I hope so! Might be tough now with the crowdfunding/pre-order model all but dead.

Quoted from epthegeek:They're not really doing the crowdfunding thing the same way though - they were building the game first, then going to take orders for production. Doing all the engineering and software and whatnot up front.
That's somewhat comforting, but as we're learning with boutiques (and I've seen firsthand with Scoregasm), building one game is the fun part. Production is the other 90% of the job. As an ambitious young man in Michigan once said, "making pinball machines is hard."
I'm in for Timeshock, but only when I can buy a boxed game. Catch-22?
I don’t see how they have any right to shut down the blog for a one-off homebrew that’s not for sale. I mean, can Disney stop me from making an Incredibles pin in my basement and posting photos of my progress? Post whatever you want; any legal threat is hollow.
If they had completed even one prototype in the last five years, this would be a non-issue. Maybe they need a public kick in the pants.
