I only really noticed this thing because of their funding goal: one hundred thousand dollars! Jeepers! For one thing: what do they need that much money for, for making an app? Secondly, as I understand it, if a Kickstarter project does not reach its funding goal, they don't get any money at all. So it seems stupid to set such an unrealistic target. Big funding on Kickstarter (a brilliant idea in itself) has been known to happen for a outstanding hardware idea (like the Glif) which people really wanted, but 100k for an entertainment app? I really doubt it.
