A game designer has to predict how much it will fund. Overshoot a goal and the Kickstarter will fail. Undershoot the goal may result in stretch goal hell, especially if the stretch goals aren&#8217;t planned properly. Caleb discusses his thoughts when he structured the Red Markets Kickstarter and what advice he got from other game designers. Remember that <a href=\"http:\/\/geekandsundry.com\/cthulhu-company-kickstarted-itself-to-death-then-this-happened\/\">a wildly successful Kickstarter can bankrupt a company<\/a> if it was not planned well enough.
