In a clear stroke of stone-cold japanese craziness the Kickstarter for R-Type Final 2 is alive and kicking (ahem) but they've set it to run for only one week and are looking for something in the ballpark of 400.000$US. They've already past 100.000$ as of right now but we all know kickstarters ramp up fast and then taper of just as fast.
I can't believe they set it for just a week. Anyway, go and pledge right now!
Also, second trailer:
EDIT: Keep pledging by all means but the Kickstarter has been a raging success and has already smashed the first goal. This is happening! I guess I'm the crazy one for thinking this would never work in a week!
