Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on December 7, 2012.

      I agree with Bertram, the delay on the Classics Bundle seems a bit odd. I can understand if it's for the convenience of sending out the full set of games all at once, but seeing as the new stuff is taking a bit longer than expected (which is totally fine, I understand that games need time to get them working properly) it would be nice to get he classics as something to tide us over.

      Whatever happens I definitely am looking forward to the rewards, and to see what LAGS produces once it's up and running!

      Creator Bertram Vogel on June 2

      I'm really happy to hear everything is going well, but I don't understand why we can't get the Indie Classics Bundle just now? These games already exist and would be great to cover the time until we get the new games in our hands. When you deliver both game packs at the same time (classics + new) I will probably not play the classics at all, because I want to try out all these new crazy games.

      Creator LA Game Space on June 2

      Hey all! We posted an update yesterday to let everyone know that the games will be arriving slightly later than estimated due to several game creators needing more time to finish/test/deliver their games. (These creators are working hard to make games at the high standard that you know them for AND get them out ASAP.)

      We'll be posting additional updates as all of the rewards are completed. Thank you for being awesome supporters—your patience and understanding is very much appreciated!

      Creator Samuel Harris Dempster on June 2

      Agreed with all the other comments I'm seeing, some information on the games would be very nice! Especially since we're not past the estimated delivery time.

      I am stoked to try out all of those experimental goodies!!!! I wonder when I can expect them to arrive?

    6. Missing_small

      Creator Tim Maurer on May 29

      Yes, we were supposed to receive at least some of the games in May, weren't we? May's almost up.

      Creator Leonardo Jorge on May 28

      May is ending, an update would be nice!

      Creator Paul Anthony Webb on May 24

      Ahaha, I was going to ask about the games too. I thought I may have completed the survey late (although this is certainly a possibility).

    9. One_more_time-flipb.small

      Creator Jonathan Barrett on May 21

      I think the rest of us would be curious about an update on the games pack. If you're running behind schedule, then that's fine, but at least warn us. If on schedule, then please fill us in on an ETA.

    10. Missing_small

      Creator Cesar Lopez on May 21

      Just wondering, but when are the games going to be sent out? Will they be sent individually or as a whole pack all at once?

    11. Fb_profile_picture.small

      Creator Matt Norris on May 12

      My old email doesn't work anymore, is there anyway that I could get that game packs sent to my new email address?

    12. Missing_small

      Creator Boris Mindzak on May 1

      Aw well, thanks for the reply!

    13. La-game-space_595x595.small

      Creator LA Game Space on May 1

      @loren + Boris: We are not selling extra shirts right now, but there will be many, many more amazing LA/GS shirts in the future!

    14. Missing_small

      Creator Boris Mindzak on May 1

      I have the same question as loren: Is there any way at this point to buy extra shirts? I'm having trouble deciding which one to get!

    15. 02.small

      Creator Drew on May 1

      Ok, thanks for clearing that up.

    16. La-game-space_595x595.small

      Creator LA Game Space on May 1

      @Drew: No, the extra game packs are for people that added $15 on top of whatever tier they pledged so that they could give an extra pack to a friend.

      From the project FAQ:

      Q: How can I donate and receive more than one Game Pack?
      A: Simple! Just add $15 for each additional Game Pack and let us know when you fill out the backer survey.

    17. 02.small

      Creator Drew on May 1

      Are the Extra Game Packs all the rewards after the $15 game pack?

      Creator Alek Spindler on April 30

      okay, thank you!

    19. La-game-space_595x595.small

      Creator LA Game Space on April 30

      @Alek: They are for everyone who donated enough to receive a reward. //AR

    20. Tumblr_inline_mi2uazbsrv1qz4rgp.small

      Creator Alek Spindler on April 30

      are the surveys only for people who bought shirts or extra game packs, or for anyone who donated enough to get something?

    21. Fb_profile_picture.small

      Creator loren s faatoafe on April 11

      Can i still donate for more shirts?

    22. La-game-space_595x595.small

      Creator LA Game Space on April 11

      @Ben: Yes! We will be sending out the actual campaign surveys soon. Our reason for going outside of Kickstarter for the surveys is to accommodate everyone who bought extra game packs and/or extra shirts. It will also allow those who donated for a pixel portrait to easily indicate their artist preference.

    23. Cartoon%20ben%20106x125.small

      Creator Ben Gifford on April 11

      I filled out the backer response for shipping address. Will shirt selection come at a later date?

