Nice one guys.
How did you go about funding the project before you started selling preorders?
Thanks! We have no investor or publisher on board so we don’t really have much funding before selling the pre-orders. We started the project in our spare time though, way back when we still had full time jobs and studies, which at least reduced the time a bit where we had to survive.
One thing we did was to release a ‘quick’ small side project, www.planetbustergame.com, to get some revenue that way. This didn’t really prove to be an effective way though.
Overall however it’s a matter of that we try to keep our overhead super low and get along with as little spending as possible. That, savings and loans has been our way so far. Needless to say, our personal finances are incredible dependant on this game getting a nice reception
