Figured the art was familiar. Oatmeal.

Mental divide-by-zero moment upon seeing the name of this topic.

That being said though... I cant say anything bad about it.  Something tells me they werent actually expecting people to donate a bazillionty dollars when they didn't need even remotely that much. 

The game sounds fun actually, and that particular artist is one I like (and that probably explains the name and theme), but I'm never in a position to actually be able to play card/board games, or local multiplayer of any conceivable type beyond fighters.... so yeah, cant get that.  Feh.

The funny part is that this immense sum leads to all sort of problems with taxation if they don't spend it as expenditure on the actual game. At this point they probably hope it doesn't get more... that said, not judging what people spend money on ;) I spend money on far stranger things...

Not the worst thing in the world. There's always that one potato salad kickstarter that raised obscene amounts of money.

I can already tell this is going to be a roller coaster ride of disappointment.

What? It's extra income, which is certainly taxable, but getting more is never worse than getting less.

You can justify any amount of Kickstarter money for something (co-)made by The Oatmeal.
