We're starting a Kickstarter to raise money to pay for Cesar's Hair Dye and/or Rogaine supply that he may need in the future.

Makes games - keep the hair. Support Cesar.

Bt

Haha, appreciated!

I can't wait to see what game she ends up making; I'm good for all three, really. They all look so good!

Hey guys, do any of you have contacts with Toegoff? Maybe he would agree to making a quick video regarding Jane's new company and Kickstarter?

KatieHal · « **Reply #23 on:** April 11, 2012, 10:45:18 PM »

Yes, we know & love Toegoff here

He's certainly helped us with reaching out to people quite a bit in the past, something we've appreciated greatly. I would imagine he's aware of our affiliation with Jane (it's rather hard not to, and we did send a newsletter out about it as well), but I think we should respect his decision in this case. It's his personal channel, and what he puts there is his choice, after all.

KatieHal · « **Reply #24 on:** April 12, 2012, 10:18:10 AM »

It's one of those we can neither confirm nor deny things. Suffice to say, yes, we want Jane to succeed, but no, I'm not going to put undue pressure on anyone to advertise her Kickstarter if they've chosen not to in their personal webspace.

Mine too! I'm glad she's back

greenisles · « **Reply #25 on:** April 12, 2012, 11:11:35 AM »

I 100% agree with you. Just saying, in case there was some misunderstanding.

KatieHal · « **Reply #26 on:** April 12, 2012, 02:52:48 PM »

No worries--we're cool

and we appreciate the enthusiasm!

KatieHal · « **Reply #27 on:** April 13, 2012, 12:14:41 PM »

Jane's kickstarter has passed the 50% mark! Woohoo!

Also, the vote on which game concept is going to get made into a game first starts this weekend for folks who've already backed the studio. Donate now to get in on the vote!

KatieHal · « **Reply #28 on:** April 15, 2012, 08:58:54 AM »

The vote is going on until midnight tonight for backers on which game concept will be up first, so if you want to be in on the vote, get in there!

And let me just say, since backers who are voting get some more info on the concepts and art, ladies and gents who are so inclined, Moebius's Malachi Rector, oh my. And you thought Alexander was a hunk! *fans self*

(also the story sounds really cool!)

KatieHal · « **Reply #29 on:** April 18, 2012, 11:24:13 AM »

There are new details on the Kickstarter about the first game to be made, Moebius--including concept art, plot details, and there's more about the prize tiers and possibilities for more than one game in the first year!

Looks like it just hit $200K! Woo!

We need more backers. Our average pledges are something like $70 per person, which is double that of Tim Schafer's project.

KatieHal · « **Reply #32 on:** May 01, 2012, 06:54:18 PM »

It's getting there, but does need one last push! The Kickstarter has 17 days left, and is at $252,107. Less than $50K to go!

Ooo, a new update from Jane promises a second game this year! "Mystery Game X" ("better than Mystery Game Y!") will also be coming out in the studio's first year

Looks like it just hit the 300K goal this morning!

KatieHal · « **Reply #35 on:** May 06, 2012, 08:58:01 AM »

Woohoo!! Go Jane, go!

KatieHal · « **Reply #36 on:** May 07, 2012, 05:52:04 PM »

Jane has also announced that fellow Sierra alum Andy Hoyos will be the Art Director for Moebius and posted a beautiful piece of concept art!

That art is beautiful. And I'm so happy to see we're still getting lots of backers after reaching the goal.

Congrats to Jane. The Two guys from Andromeda will also be using kickstarter, but they are going to wait a minute in light of all these other projects. It truly is exciting to watch this happening. My biggest wish would be to see the cancelled sequel to Willy Beamish come to be....

Correction.. Two guys started the kickstarter today!

KatieHal · « **Reply #39 on:** May 09, 2012, 08:12:57 PM »

Oo, some really cool updates from Jane:

My favorite is this one!

"May 17 (?? Date TBD)

An extra special treat! Will Binder (director), Dean Erickson (Gabriel), Peter Lucas (Von Glower) and I will be having a chat session to shoot the s*** about the GK2 production. How cool is that? We're going to be recording it earlier in the week and it may be podcast on the 17th. Still waiting for final confirmation on the podcast, but we WILL be doing this chat session and you WILL get to hear it this week!"
