Since launching the Kickstarter project, the first thing I do in the morning, even before I brew my customary pot of coffee, I check the Kickstarter status. When Kickstarter.com loaded up today I was pleasantly surprised to see the Arcade project right there on the front page as the selected documentary feature. What a way to start my Monday.
It is a strange experience receiving such amazing support from the Kickstarter people. People I have never even met. Not even digitally! At some point I want to thank them for all the help and making this opportunity a reality. I think Irene and I will bake some Pac-Man cookies and bring them by the office.
Please keep spreading the word about the project. We are almost at 50% of our funding goal and just broke 100 backers! Over the weekend we met with Henry Cen from Next Level, Pat C, and Suesan from Xcubicle to discuss the Kickstarter backers party at Next Level. If you have donated to the project you are invited to the party at the new arcade in Brooklyn. Free drinks, video games, and music. Plus, I will be showing some footage from the movie. We have a date set for May 25th, so mark your calendars!
