Kickstarter was the first of many phases of funding for Chronicles of Elyria. Even before the kickstarter campaign occured 5 years of development and personal funds went into the development of the game. After the Kickstarter campaign they continue to raise funds (now over 2.4 million) and will be doing other activities to raise funds. That initial amount that we got through the kickstarter campaign was only to help create a minimum viable product of the game.

hope this information helps. BTW the development journals say the same thing.

I know that Soulbound studios raised 1.3 million in a kickstarter for the game but isn't a game of this size going to be a lot more expensive than that? I don't know a lot about game development so could someone enlighten me?

If you refer to the store: https://chroniclesofelyria.com/shop

You will see funding is far beyond where Kickstarted ended.

It also won't be the only form of funding, over time.
