It's interesting how different the tone is from the earlier video update, and it's clear that Taylor has been invigorated by the feedback he received from the Kickstarter backers.
Here's a snip:
"I called an industry friend to share this news and potentially get some advice," Taylor said. "He felt that I should very seriously consider also shutting down the Kickstarter, as my reputation was at stake in all of this. This had never occurred to me, so I was stumped."
Per encouragement from the same friend, Taylor decided to turn to the backers about whether or not the project should continue.
"It never occurred to me that the industry would rally like it did, and that people would then invest, not only in Wildman, but in helping me to save GPG and the team (in fact, it's probably the other way around, and I think the Kickstarter has become about saving a company and the game is a distant second)," Taylor wrote.
