    Donated $100.

    If it comes close to the deadline and we're still far from the target, then I'll make some top-up donations, but I'd rather let others make their contribution. We might not get this opportunity again.

    Thanks to everyone who has donated so far :thumbsup:

    Just a little reminder for people to put there forum name in with the donation and send via 'gift' payment where possible.

    I saw this on unseen64.net, and I posted about this on Nintendo Age forum, might post on Atari Age and Digital Press. Can I ask why a site like kickstarter wasn't used? Not to doubt the OP, but we don't have much recourse to reclaim money via Paypal if the deadline isn't met.

    Because it wouldnt follow the rules of Kickstarter. You just need to trust the people involved.

    Unfortunately Paypal Germany is devoid of the gift option.

    Would "payment owed" not work in the same way, i.e. allowing one to send payments without fees?

    As Borman said, there does need to be some trust with things like this!

    If the total is not met in time there will be no need to 'reclaim' your money if you donated, I will refund ALL donations!

    Upto $426.92 at time of this post :thumbsup:

    Any chance of a piccie or two of the cart / media? (Even if it is a cart form we would have seen before.)

    Because kickstarter upon reception of DMCA takedown notice would close the project.

    The people involved in this are trustworthy, so there's little chance of any kind of funny business. That said, if there is, I got your backs on this.

    I'm sure codes will be provided upon release, since the game is playable to the very end, there's just no helicopter pickup. The game does have a sticking point at the Plant 42 fight, but if you modify the ram and port yourself into that room where it is, you can continue the game from that point on til the helipad. It's very simple to do with an emulator :)

    If there are no codes, I will try have a go at bypassing, loading some levels like I did in Crash Bandicoot.

    I don't know much about this game. But i normally apply custom modifications.

    The person donating the game for the fundraiser is the original owner right?

    I just ask because I think out of all the fundraisers happening, I think only Borman showed he is the original owner (so I would feel much safer about donating).

    In this case, if everything is what it should be, this game hasn't been spread around either, so we should all be safe in that way. Although I understand bringing that up, since some betas, especially the 360 stuff, has been passed through so many hands, it would have to be something special for me to spend money on it.

    I might be new here but I trust kiff.
    A fundraiser is a really fair way of going about this, everyone wins, we as a community get a game we would normally never get and the owner gets some money back on what they paid for the prototype.
