The Dust dude was able to make the game on a lower budget because all of the work was done by him so the labor was "free." He was not paying a team of professionals to make the game. His budget was whatever money he spent to live while he was making the game.
I don't know how much the budget for this new game will end up being, but it will be way more than an indie doing all of the work by himself.
I made my first comments before watching the video. He plainly states that he has other financial backers waiting until the "fans" pony up before they toss themselves into the fray with him. He didn't lie and that's cool but what the f u c k? Seriously, he could have them go in at the start and just produce the game "normally". This crowd funding nonsense is wack to continues to be a successful model. This joint is fully backed in one day. He better get rid of those "backer unlocks" and focus on the stretch goals.
It's hilarious how calculated these campaigns are. These people go in getting cream hand over fist cashing in on folks (in this case, nostalgia) and then who knows what else. Then the game doesn't come out until 2017. Congratulations nonetheless.
Can a mod merge the threads?

Indie.
And if we're talking in general, it wasn't until the last few gens that triple A titles have had very large budgets.
Then you should probably stop talking about games considering how much you don't know. Or at least stfu an listen when someone tells you something
Ignorance is a choice. Here's a little help.

And this list is obviously old because it doesn't include Destiny which cost $500 million to develop.

LOL did you really neg me on some nerd shyt?
You guys really believe that a video game cost half of a billion dollars to make? LMAO!
Ok we can agree to disagree. 500k for a HD SNES quality game makes perfect sense.
Exactly. That's the most expensive part. Mass marketing and distribution.
But I'm done with this topic. A video game cost 500 million. Right.
Bruh this shyt done.Go on youtube,there are hundreds of videos of fans telling people to support this.Looks amazing by the way.I loved all those castlevania gba games.I'll definitely be picking this up.It has already gotten over 100K
