We can still do it!

Come on people, don't be haters! They just didn't have all the physics on!

Only 22 hours left to go, let's get this sucker funded!

Jiblife's physics engine is great. It uses physx which is built into unity3d so there's no need for them to build their own. according to wikipedia even games like need for speed use that physics engine.

They probably coded it like shit though which would explain why the physics don't look realistic or whatever. I sort of stopped following the updates a few years ago.

I NEED A HUGE FAVOR


Can someone use their credit card and pledge $5 for me? I don't own a credit card and they don't accept PayPal. So I was wondering if you could just pledge $5 for me on your credit card, then I will PayPal you $6, and then you put in all my information?

PM me if you can do it! I need it super quick, there's only $15 minutes left!!

You know what they say, time is money. I would do it for you but I want no part in the funding of a game that doesn't exist. If it comes out and it's good, I'll consider it. Fuck it I probably won't ever play jiblife even if it's free. I'll just be so enraged each time i play.

I'm going to wait till a review and game play comes out, before I blindly put my money into a project that has failed to produce for such a long time. I don't care if the people who put money in before the game came out get the game before I do. That way people like us who didn't play can save our money if it isn't worth the buy. And wasn't this game supposed to be free anyway?

I wouldn't even consider this a fail. the average donation is about 28 dollars. that's a lot of fucking money for nothing, literally.

im convinced this is a scam and the jiblife guy is going to leave the country with his 7000 dollars. its only taken 8 years to pull off the heist.

They don't get ANY money, dude. If a a KS project fails to meet the goal, no credit cards are charged.

And yes, we should bring back Guize Skiing Game. The thread was in the Finland regional forum for a long time instead of being banned, but now it seems to be gone for good.

That's what I'm saying. Without a playable version or at least a demo offered to the public, why would anybody be willing to donate their money to these guys? Obviously there are the keeners who will pay to be the first to try a demo, but it's a terrible approach to try to get money to fund their game ...

oh wow, jiblife disappointed everyone?! no way!


At this point i can't even say I'd like to see the game done anymore. Jiblife more closely resembles a money scam than anything I'd want to take part in. What are the odds that no demo even comes out? The only evidence that jiblife even exists is a video of a group of people sitting in a room, probably playing ssx.
