Jump Start (Kickstarter promotion show)

Post by MegapiemanPHD » Sun Jul 28, 2013 4:30 pm

What is Cracking everybody. I am Megapieman and this thread is to tell the world about Jump Start, a show I do on my channel where I help promote Indie game Kickstarter Campaigns. I do so by either having a short overview of the games demo, if available, or by interviewing the developer(s) themselves about their project. Below are links to the different episodes of the show and I'll be sure to update this post as more are released. Keep in mind that some of these Kickstarter projects may already be over but you can still get an idea for the games they were making so you can look for them in the future.

Hey this is pretty sweet! I'll keep an eye on it. I don't have time to watch these interviews all the way through at the moment but I'll hop on it when I get the chance.

Me and some buddies are making a game right now so maybe I'll hit you up when we have stuff to present and we can all do an interview or something!

Sounds great. I do both interviews and demo overviews depending on what's available. When you guys get things going feel free to link it and we can work something out.

Interview with Damon Branch about his kickstarter project Organic Panic is not live: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Emk9ay8DcwA

I don't usually post interviews this close back to back but with the end dates for this kickstarter I have to get it out when its still relevant.

8/5/2013 update
-I'm sad to report that Three Person View's Kickstarter for So I'm A Dark Lord did not reach it's goal, best of luck to Elliot K and the rest of the team.
-New Jump Start Demo overview for Krealit's game Guns N Zombies, which was pretty fun for being yet ANOTHER zombie game. I swear the fondness for Zombies in games has spread like a virus: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZS8u9s-SnAc

Losing a kickstarter isn't the end of the road. It looked like a neat concept so hopefully they still make it.

And is it spreading like a Zombie virus? :D

A big congrats to Last Limb for reaching their $40,000 goal on kickstarter for Organic Panic, also congrats to Dancing Dinosaur games for reaching their $15,000 goal for Collateral. There is still some time left on Collateral's Kickstarter so check them out if you want to help them reach their stretch goals.

You should have more views, considering the people you are interviewing.

I'm just glad for any views I'm able to get and that, hopefully, some of those views translate into backers for the Kickstarters. I've decided that I'll only promote one Kickstarter at a time so any interest I'm able to get will all go towards one project, instead of being split. Speaking of interviews though, new interview time.

This time I got the chance to interview Miles Tilmann & Rich Grilotti from PixelJAM about their Kickstarter for Dino Run 2, a sequel to the smash hit flash game.
