  i dunno who put in the 'small amount' that was needed, but thanks.
  i can't wait for the desktop version.
  also now the pi people may be more motivated as now they are not putting money into the desktop support but into the pi support.

  @john26
  
  Maybe you should release a newsletter about it - also mention the full for free games - the latest list has one more game than the press release did.

  I think it is obvious who fill the gap

  It will reach the £3000

  my guess is surely the same but if this post was made after the kickstarter reached 3000, then it's not necessarily. my thanks goes to whoever it was anyway.

  Great news about 64bit and that the goal is reached!
  I increased my pledge and I know someone who will now contribute! There are still 7 days left :-)

  I'd also like to thank the awesomely generous benefactor who dramatically pushed it over the finish line (although he perhaps wishes to remain anonymous!). Thanks also to those who increased their pledges to £50 following my message earlier that also made a significant difference!

  Congrats on reaching the goal - I know I'm a little late to the party but better late than never....
  
  Looks like it's unlikely that we'll see an HTML5 export anytime soon - but having just picked up a couple of new Windows Phone 8.1 devices, I'm still pretty excited by the possibilities, Android, Kindle, Ouya, Windows, iOS - all from one build is not a bad deal
  
  My new years resolution is to get at least 10 apps submitted this year (the first is due to be submitted later today)
  
  Anyway - good luck with the development.
  
  Also - in case I missed it somewhere else (apologies if I did) - how will this work relate to the main Gideros app, I noticed that @Atilim released a new build last month and that iOS 64bit is coming soon - will your code be rolled back into the main Gideros branch?

  Even we already catch the goal, I also increased the pledge amount too as MikeHart suggested. Previously when Gideros was commercial we were already paying license fee which is more less equal to the pledge amount yearly. So for the additions to Windows port and all those functionalities it is worth
  In addition it is christmas spirit guys and motivation for all of us

  Folks, I'm working on the first goal of our campaign, create a full compatible 64bit iOS template to use as the export result. Once ready, I will make a pull request to the main repository.
  
  Let's do it.

  Hi @john26 one question;
  -After tests and improvements finished will there be any final release of Gideros as exe file. Or we shoul have to download the source code from github and compile by ourselves?
  
  Thanks

  Hi @john26 @marcelojunior may I suggest to highlight the Pi stretch goal on the kickstarter page since the deadline is coming?
  The page needs some scrolling before reaching the stretch goals paragraph: since the project is already founded, if people don't see the other goals I am afraid they won't back it

  @talis, we intend to create a binary release of the new Gideros. You can download the source if you want but it's optional!

  Just to remind everyone we are now in the final 24 hours of the Kickstarter campaign which completes 8pm January 16. The main goal has been reached and there is still a chance of achieving the stretch goal of Raspberry Pi support. (Unfortunately the HTML5 goal is not likely to happen this time...) So if you have not funded and wish to do so, now is the time! If you've put in only a small amount (eg £5 or £10) and think, on reflection, you might be able to afford a little more now is your chance to up your contribution.
  
  Thanks again for your support, we have been really delighted and humbled by the generous response from so many people. See you again tomorrow for the final countdown!
