I really liked Bee's original design, she was cute. Now she's just like an obese autistic child. I really wish somebody would take over the show.
>>
You type like an autistic teenager whose only prior exposure to 4chan is through ebin screencaps that circulate on facebook.

But to stay on topic, that's what comes with backing a Kickstarter. Most projects fail. Consider yourself lucky that you're not one of those fools who coughs up $200 or more just to see it go down the drain.
>>
>>82007715
It's sort of amazing the difference the design made. One is like a semi-functional adult with kind of socially awkward/manchild tendencies and the other's just a fat possible retard. Having two different socks in the redesign really doesn't help.

I actually wasn't blown away by the pilot and so the character seeming different may be due as much to a change in writing/vision as anything. But the redesign really is awful.
>>
>>82007056
I didn't get to donate but I wanted to. I too feel betrayed.
At least i got a poster and a magnet from conventions with the original designs.

I almost always wear mismatched socks. They just get lost way too often and I've grown to not give a shit since they're almost always covered by my pants or boots.
>>
You guys seem to think this is all Natasha's fault when they were forced to redesign the character to simplify animation costs (Since they still outsource them to Korea and they gave them too high of a price for the pilot's detailed designs), YouTube changed how their videos make money which means a single episode of B&P gets them no revenue, now it NEEDS to be "parts one and two" just to meet the 10 minute mark (= more delays), and they ran out of money since $900k for a professionally produced cartoon going through the same pipeline as a Nickelodeon show is literally chump change. An episode of Invader ZIM cost $900k, for comparison.

I didn't particularly mind the visual redesign. I didn't like it either, but it was good enough I could deal with it.

My issue with the rework was that she spontaneously gained a sub-30 IQ. She went from mildly autistic to full blown window licker.

I just watched the episodes.

I like the look and the color. But damn, they made Bee a really annoying protagonist. I have never seen a main character so annoying that I immediately didn't want to root for her. The guy can do better.
>>
I'm still baffled why they think it's okay for her to act that way. Random shouts, random tones in talking, etc. These are supposed to be funny? Her being very incompetent is supposed to be funny? I think they went overboard. A lot of the things she does is very annoying, and this is a surprising feeling to me because usually I can tolerate shit like this in cartoons.

well why don't instead outsource to another alternative? also i don't know where the original pilot was made but i'm pretty sure that if it was made "for free" the money can at least warrant more from where it came

another kickstarter that kicks the crap due to poor money management skills

Because they had a good idea for a pilot that was probably a LONG time in production, and then they suddenly get money dumped in their laps, and they realize they had no plans on how to continue.

I mean, I understand what you mean but really
They set up some stuff and NEVER delivered
The few shitty episodes we got didn't continue anything about Puppycat's past or foreshadowing for whatever that meant at the end of the first episode
In the Pilot, Bee is living like crap and clearly has issues she is not adressing, but then in the next episodes everything is okay even if she acts even more like a retard and tries to be 'comfy', but is just dumb
They literally only had to follow what they were doing on the pilot, but no, they fucked up on something that simple

Come now Anon, that's not true at all.
She looks like she's got Down's syndrome, not autism. Most autists look more normal.

is bee and puppycat pretty much the norm for what "quirky" 18-20something teen girls like/for something targeted at them?

that's the vibe i got from the pilot. without getting into meme-insults, it did feel quite "tumblr" (as in actual tumblr user you might meet in real life, not the SJW stereotype.)

>mfw i will never get those $25 back
kickstarter and patreon are in the first place donations! Not payment! When will people realize that?

let's be fair, they had a pilot, you can only assume these people can make it work right? they just have to keep doing the same shit, ideally...

now i also blame the fucking backers who just stood there passive, if i remember right /co/ was discussing the new designs just as they were shown, everybody knew they were fucking ugly designs they even joke about the length of Bee's crotch, those backs had the opportunity to demand what they were sold, i compare this as selling you icecream, giving you a small sample but after your payment give you a fucking glass of semen, cus i ran out of milk because it was just fucking expensive, you already know and did nothing about it

true, and it showed that they at least did SOMETHING, but for someone to be taken really seriously they need to prove they can also be consistent, both in artwork and work ethic.

unless, as i mentioned earlier, you realize this is just a donation. I once pledged together 3$ to a patreon, and the comic i pledged to didn't deliver what i expected, so i stopped pledging towards it. I don't regret it, because, it's just a donation
>>
>>82019510
>I don't know how the fuck you've managed to afford electricity, internet, or the laptop/phone you're using.

If you spend almost every cent each month to pay your bills, you want to make sure that the little leftover you have can be spend for good use. Just because you can pay your bills doesn't mean you have just as much extra lying around in your house
>>
>>82019510
>everyone has as much disposable income as indisposable income
>>
>>82019510
Look at it this way.
Equivalent costs.

$25 is just about two movie tickets and a Wawa sandwich.

