to support us on Kickstarter.

And just when I didn’t think I could possibly be any more shocked, this happened…
No Mercy

The man who produced No Mercy supported us with a big pledge on Kickstarter. I used to give this guy such a hard time on message boards back in the day because he was also involved with Smackdown, which was at the time the bane of the “real” wrestling gamers.

It was a total class move of Sanders to support us and I can’t thank him enough. Ten years ago I gave him money to make wrestling games and now he’s giving me money to make wrestling games. Have things come full circle or is this a sign of the Apocalypse?
