Starting a kickstarter or gofundme campaign would be a great option only if you can spare an extra time for advertisements, publishing, publicizing, etc which would be challenging if you still have a developing community. It's true that you really need a month at least for preparation but major campaigns would take more than a few months to be recognised by kickstarter campaign supporters or gofunders since there are lots of fundraising campaigns to begin with and it's really daring to have compete with them at the same time.

Although i'm not an expert nor good at fundraisers but I think having a growing community of loyal supporters to help you out us really necessary to have a successful campaign. Btw if you have a patreon, it's surefire another way of raising funds for your projects since most indie game developers also use patreon to get the support they need.

I've read your blog it's true aging has really took a toll for most of us not unlike when we were young where there are a lot of opportunities to risk but as we get older we became wise to calculate risk so that our bright future would deem to exist. Fundrasing campaigns would give indie users a chance to earn extra funds for their projects but I don't like the idea of relying on crowd raised funds as a source of income alone. Starting kickstarter campaigns really should be planned very carefully.
