'The Most Backed Campaign in Kickstarter History' has nothing to do with:
The team have been posting updates on the Kickstarter page, and were quick to point to the fans as the source of their success. Just over a week later and they've surpassed their $10,000 goal, in fact right now the total raised is $4,342,186 (and the figure is going up even as I write this.) That's 110,284 backers (again, rising every minute.) The trio launched their campaign for the Exploding Kittens card game on January 20. Just when you thought the world had developed a nasty case of Kickstarter apathy game designer Elan Lee, former Xbox exec Shane Small and online cartoonist The Oatmeal have just achieved the most backed Kickstarter campaign ever.
