Gun-Nose: KS asked for 61k - now has over half a million

I gave up hope of ever creating my own game years ago because I saw how hard it was to get it noticed under the piles and piles of smoo, dished out daily, by Indie and Amateur devs.
I saw a Kickstarter add for "Gun-Nose" on Youtube and found the game quite interesting.

I've never supported a KS project and I'll even wait for this to turn up on Steam before tossing bling at it
but after seeing the dev come so close to being a millionaire, so quickly, I am wondering if I should've invested more time in learning a game engine.

To answer your question, there is no way to learn how to catch lightening in a bottle. Do whatever you want to do and apply yourself.
