The campaign ends in 44 hours!!!

The campaign ends in 34 hours!! Based on our average pledge per backer, we only need about 270 more backers and yesterday alone, we gained 133 new backers.

As long as the pledges keep coming, no matter how big or small, we have the confidence we’ll be able to meet our goal. 🤞

Burn the Midnight Oil is a 17+ queer, supernatural mystery romance visual novel currently crowdfunding on Kickstarter.

Our campaign ends on April 22nd, which means there's only a few days left to join our 1,100+ other backers and grab yourself some cool merchandise!💖

We're 70% funded right now. We only need a couple of hundred more backers to reach our goal. It feels like a lot, but we have faith we may yet make our goal in the final rush. And if you can't donate yourself or already have donated, please share this post so we may reach others who can - every pledge counts! 🦇🖤

If you’re someone who’s been considering supporting us but you’re on the fence because the goal looks too intimidating, even as little as €5 (our lowest tier) makes a major difference when multiple people support! In fact, if everyone who’s downloaded the demo donated just €5 each, we’d already have hit almost all of our stretch goals. 👀

(Also, even if the €5 tier doesn’t have the game— we believe all the behind-the-scenes content you’ll get from our monthly updates will be well worth it for anyone who likes BTMO! We love showing art wips, script previews, beta build screenshots etc etc).

Disclaimer that I am using averages, so these won't be an exact number and may increase/decrease

On April 17th, I did a calculation for needed Backers using the then-current funding

April 17th: — Funding Total: €56,723 — Remaining Goal: €28,227 — Average Backer: €51.57 (1100 Backers) — Minimum Estimated Backers Remaining: 548

That is genuinely not a lot left, considering how many subscribers were directly on the Kickstarter page. 2500 subscribers reported by the Foxglove devs

This is an totally achievable number of Backers!

I made another calculation about 12 hours ago, on April 19th

April 19th: — Funding Total: €61,221 — Remaining Goal: €23,779 — Average Backer: ~€51.45 (I forgot to note the exact number) — Minimum Estimated Backers Remaining: 462 — Previous Goal Minus New: €4,498 in 2+ days

And now my newest calculation

April 20th: — Funding Total: €62,457 — Remaining Goal: €22,543 — Average Backer: €50.78 (1230 Backers) — Minimum Estimated Backers Remaining: 444 — Previous Goal Minus New: €1,236 in 12 hours. For USD = $1455.33!

Y'all that's an insane increase for 12 hours! We are probably under 500 Backers needed! Join now!

I know this is a large remaining goal but please keep the hope up and Donate, Repost, Like, Share. BTMO has not lost until our time is zero, we are already making it, we just gotta keep going. As the devs said, go all in

WE HAVE NOT LOST YET!

I'm going to try to keep calculations posted. If you have any doubts left, legit just look at that number for yourself and see that people are working together to get thousands in mere days

Will you join them and fight!?
