no game no sale

The worst part is this would have most likely been fucking great.

>>381248157
The work in progress video was fucking awful.

>>381248157
The problem is that pure rhythm games have fallen out of vogue nowadays, ever since the Just Dance series drained that well dry a while ago. The failed Kickstarter is just a reflection of the idea that no one is interested in a rhythm game right now.

Thank god. Maybe people are finally wisening up and dont just blindly fund some nostalgia-fueled "FROM THE MAKERS OF THE GAME YOU LOVE - THE SAME GAME AGAIN"

>>381247643
They fucked up the KS really bad. Launching without a gameplay video, even a concept one, is bad enough as it is, but they didn't even have music samples in a game entirely about the music.

>>381247643
Those fucking stretch goals were ridiculous

>>381248882
It does pretty well for itself in Japan, but that was some time ago and the series isn't really in a good spot right now.

>>381247643
People talk about Parappa all the time but the truth nobody really cares about the gameplay itself anymore.

Also rhythm games are extremely niche and only /jp/ tier otaku actually care enough, but they're no fun allowed arcade machine autists and don't really care about casual visual games.

>>381248701
Project Diva Future Tone sold so well that they rerelease the game as a physical version because of demand. Guess fucking what. That one had 220 fucking songs for 60 bucks. Project Rap Rabbit had what, 6 songs for 30 bucks? Fuck off.

asked for too much money didnt recognize he needs to budget like a indie dev

>>381247643
This kickstarter got so much publicity from about every gaming site, yet no one really cared about the game.

>>381248857

What? The mechanic was amazing - the video said that the backgrounds and characters would be much better and that the rapping person was one of the devs, they really wanted people to understand the concept and it did look cool.

>>381252726
>body language
>its a fucking anime eye

Yea, you're full of shit kid, stop posting with that autistic behaviour

>>381252432
There's also the point that Kickstarter - crowdfunding in general, even - isn't that big in Japan yet, so who's to say they wouldn't contribute more to the project?

>>381254678
Just seeing a number on kickstarter doesnt tell you anything about the games budget.
Theres also that if you include a stretch goal it may add years into the developement cycle, you dont just put it down as the basic cost of salaries.

>>381247643
Why did they need that much money?

What happens with the money they got? Does it go back to the supporters?

>>381252831
clearly that anime eye had fallen into a deep despair, which those words did no justice, a despair strong enough to freeze it's already cold heart.

Yes, Kickstarter doesn't charge until the project is funded.

If they are backed by more than just KS money, it would've been a good idea to mention that in their KS pitch.

>>381255445
I bet he tried but seeing how this game is PS4/PC sony probably just told him to fuck off and fund his game on his own.

>>381255446
Not a scam, just Japan proving for the umpteenth time that they have absolutely no understanding of the crowdsourcing model and are only pushed into it by western companies who tell them how magical it is.

Wahetever I guess, I never actually liked parappa the rapper to begin with and I played it on my PS1 when I was a kid, I mean I understand the appeal but it certainly didn't appeal to me.

C'mon guys don't pretend that those strech goals have any bearing on the price of the goal in question. It's literally never been that way since this whole Kickstarting thing began.

Developers put the base pitch at a ridiculously low amount (here not even a million dollars) to make sure they get anything at all, then rely on stretch goals to actually get a realistic budget.

Otherwise they'd be asking for multiple millions and everyone would laugh at them for being greedy shitheads.

Don't act like these stretch goals are anything out of the ordinary, it's the same for even successes like PoE2, whose goals are filled with things they absolutely were going to do anyway.

You don't have to like it, but it's how the system works.

So what happens if they get the base money but no stretch goals? Just grab the money and hide?

Hope for the best, get outsider funding, basically everything the indivisible Devs are currently doing.

>>381252707
just because you were a creative director for a game or two doesn't mean you're rich enough to fund something like this. you need investors or you need crowdfunders, only idiots or the super rich use their own cash to finance something like this.

Nobody cares, and I do mean that quite literally.

Core gaymers don't care, rhythm fans don't care, Parappa fans don't care, the people that backed it don't care and the would be creators don't care. Nobody is losing sleep over this not happening, assuming it does actually not happen and they don't pull a "we secretly had a major publisher teehee!" like many other high profile KS projects.

Project Diva console style gameplay, except one half of the controller is for the background beat, and the other half of the controller is for the vocals. It would kind of limit the speed you could hit notes at though, unless you've got some god thumbs.

>>381247643
People have been burned too frequently. Most are likely just willing to pass or wait for it to be released, before opening their wallets. Plus, there wasn't even anything to get people excited or hyped about it - there was no game or even a demo that people could be playing while talking about the game. People interested in Bloodstained could go back and play the various Castlevania titles, but PaRappa and Gitaroo are obscure enough that it's hard to easily find a copy.

remember when Indivisible was not able to generate interest with it's crowdfunding campaign with a very slow start and it barely reached it's target in time, only because of diehard Lab Zero autists/shills?
now this game can't even hit a quarter of it's goal

Literally all they had to do was make an actual Parappa or Gitaroo Man sequel.
