Risks and challenges
We have lowered the risk by completing a large part of the games final maps and have the art content ready for the designer and programmer to work with. However we may run into unforseen production problems.
The funding goal we’ve set will allow the programmer and designer to do the work of creating a wonderful game with this art. It would have been easy to set the goal lower, but we’ve asked for exactly what we need.
