I've been approved on Desura for Alpha Funding! I haven't finalized and published the game just yet because I am thinking of creating a video showing gameplay, footage of myself working on the game and speaking to the gamers about what the game is about and how they can help me mold it into something great! I'm really trying to take it out of the mario style mold and turn it into it's own game. I've made a lot of changes in the game but I am glad Desura gave me a chance to use their platform for Alpha Funding.
One of my questions that I'm asking my fellow Scirra game devs is how much should I set the price of the game at? And what should I discount the Alpha Funding (early adopters) price to?
The game is planned to have over 35 levels across 5 worlds with bosses and mini games and tons of collectables, unlockable characters and a full soundtrack with over 20 tracks.
Thanks for your advice.

*An update of what the first level looks like. If you've played the mini demo in the Scirra Arcade you can notice the difference.