      To anyone who didn't hear (including Omer), we've published a massive update on everything happening with LA Game Space. Read it here: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/lagamespace/la-game-space-a-place-for-re-imagining-video-games/posts/446487 Thank you!

      Creator Omer van Kloeten on April 4

      Guys, would you mind using the Updates part of the Kickstarter project to send out your updates, instead of these comments? I came in to see why there hasn't been any activity in almost five months, only to find that there's lots of activity that most people just won't see because it's in the Comments section.

      Creator LA Game Space on March 31

      Everyone involved with LA Game Space has been working incredibly hard. We know some of you are most interested in the project itself: we have keys to the warehouse and will begin remodeling soon. The updates over the next few months will provide you an insider view of what you're making possible. We've also received some great requests (including the one below for a tour of the neighborhood) which we'll include in future updates. Meanwhile for those of you who are more interested in the rewards: we'll be sending out the backer survey this week. Thank you for your continued support during this transitional period—!

    27. La-game-space_595x595.small

      Creator LA Game Space on March 31

      Hello, everyone! We encountered an error last week in posting the following message (it was intended not only for Facebook but also Twitter, and most of all, Kickstarter). While we appreciate you joining us on other sites, we'll send notices and backer updates directly through Kickstarter.

    28. One_more_time-flipb.small

      Creator Jonathan Barrett on March 29

      It is a little off to update Facebook, but update Kickstarter. We're the ones funding the project, so if they have only enough time to update one place, it should be Kickstarter, not Facebook. Especially since we all get informed about Updates on Kickstarter, but even if we follow them on Facebook, there's still a good chance we might miss the update there, unless we go tracking down updates.

    29. Missing_small

      Creator Shaun Q. on March 21

      Good news. I just wish they would update here as I refuse to open a freaking Facebook account.

      Hey everyone, check on their Facebook. This comment was posted 12 hours ago:

      "Hey Wyatt! Updates will start flowing soon—we've all been swamped getting things ready for A. Kickstarter delivery and B. launching the Space this summer. Thank you for supporting the project!"

      They are working on things, guys. Be patient. :D

      Would really like some updates please!

    32. Fb_profile_picture.small

      Creator Lucas Parpounas on March 7

      Is there any reason for the indie bundle not being given out yet? They're games that exist already.

    33. One_more_time-flipb.small

      Creator Jonathan Barrett on March 5

      Hey guys, been a while since we heard anything. Not worried about rewards or anything, but it would be cool to see some updates on the construction, etc, like photos taken on the work-site, maybe even a tour of the nearby area? Updates are nice, you know?

    34. John_egbert_ghost_suit.small

      Creator Jack Lynch on February 28

      How will the games be distributed? Will they be downloadable right through this website?

      Well I think that no news means Hard Work and I'm happy with it, this is going to be awesome !

      Creator Morgana Goodwin on February 25

      I hope all your work is going smoothly over on your end! I'm so excited for LAGS to be a real thing! Counting down the days!

      A little over 2 months away from release! Can't wait!

      Creator Tiffany H. on February 18

      Can we get an update on the progress in setting up and building the Game Space? I'm content with waiting on rewards at this point, I just want some info!

    39. 272.small

      Creator Nicholas on February 5

      When are we going to get some "non-reward related" updates?

      At this point, I'm more curious about the status of the project.

    40. Fb_profile_picture.small

      Creator Alex Reader on January 2

      Are the t-shirts going to be available at a later date?

    41. La-game-space_595x595.small

      Creator LA Game Space on December 18, 2012

      Hey, everyone! Just a small logistical note: Don't worry—we'll send out surveys shortly before your rewards are ready (in May 2013) to request email addresses for game pack codes, your current shipping address, shirt selections, and all of the other details.

      We are also finalizing the designs of the gift certificates and will be sending them to all backers (at $15 or above) soon.

      Thank you again for your support! We're already hard at work and looking forward to 2013!

      I also haven't gotten a survey-- what should I do?

    43. Missing_small

      Creator Katie Reed on December 16, 2012

      Should the surveys have gone out immediately after the project ended? If so, who do I inform that I haven't gotten one yet. This is my first dealing with Kickstarter and I'm extremely glad it worked out!

    44. Fb_profile_picture.small

      Creator Joel Smart on December 13, 2012

      Yeah, I'd love to play some of the titles that are already available if possible.

      When can we get to play indie classics? Do we have to wait until May? :D

      Mega-congrats, you guys. I feel like sending you a card with Joe Biden on it saying, "this is a big f@#$ing deal"
