Some new awesome ones, we need to revive this thread.
Everspace: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/rockfishgames/everspace?ref=nav_search - A single-player 3D space shooter with rogue-like elements and non-linear storytelling from the creators of the "Galaxy on Fire" series.
Grip: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/169002413/grip-an-intense-futuristic-combat-racer?ref=category_popular - Inspired by the classic Rollcage games, with a lethal mix of heavy weapons and ferocious speed, GRIP is a new breed of combat racer.
Submerge:https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/icebirdstudios/submerge-underwater-rts?ref=nav_search - some underwater ship games including some interesting stuff
Sorry for the ugly comment I am too lazy to find out how to put the links into the names and make them clicky again.

Pixel Ripped and Pirates War were unfunded you can remove it, and that Neverending Nightmares sequel will be finished soon too as unfunded so you can remove it also.

Wow, this is a neat list!
I am very excited about XO and Battlestation. If I am not mistaken, Battlestation is on Greenlight a few months ago.
Though, I won't be supporting Kickstarter games, too many of them failed before even producing a viable product. Yes, there are indie devs that are good (Space Engineers, Subnautica, Hotline Miami, Killing Floor, etc.) but more of them failing to produce a viable product. I am content to pay higher price after launch than risking my money on projects that may or may not be done.
I will support them on Early Access though if they are good (I supported Subnautica, GRAV, and others during EA) but I won't be buying them if I see nothing to play.

New campaigns, this is a tough month, it will be especially with Divinity Original Sin 2 coming 26th. I wont list BattleCon Online, even though its a hit on KS with 25000 dollars earned on the 1st day already, I dont like it, if you like it list it.

So, what, you're not even going to link it? : /
This isn't just about when we ourselves would like, because if that was the case, a fair few of your finds would have been culled outright for being F2P or mobile-grade kickstarters. So long as it has a good chance of appealing to folks, it gets listed.
It's actually one of the problems I think this thread is having. Due to the sheer number of kickstarters getting suggested, it seems to make people ignore the thread due to TL;DR somehow, or an assumption of just being old / dumb projects. It's why I added the secondary list for the less noteworthy or less polished looking games that probably don't appeal as much, but that list seems to bloat pretty easily. Plus nobody is really talking and discussing anything, so the thread keeps sinking and vanishing from view.
Stuck between trimming back on the number of projects at risk of missing stuff other people would find cool (because we all have our own tastes, right?), and listing everything but ultimately lowering the number of people who bother reading, lowering the effectiveness of the list.

Plus I'm sure my formatting looks like garbage. I can't really do a whole lot there though.
Currently trying to nudge more interesting seeming projects higher up the list, but that just seems to make it harder to find new additions. Hnngh. It's been like this for a long time now but there haven't really been any suggestions on that side of things either~

Thanks for such an awesome thread had no idea you were here! "(New!) - Overfall is a lackluster looking fantasy turn-based combat game, with permadeath and random world generation." and I was sold. Most assuredly would have missed this thanks for taking the time to post all these.
Comment has been collapsed.
A fine example of how tastes vary. Had I spotted that kickstarter for myself, I would have ignored it and moved on, not considering it noteworthy enough to add to the overpadded list. Having people highlight campaigns they're interested in hopefully gets around the taste barrier.
Glad you managed to get some use out of the thread. It was Jovanmilic97 who spotted that one. He tends to come back with big hauls for us to pick through.

I personally want to apologize for not listing BattleCon, that was kinda rude from me and i dont want to make you mad. After all, this should be a thread for all tastes, not mine too. I will list everything I see its popular on KS, and I agree for formatting but im not exactly sure if you can make a table here, 1 for 1st tier and 2nd for 2nd tier, I am not into formatting so I dont know how to help you. Sorry again

XO and Nova Blitz were funded
Charlottes Dream was unfunded, will relaunch
Satellite Rush was unfunded, will continue developing
Submerge cancelled the campaign, they opened the closed alpha 2 days after cancellation

I'd refresh the projects more myself but I'm sharing a bad connection with someone who does competitive counterstrike. I can barely surf without causing pingspikes of 200, haha.
Disciples of the Storm was unfunded, and they're considering a new approach. Maybe a re-launch, maybe pre-orders through their own website, maybe wait for early access. They haven't decided yet.
Thanks for keeping an eye on the projects for me, it really does help!

Divinity Original Sin 2 https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/larianstudios/divinity-original-sin-2, no comment here
MUD https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/purebang/mud, has potential mixing hack and slash and sandbox
Red Awakening https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2055510258/red-awakening-0, amazing graphics what an improvement from the early days
Levantera Tale of Winds https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1376255402/levantera-tale-of-the-winds, reminds me of Shovel Knight with the style, adding Sid Meier Pirates elements to metroidvania is what I liked here
Tacopocalypse https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cherrypiegames/tacopocalypse, sucker for the stunt racing games

I wasn't worried. I have enough experience with Kickstarter and knew early on that it had a good chance to get funded. I also figured (when the goal got closer) that it would get to the goal before the last 48 hours start. I don't think it will hit the stretch goal, but I hope people prove me wrong.

Retronator Pixel Art Academy, Blackwake, Tower 57 were funded
Poi, Bootleg Systems and Dark Storm Ascension were unfunded.

Outer Wilds, the IGF winning game is being funded on Fig. +Amazing looking game -Being funded on new funding platform (albeit one that has some industry vets behind it). So, YMMV.
Comment has been collapsed.
This totally counts. To be honest the only reason why this thread was about kickstarters to begin with was because it was the largest crowdfunding platform. I actually spotted this before but was swamped in so many browser tabs that I totally forgot about it. Thanks a ton!

For new crowdfund projects, please refer to the latest in the comment section!
The thread opener is currently in 'zombie mode' and almost never updates, sorry!
This thread is for currently running videogame crowdfund projects, because nothing sucks more than hearing of a game AFTER it finished funding, when you missed the bonus goodies and discounts. Feel free to discuss anything related to keep the thread bumped so that your favourite projects get more exposure! Suggest any projects you think deserve a mention. The post-crowdfund thread has been retired due to the sheer size, sorry!
