List of Linux friendly Kickstarter projects

Steffen from BetaDwarf, the team developing Forced, was interviewed by TLLTS (episode 479).

The racing game Distance achieved it's funding goal and has added a few stretch goals.

Did anyone notice that Interstellar Marines has a new Kickstarter video now? It definitely is far better than the first one. However, with 12 days to go, and 494 000 US dollars funding still needed, a miracle needs to happen. Perhaps Linux users can request this to be a timed Linux exclusive if they do the majority of the funding?

Beast & Blades announced official Linux support:

They only have $1700 pledged with 5 days left in the campaign but their goal is only $12500.

Status of campaigns I backed

Maia is funded and now into stretch goals wit the first being pets at ?101010.

Beasts & Blades is probably a failure at $1800 out of $12500 with only 12 hours remaining.

Ormr (image editor) with $19K out of $50K USD with three days remaining. They could use an angel investor.

Interstellar Marines: Prologue seems to have stalled at $146K out of $600K USD with just over two days remaining.

Hero-U: Rogue to Redemption was funded last week but is accepting PayPal donations to meet stretch goals.

Forced is at $30K out of $40K USD with 5 days remaining

Pier Solar is at $126K out of $139K USD with 9 days remaining so they are doing well.

Other successful campaigns:
Distance
Super Comboman
Fields of Fresh
Arakion
Project Eternity
Carmageddon: Reincarnation

Unsuccessful:
Gerztron
DH: Mechanized Assault Vehicle

Forsaken Fortress - a post-apocalyptic RPG/RTS. Looks similar to Warzone 2100. Have to maintain troop morale with entertainment, bribes, etc. according to their personalities. Linux support from the start. $4700 of $100K USD with 26 days remaining.

The Banner Saga - Stoic (ends April 20), however they appear to have committed to a post-release client.
