I heard about this film when it popped up on my Twitter highlights. With familiar artists such as Bill Plympton, and those who have worked on Cuphead and Hazbin Hotel on board, I decided to pledge towards this project.

Context:

Ashens is a guy who usually reviews relatively useless items on his couch. Apparently at some point, he made a film with some familiar faces such as Chris Bingham and Larry Bundy Jr. I didn’t even see the original before deciding to back this sequel. I saw it later though. Of course, I had to aim for the “name in the credits” tier, which was pretty expensive.

Result:

The film has not yet been released.

Pledged: $50 per episode

Video Games Awesome is a Let’s Play series I’ve been watching for many years now. But previously, the people behind it worked on a comedy series called Awesome Video Games.

Indiegogo funded on: February 12, 2016
Estimated delivery date: December 2016

Context:

A masterpiece in Korean indie animation, the There She Is!! series was first introduced to me on Newgrounds. It has since been remastered in HD for YouTube, and was neatly wrapped up in its 5th and final episode. However, an opportunity to crowdfund a bonus 6th episode and a DVD of the series arose, and I couldn’t pass it up.

Result:

Digital rewards, including the wallpapers, have been distributed.

The 6th episode premiered exclusively to backers, on Newgrounds, starting from August 15, 2020.
