Project Phoenix is speeding towards its first stretch goal with $305,209 pledged on Kickstarter at the moment of this writing, and the development team made the “huge DRM announcement” that was teased earlier today.
“I do want to finish the game. I do want to, I even want to, I never said this in an interview before, but I even want to refund their money because we didn’t keep the timeline.” Yura explains.
Kickstarter backers can be a negative bunch, but it seems they reserve most of their piss and vinegar for Japanese developers. Why is that?
Joanna Mueller writes: "In the end, CIA's increased scope only served to drive backers further away. Players were not impressed when the team finally released a vertical cut of the new 3D gameworld. CIA was reluctant to start over after investing so much money into their 3D models."

It's amazing how much people are supporting this. You can literally just watch it rise. I look forward to seeing some gameplay
