    They probably took inspiration from the hugely successful Thomas Biskup's Adom fundraising campaign:

    $50,000
    Demigod
    As above and receive the hard bound source code of ADOM for your personal perusal (that's probably something like 10 big tomes of source code). I personally will deliver the books to wherever you live and spend a weekend talking about ADOM, ADOM II, etc. with you if desired. Please understand that you will be required to sign an NDA with this collectors item to not distribute the content.


    That said, nobody donated on demigod level either.

    But there are a lot of oil sheiks or fresh Chinese millionaires out there, and what do you know, some may be bored.

    So it's 9 people working full time.

    I have no idea how much they'd get paid, but if it's anything like what software engineers (with uni degree) get here, that's like 30 000$ per month just for paying them. Then add extra costs per employee , and it becomes even more then that and then there's also the part-timers not included in that figure. Plus office space, investments, servers and the like.

    And don't forget they don't get all the money they raise, I'm sure steam, humblebundle etc take their cut, then there's taxes as well.

    yeah but how many people work in UWE i thought thath was 3 peoples the makers of this game or im wrong?

    You are wrong, the current people working on it are listed here: http://unknownworlds.com/about/
    Thanks for posting this link.
    I've checked this list and I see David John, and I am like 'Oh yeah, NS2 had some sweet music thanks to him', then I'm like 'wtf... 'had' ??? ', and I realized that I disabled music in a match about 2 months ago because there was a bug with never ending music and I forgot to turn it on later... no menu music, no game end music, not starting music or base near death music... for two months!

    75k isn't too much to ask, there just aren't too many average players that have that kind of cash handy, that doesn't make it a stupid request.

    if I had 75k to spare, it might be worth it just to command hugh to wear his trademark costume - and bring me a coffee.
    Record it, make the video highly entertaining, hope it goes viral, enable Youtube partnership, amass 1.5 mil views, and voila - you made your 75k back. :)

    So each youtube view is worth 5 cents? I wish!
