My Experience Funding Game Development With Kickstarter

For each of the three games in my series of dungeon crawlers (DRPG, blobber, gridder style), I've run Kickstarter campaigns. Two funded and one didn't. Here's how they went and what I learned along the way.
The games:
Into The Inferno:

Into The Inferno Kickstarter Campaign:
I misspoke when I said the campaign was for $750. It was for $500 but raised $750-ish.

maybe a pool of radiance style game is a good idea?

[@JasonChampionGamedev]

I've definitely thought about it. I've played that (and all of the other gold box games) a ton. I just wonder if it would have the same limited audience issue. Are you aware of any recent games in that style?

Archaelund seems the closest to this series. You can also take a look at The Curse of Feldar Vale, Dawnsbury Days and, of course: SKALD: Against the Black Priory. The Goldbox series is still selling well IMO.
