I'm back from doing my usual round of yard work today. When I recently looked at the Kickstarter funds, my heart skipped a beat when I thought they reached the 1M mark, only to remember that the funds were based on USD and not the European Pound, and the USD really isn't as much as the Pound these days. At least we're over the halfway mark in terms of goals cleared.
So that means we've only got a few more hours left until all goals are reached by the end of today.
Speaking of which, what other goals do you all suggest they should add after they've reached all of them initally?
I'm thinking of unlockable alternate costumes since you guys were discussing about giving them accessories, including some console exclusive ones such as a DK outfit for the Wii U version, and a Banjo outfit for the XBone.
Other ideas may be online multiplayer modes if they haven't already announced that, and a post game Lost World similar to the ones in DKC 2 & 3 that'll test your platforming skills beyond the limit. Any other suggestions, like an unlockable sound test similar to Jolly's Jukebox, cameo appearances of other indie characters, etc?
Well just to explain, they are technically already past the 715,000 pounds mark.. At this point the difference doesn't matter. We are rushing toward the end of the stretch goals, ALARMINGLY fast..

As you can see we only have like 3 goals left. I think the image isn't updated because we are going too fast for them XD
Yeah. We are more than likely going to have the goals they have up now met in less than a week at this rate, if not even less than that.. lol
I wouldn't be surprised if they added more goals. I mean we blasted through most of their current ones like the Mighty Jinjonator XD
