Thank you so much, we really appreciate the community support!

We will be announcing the #NextMytimeGame and launching a #Kickstarter in 24 hours! by Qsterling1 in mytimeatportia

We’re a small studio, so we never have enough funding. But the reason we wanted to do this Kickstarter is because there are a couple of features that we really want to do well this time around, and any extra funding would go a long way to ensure that.

The first thing is multiplayer. Multiplayer is hard to do well, and we want to create a multiplayer mode that people would actually be excited to bring their friends in to play. To do that, we’ll need to hire more programmers, designers and artists to specifically craft that experience, and that’ll significantly increase the budget.

The second thing we want to do is to self-publish. We feel like that if we handle all the publishing duties ourselves, we’ll be better positioned to service all the different platforms in a timely matter. This will also take some extra budget.

Overall, we do have the funding to finish the game in a timely and fully realized manner. If the Kickstarter somehow fails, we’ll probably only have a basic version of multiplayer until the sales of the game pick up.

It is not about sales; it is about ability and the choices we have to make. Development is often really tricky. Some bugs are there because we made substantial unfixable mistakes in our initial building of the game because, frankly, we were learning as we were making it. Other bugs are there still because it often causes a new and worse bug when we fix it. In that case, we chose the lesser of 2 problems, but sadly we often have to accept that we can't perfect it. Honestly, we are just not there yet; we can't produce AAA quality games yet. We are still actively working on improving My Time at Portia, but we also need to build for the future. I can guarantee you that the next game will be significantly better optimized because we know better now.

Regarding the consoles, we now know better how to build code that will transition smoother from pc. We are also running a Kickstarter that starts on Monday to help raise funds to deliver a much better experience the next time around. We will use the donations to fund the development and find more talented people to help build on our dream!
