If this is the direction Kickstarter wants to take its future project line-up -- video-game-inspired and of creative, high-quality production -- we're on board. Kickstarter's official first Project of the Day of 2012 is Glitch, a fledgling webseries about a 20-something video-game tester who begins seeing 8-bit glitches in his real, otherwise completely average, life. Imagine it as a mix between Office Space and Scott Pilgrim vs. The World.
If that doesn't convince you to donate to the Glitch cause, the above trailer might. If that doesn't sell you, the prizes you earn by helping fund the project might. If those don't sway you, you're probably suffering a brain hemorrhage in your "potentially really entertaining webseries" lobe, and you should get to the hospital immediately.

Kickstarter is really an awesome concept.

Wow! Thank you so much, we are very flattered.
And hey, for today only: Come to the kickstarter and donate whatever you can. As an immediate reward, regardless of contribution level, we'll send you a private link to the fully completed pilot episode. This is a clever and crafty bit of trickery on our part because it will only make you want to contribute more.
2012, the year of Glitch! But seriously Joystiq (and Jessica) thank you for being awesome. :)

This series immediately loses respect for calling itself "Glitch"... no QA tester would call a Bug a "Glitch"

@TRiXWoN These are already released. So they are totally glitches. Their only bugs if a dev or designer can still fix/not repro/won't fix them. If they make it into the final game (reality), they are glitches.
