I'm waiting for a quote on an art-related thing, but I think I'm close to knowing how much money this will take. Anyone in this thread, sound off if you would be willing to pledge and/or whether you want to be part of the free alpha. Here are the pledge tiers I was considering:
$5: You get a digital copy of the game before it's publicly released, and a copy of the game when it appears on any other channels (like Steam).
$10: Digital copy of the game, plus an opportunity to play the beta. Your name will be in the credits and you'll have a chance to influence the game! (limited)
$25: Super Beta! All the rewards of the previous level, plus a personal touch added to the game: a new item, character, or quest - designed by you! (limited)
$100: Be a part of the game! You or your character get a house in Societyville, populated by family, or challenges, or bonus items to be found by the player.
(Only one, though I have room for two or three $100-level rewards based on the same concept.)
$1000: Personal financial advice and career counseling from the creator! I will seriously analyze your financial situation and then give you thorough personal advice. The advice will be "Don't spend $1000 on Kickstarter."
I'd love to play this game, provide QA testing, file bugs and give feedback.
It looks like an old school RPG with updated graphics... very interesting.
Other than all the financial mechanics and a less linear environment, it is definitely an old school RPG. Thanks for your interest.
Sign me up! I've been playing the same streaming online game (that I won't mention to avoid facepunches) for six years now. Would provide good feedback. :-)
I don't know how similar it will feel to WoW, but thanks for your interest.
It's ProgressQuest, isn't it?

Man, that takes me back. I discovered Progress Quest when I was working in an IT department and for a week or so we were all running it behind our work, sharing some of the funny randomly generated things.
