1 million in two days, this is going to be very stressful... and I love that.

Now is definitely the time for them to add some awesome 5.5m goal!

Maybe a bloodstained/castlevenia inspired arcade game just to rub it in ;)

I'm still in work on overtime to get 100 GP referrals done, and I've processed like, 3. Seriously need to get back to work but watching that figure climb is highly addictive.

Hey, why not team up with the Bloodstained team?

Yep! Smashed that $2 million goal, we are going to get more than a barebones Shenmue game now and with more than two days left there's a chance the fighting system might get upgraded also! ^_^

This!
I have no worries now that we'll get some trimmed down version of Shenmue. 5m seems like a good budget to deliver something well beyond our expectations. Anything else is a bonus now.

^ I'm absolutely with you there, guys. Man, what a great time to be a Shenmue fan. I still can't believe that all of this is happening, I'm just so incredibly happy about it. I also decided to up my pledge from 100$ to 300$. This is a once in a lifetime thing after all. And even though it doesn't really matter, I'd still like to see Shenmue III beat Bloodstained for the title of most funded videogame on kickstarter.

Think super long term goals also, Sony probably has more of an interest in Shenmue now so who knows, they might fully fund Shenmue IV.

Great it reached this grand milestone. Still a bunch of hours left. The Kickstarter is gaining steam and going pretty fast. Would be awesome if we somehow hit 6 million but otherwise I'm already pretty happy.

Sony might not be around once it's time for Shenmue 4.

How can we reach Brazilian/Portuguese audiences and tell them we're so close to the Portuguese stretch goal?

I found a couple video game-related Twitters/sites:

I don't think they respond/retweet to messages, though. Anyone know how we can reach this audience?

Is that what the character perspective system is?
