]]>With all of those campaigns competing for your attention, it can be tricky to find ones based on your interests. Let KnowTechie do all the hard work for you, with our picks of the crop for March.
Check out these 11 awesome crowdfunding campaigns this month
So… with how many crowdfunding campaigns there are out there, how do you choose what to back? Well, I use a combination of checking out their campaign page, looking to see if any of the comments on their prior campaigns show dissatisfied backers, and also companies I’ve already had successful pledge fulfillment from.
I also tend to stick to gadget areas that I know a bit about, like photography, cooking, maker tools, and writing implements. That way I can judge if the campaign’s aspirations are within reach or not, which adds to my decisions. I’m also picking campaigns with some time left to run, as it’s no fun finding out about cool campaigns after they’ve finished.
So, with all of that out of the way, here are some of the crowdfunding campaigns I’ve found worthy of attention in March:
Transformer Couch
Is your couch locked to the seating positions it came with? How boring. Transformer Couch lets you rearrange it into the seating you need, when you need, from traditional layouts to fully-separated if you really need the extra seating.
Split off an accent chair, or turn it into a sectional, an L-shape, a bed for guests, or even a cool playground for those cushion forts for the kids. Don’t worry about it sliding around if you sit on a seam, cause it uses some hefty clamps to hold everything together.

]]>A change in scenery, adding pops of color, and other amazing visual effects to your videos or photos do not have to be confined to a specific location. With this handy gear, you can set up a studio anywhere be it at home, in your room, on the road, and make it look like you’re somewhere else.
The DropKey Pop-Up Studio is basically a professional green screen setup that you can inflate for use. It then deflates and packs down small in its heavy-duty travel bag. When it comes to preparation, it only takes a minute to inflate and a total of 10 minutes for the overall setup of its built-in parts.
It comes with LED lighting (4 x 25w LED flicker-free panel lights and dual tube lights 2 x 12w for matte lighting). It has wireless lighting control via the DropKey mobile app for the camera display screen. The app also lets you edit audio and video. The package even comes with a controller box equipped with two headphone jacks and two wired lavalier microphones.
Moreover, the DropKey Pop-Up Studio supports wireless VR sensors. They can hang from the forward ceiling of the airframe for smooth movement. It provides access to Mediabook.tv so you can choose locations or backgrounds to make professional and high-quality content.
This office and home gear comes in either blue or green screen and fits any standard room with 8″ ceilings and a 6″ ceiling lamp. It measures 9″ wide and 7′-4″ high by 5″ deep when fully inflated.

]]>“We are tremendously excited to announce Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous today. With our new game, we are taking everything that made Kingmaker enjoyable and building on top of it. We laid a solid foundation and are going to push the boundaries of the CRPG genre with our next title,” says Oleg Shpilchevskiy, Head of Owlcat Games studio. “We especially want to thank the Kingmaker community for their support because we would not be making this game if it weren’t for them. When Wrath of the Righteous is ready, we cannot wait to see them answer the call again.”
Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous is based on the Wrath of the Righteous Adventure Path from the tabletop game but includes new characters, plots, and elements to entertain even players already familiar with the adventure. It tells the story of a large-scale conflict between mortals and demons where players are invited to immerse themselves in a world under siege from demonic forces. As a vicious invasion threatens the world, the consequences of one’s decisions will forge a unique narrative of their personal battle between good and evil.
Kingmaker’s Creative Director Alexander Mishulin and Lead Writer Alexander Komzolov return to their respective roles, and Owlcat is happy to confirm that Chris Avellone is back on board lending a hand and supporting the narrative team as he did with Pathfinder: Kingmaker.
To stand against the demonic invasion, the player character and their companions will receive additional powers from the player’s chosen mythic path. These paths vary widely in nature and profoundly impact the storyline of the game, permanently changing the characters and the world around them. Players may choose the path of the immortal lich, wielding powerful spells and commanding an army of undead; the path of the trickster, causing mischief and finding fun even in the middle of the demon-filled abyss; the path of the angel, summoning celestial allies into battle and meting bolts of divine judgment upon foes; or something else entirely.
Some Pathfinder RPG character classes that didn’t make it into Kingmaker will make their CRPG debut in Wrath of the Righteous alongside the returning roster, including — but not limited to — the fan-favorite witch and oracle. More classes and character options will be revealed in the near future.
Boasting an improved visual style, Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous will offer a look and feel distinct from that of Pathfinder: Kingmaker. Set in locations including a demon-infested wasteland, besieged crusader cities, and the foul, twisted Abyss itself, Wrath of the Righteous’s art will capture the epic fight of the world’s defenders as they struggle to hold the line against the corrupting force of otherworldly entities.
