It's been three days, and we've managed to get a little over 3k€ in the bag, equaling roughly 22% of the funding goal. It doesn't sound bad on the face of it, but by general metrics, this has been determined to not be enough.

The data for the approximated trends for the campaign are not looking good. As you can see from the image, the current trend is falling below the funding goal, as the amount of pledges has basically plateaued.

So, what can I do about this? Well, I am not enthusiastic about cutting back the funding goal of the game and doing the rest of the original scope as the initial stretch goals, but that might be necessary. I'm also considering a price cut for the PDF version of the game (down to 20€), either for the duration of the Backerkit campaign or indefinitely, and providing a free code of Pathwarden for all people who pledge Digital Warden or greater, in case these actions would stoke some traffic to the game. 

Changing the funding goal would require relaunching the project, which would cancel all of the pledges made for the game. It's a risky move, but it might be necessary. 

I'm opening a discussion on the topic here, and I'm taking suggestions for what to do with the current situation of the campaign. Any actions I take would not happen immediately, I'm only preparing for the eventuality where the campaign falls off the cliff. There is also a possibility of a meteoric rise through a signal boost or simply doing one of the less radical steps, but for now, I'm simply opening the door for this discussion.

NOTE: If Pathwarden is added to the pledges as a freebie, anyone who has bought Pathwarden during the campaign would be eligible for a refund in case it would be covered by their pledge.
