Just launched my very first Kickstarter - https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/esenthel/into-the-dark-1​

Wish me luck ?

Anyone has any ideas what's the best way to promote stuff like that?

And what you think of the game?

@esenthel Those are som fast hands!

From what I understand, Kickstarter itself is often used as a marketing platform for finding investors/maximising Steam sales upon release. I guess a surefire way to get people onto your Kickstarter is to start some community with your fans and start interacting with them. Being personable seems like a strong marketing trick.

In regards to the Kickstarter itself I think saying something about why you need this funding could be beneficial. The Kickstarters I've looked at before usually explain why the money is needed and what will not be possible to achieve if the goal is not reached.
