Target Audiences
Lobodestroyo offers a family friendly gaming experience aimed at two-demographics:
25-45 Year Olds
Grew up enjoying Nintendo64 platforming titles (and their odd obsession with tracking down in-game collectibles). Appreciates some of the jokes and references that might go unnoticed by a younger audience.
5-12 Year Olds
Still enjoys Saturday morning cartoons but doesn't need to be spoon-fed. Lobodestroyo is designed to modernize the old-school mechanics for a current generation of gamers.
FAQ
Q: How far along is the game?
A: With a dedicated team, Lobodestroyo can be completed within two years. The core gameplay mechanics, player controls, world blocking, and look development are already finished. The remaining tasks involve generating content, including assets, enemies, and player objectives.
Q: Wasn’t this game already funded?
A: The Lobodestroyo project began in 2012 with a successful Kickstarter campaign, supported by 900 backers. These funds enabled the purchase of essential hardware and software for development. However, with a changing team of part-time developers, progress has been slower than anticipated. We are now seeking additional funds to dedicate full-time development resources and complete the project efficiently.
Q: Was the Kickstarter a failure?
A: Since the successful campaign, the project has been ongoing. Although the game is not yet complete, the remaining team members are committed to continuing their work, even on a part-time basis, to ensure its success. We are determined not to let the project fail.
Q: Is the game being marketed currently?
A: Due to the project's incomplete status, we are focusing all available time on dedicated development. Marketing efforts and social media activity will resume once we secure the necessary funding to complete the project.
Q: Are you accepting additional Kickstarter backer support?
A: No, we are not accepting additional backer support at this time. Our goal is to secure funding through traditional game development sources rather than relying on individual backers.
Q: Why not do a Patreon?
A: Managing a Patreon would divert time from our limited team that could be spent on game development. Additionally, we do not want to commit to the continuous content updates that patrons would expect beyond our current Kickstarter backer reports.
Q: How much funding do you need?
A: We do not intend to disclose this information publicly but are open to discussing financials with qualified parties. Investors can contact the team for business opportunities and partnerships.
