Nevergrind launched its Kickstarter campaign at 2 a.m. EST on March 18th, 2015. Within the first twelve hours, Nevergrind soars to over 18% funded! Despite only having 13 backers, it has managed to receive pledges amounting to $735. This is an average pledge of over $56 dollars, much higher than the Kickstarter average which is closer to $25 dollars. This is due in large part to the popular tier, "The Legend" which unlocks all premium features and rewards the backer with a unique legendary item.
In response to the tier's popularity, campaign manager Joe Leonard increased the limit from five to ten.