Looking at what we got of Bee and Puppycat beyond the awesome pilot, you better believe that if I was OP, I'd rather go see two movies and eat a half decent fast food hoagie than watch what was delivered to us.
>>
>>82019920
If you're just scraping by where you only have a hundred or so leftover each month for "luxury" spending, you shouldn't be throwing it away by supporting other people, you should be using it for yourself on stuff you know you will enjoy (A movie, a game that is already made, DVDs for a show you're a fan of) or saving it. Kickstarter is a gamble and Patreon is just paying for other people's rent, if you blow your money on that, you have no one to blame but yourself.
>>
>>82020071
i am with you on that, but my reply to you wasn't about whether patreon/kickstarter is a secure payment for enjoyment or not, but that 25$ or 100$ is a LOT of money, even if you can pay your rent

Her new design was just so... soft.
She looked like a marshmallow in a dress.

In the original one, she looked like a shiftless 20 something who blows all her money on stupid shit while between jobs.

Then they just turned her into Quirky Female Protagonist #583 for whatever reason.

Goddamn, this is just one of the saddest Kickstarter stories I can think of.

Everyone hired on after the kickstarter is either a woman or a queer/beta male. One person fucked up the character designs, and everyone else was too polite/cowardly to point out how bad they were and just accepted it.

Nat basically made the pilot on her own, which is why it's perfect.

It looks and plays like shit, its nothing like they promissed, also the game was supposed to come out last year but they keep pulling it back every month to this day.
Also there's this drama because a Twitter feminist got involved in the creative team halfway through the kickstarter bia liyjng the shit out of it, also they made her a mod of the kickstarter for a while and every bad review or "problematic" coment there was (specifically involving refunds) were promptly delete and banned also making the refund even more impossible.
They also put the worst Roll Expy into it.
Instead trying to be its own thing it was still fucking Megaman doesn't matter where you look at it.
Also they wasted half the money into trying to make a CGI animated series that got cancelled because the trailer per se was too expensive.

You know, for all our "we told you so" and "it was always shit", I honestly understood why the pilot was hated so much.

You just need to be smart with who you back. Don't just back a project that tries to coast on spiritual successor and "we have a guy that was involved with the original" bullshit like with Mighty Number 9, they need a well developed timeline or something concrete to showcase beyond a pie in the sky concept else you're going to get delays and broken promises. At least with animation, there's always the Reward people who had a bunch of stretch goals but so far managed to deliver on at least one episode that was just as good as the original.

I think it was Urbance on kickstarter, it looked like a really cool animated short to be used to help pitch it. I didn't have the money too donate but it got funded. Apperently they had to change the core concept cause a bunch of sjws were bitching an it came out pretty terible except a cool style.
I just feel bad for the guys that made it.

>>82010427
the major problem is, the Pilot was a labor of love, the people working on it WANTED to make this, so they spent the time and energy to make it exactly as they wanted

Then when it came time to make the actual series they sort of ran out of steam, they could no longer afford to spend as much time or money on it, so they had to simplify the characters, a detailed costume like the frilly cat dress would take a long time for movement to be viable, plus the shape of the character and the choice of baggy clothing means a LOT of fabric movement, so they simplified Bee into 5-6 simple shapes, round face, round hair, round torso, tubes for the arms and legs, and a semicircle for the skirt.

Puppy cat seems to have been spared simplification, which is good, because otherwise it would just be a literal blob.

it lets them cut down on costs and time required, which is why its a shame that with all the money and time it's taking them to make each episode seems to be going to waste.

When you're an adult in modern society, you're probably going to have so many bills, loans, and debt to pay that, unless you're forever working as a cashier at McDonalds, you're not going to regret for the rest of your life how you wasted $100. Maybe the first two weeks, but fucking people who say, "Regret it daily" are just poorfags who are careless with their cash to begin with. No pity.

On topic, the redesign is shit. I understand that it was supposed to save money for details, but it doesn't mean that they had to increase Bee's weight to the fucking universe.

Go back and rewatch Zim some time. The show is gorgeous. It uses a lot of CGI that's extremely passable for the time, has really detailed backgrounds, the camera cuts around a lot, and the characters all have this weird fluid way of moving. You can see why it was expensive as fuck.

well the best way to look at the target audience for cartoon hangover shit is just to look at the creator. From what I've seen, one purpose of cartoon hangover is to give creators the license to kinda do what they want, rather than be bound by the restrictions and difficulties of tv animation. They don't really cater to anyone other than themselves, which is both a bad and good thing. Bee and Puppycat is made by Natasha Allegri, and the humor and style is reflective of what SHE likes, which, coincidentally, fits the interests of other 17-25 internet girls, of that demographic, a large portion of tumblr's userbase is made up of this.

So, this was a longwinded way to say, yes. This is a 'tumblr' animation, but in the regular tumblr way not the SJW side.

Eventually, sort of. Broken Age kickstarted with a goal of $400,000. After getting over a million, they ran out of money and had to ask for more, and release the game in two parts. Broken Age part 2 wasn't any longer or better than 1. In fact, it was much worse.
Combine this with missed deadlines, and the fact that they crowdsourced because they couldn't find a publisher who would work with them to begin with.
Imagine having $3.3 million, almost 10x your asking price, and still missing deadlines and creating an inferior product.

Broken Age wasn't really that good considering just how much they surpassed their initial goal and they spent some of the money on a party with DJ Phil Fish (yes, that Phil Fish) and then ran out soon after so they had to beg for more. There was another game they worked on, forgot the name (something with space stations), that they essentially just flat out gave up on and left it a broken mess.
