How Amy & Dusty defied all odds with BOTANY and raised over $1M on their first Kickstarter

Masters of Crowdfunding

Episode 8: Dusty and Amy Droz are the husband and wife duo and co-founders of Dux Somnium Games. They launched their first game, BOTANY, on Kickstarter in May where they raised over $100 thousand in the first 24 hours and went on to raise over $1 million by the end of the campaign.

Hitting the million dollar milestone puts them in the top 0.13% of all Kickstarter campaigns ever and they did it on their first try

So in this episode, Dusty and Amy graciously share the story of BOTANY – the ups, the downs, what worked, and what didn’t. It’s a fascinating tale that will leave you with many lessons you can apply to your own launch. So without further ado, let’s dive into today's episode with Dusty and Amy Droz.
