Shadowrun Returns Kickstarter Project Update #2, $436,000 and Counting

The power of Kickstarter is highlighted once again with the funding of Harebrained Schemes’ turn-based RPG Shadowrun Returns in just 28 hours, and that’s called for a second update from the team that amounts to more-or-less a hearty thank you to the fans. It also hints at their plans for funding milestones beyond the original $425,000, and with 23 days left to go, they’ll likely plow through a few of those as well:

Wow, that was incredible.

From the bottom of our hearts, we’d like to say THANK YOU to everyone who has backed us so far. If we weren’t working our butts off on our new game, we’d be dancing around the Closet (our tiny office) with tears of joy streaming down our faces. Instead, the team is heads-down at their computers, sniffling loudly and wiping their eyes with their shirt-sleeves.

To everyone asking about a Mac version of the game, we’ve been saying that if we hit the $425,000 level, we’d add it. Linux support is definitely on the table too! (After all, who’d be a better Decker?)

In Jordan’s video update below, he talks about things we could add to the game if we hit higher funding milestones. We’re working on clarifying those milestones and will have an update for you before the weekend (in Seattle).
