 Pixel Press, the video game creation Kickstarter, has now lowered its stretch goals to take into account Android users. Previously the app was going to be just for IOS users, with a very high ($350K stretch goal compared to the $100K base goal) stretch goal that would need to be attained before Android users saw a fully developed App. As Robin Rath put it, “Pixel Press is a platform for a broad audience, and needs to be flexible.”
