The risks that lie in marketing a product on Kickstarter are vastly different, though financially insignificant as compared to diving headfirst into retail. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Where David would have conventionally had to invest in fighting with market monopolizers for retail spaces and shelves <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">within<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> those retail spaces, he works now towards selling a completely different experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For backers on Kickstarter, it\u2019s about more than buying a product. Superbackers on Kickstarter aren\u2019t the digital equivalent of a modern-day shopaholic.

With that said, it also means you\u2019re on maximum visibility at all times. Build a loyal fanbase, or crash and burn publicly. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is also part of the reason why gargantuan brands with proven track records and resources are now beginning to dominate the platform. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While Kickstarter and other crowdfunding sites were once havens for independent creators, seeking the direct funds to manifest their ideas, recent participation by more established companies have somewhat changed things.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, a recent campaign by Monolith Board Games, based on the ridiculously popular Batman franchise, raised over US$4 million\u2014over eight time its goal\u2014and essentially steam-rolling a few other independent projects along the way.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_19368\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-19368\" class=\"size-full wp-image-19368\" src=\"https:\/\/server1.webstudio.com.sg\/~staging\/ypsg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Batman-GCC-Game.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"563\" srcset=\"https:\/\/server1.webstudio.com.sg\/~staging\/ypsg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Batman-GCC-Game.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/server1.webstudio.com.sg\/~staging\/ypsg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Batman-GCC-Game-980x552.jpg 980w, https:\/\/server1.webstudio.com.sg\/~staging\/ypsg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Batman-GCC-Game-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1000px, 100vw\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-19368\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Gotham City Chronicles premiered as a Kickstarter exclusive that caused other game campaigns to lose pledges.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This only reeks of greed to me, but David puts my narrow perspective in place. He says the big boys have brought attention and \u201cnew blood\u201d to Kickstarter, who often spill over to campaigns like his. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThey\u2019re kind of the reason why the tabletop audience on Kickstarter is so big now.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What Now, And What Beyond?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The biggest thing I point out that Kickstarter lacks is that success doesn\u2019t necessarily leave an impression for independent creators. Unlike retail markets that require creators to break into, Kickstarter is somewhat one-off. Sales seem like they will remain online, and the foray into retail will still involve first-time jitters and pains &#8211; maybe even a duck-walk out after. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But perhaps I\u2019m missing the point. David explains that the beauty of Kickstarter is in how business plans can be adapted based on how well the market perceives it. Market testing is a driving factor for why many, big and small creators alike, put their campaigns up on Kickstarter.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_19506\" style=\"width: 687px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-19506\" class=\"size-full wp-image-19506\" src=\"https:\/\/server1.webstudio.com.sg\/~staging\/ypsg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Screen-Shot-2018-08-30-at-5.00.44-PM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"677\" height=\"358\" srcset=\"https:\/\/server1.webstudio.com.sg\/~staging\/ypsg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Screen-Shot-2018-08-30-at-5.00.44-PM.png 677w, https:\/\/server1.webstudio.com.sg\/~staging\/ypsg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Screen-Shot-2018-08-30-at-5.00.44-PM-480x254.png 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 677px, 100vw\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-19506\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/davidgoh\/endogenesis\">Source<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIf it\u2019s only a little bit above the success level, I would probably be a little bit more lax in pushing the game afterwards, but if the response is good, I\u2019ll probably try to get retailers a little more aggressively.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">David has focused his efforts internationally, because the board game audience in Singapore is too small and limiting to sustain creation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In years to come, expect to see Endogenesis release an expansion or two, but nothing more.
