With just 30 minutes remaining on Dimension Drive's Kickstarter campaign, spirits were high at 2Awesome Studio following a €7,000 pledge that put them over their €30,000 goal.

Kickstarter usually has safeguards in place that prevents creators from not making their goal if people decide to pull out with less than 24 hours remaining on the campaign. So, what happened here? Kickstarter themselves pulled the €7,000 pledge claiming that it was made with a stolen credit card. That €7,000 initially pushed the Kickstarter campaign beyond the €30,000 goal set by the 2Awesome team.

Upon its removal with 30 minutes remaining, they were below the goal threshold and had little to no chance of recuperating that loss in time. Their campaign ended a short time ago this evening at about €6,600 short of their funding goal. 2Awesome Studio says that they do not know what to do and that they are "mentally devastated" following the move by Kickstarter, and to a lesser degree the person using the stolen credit card, that essentially screwed over their campaign.

There are some murmurings of perhaps seeing if Kickstarter could allow for an extension on the campaign but nothing concrete has been announced just yet.
