Yes, not bad at all. I would back it too, if I could afford to.
What I wonder is, did they have a following from before, and that is how they were able to reach enough people to get to 200% of their goal in so short time? Or did it simply spread organically because of how awesome it is? The video was really good and convincing. I just always wonder this because I would like to do a Kickstarter for a project of my own some day maybe, but don’t have any following so I think my project would not receive enough backers. But if it is possible to get backing without a pre-existing big group of followers then that is very encouraging.
Edit: Also, what’s the name of the chiptune at the end of the video again? I’ve listened to that one many times before but can’t remember what it was called.
The main creator of this has been posting about his progress for months, personally I've been following its development ever since I first saw it. It's such a neat project that I can totally believe this being entirely organic growth.

6 hours later, that $130k is now $437k. And it was up for a bit before GP posted their comment - 30 to 50 minutes, I think, so a good chunk of that 200% may well be from here as well.
