A Hat in Time reaches all stretch goals on Kickstarter
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
A Hat in Time smashed its original target on Kickstarter and has managed to raise enough money to reach all stretch goals.
The game just surpassed $200,000 in funding a short while ago. As a result, developer Gears for Breakfast will add in elements such as full voice acting, a tune from Grant Kirkhope, and a full spaceship hub.
A Hat in Time may have surpassed all goals on Kickstarter, but three days remain in the campaign. You can donate to the project here.
