Submission + - Will that crowdfunded game ever actually ship? (The "2 out of 3" test) (fortressofdoors.com)
lars_doucet writes: The failure of the Yogscast game is just the latest in a long string of high-profile kickstarter busts. Backers should do their due dilligence, but if we're honest, most of us don't have time to run the numbers and dig really deep. So here's a simple "rule of thumb" test for quickly assessing crowdfunding risk:
1. Is it a NEW TEAM?
2. Is it a NEW DESIGN?
3. Is it using NEW TECH?
Scoring:
0-1: Safe (but not guaranteed)
2: Risky
3: Expect Failure
