"Let’s face it, we’ve all secretly wished the zombie apocalypse would happen. Unfortunately, we haven’t had a scientific breakthrough in reanimating dead human corpses, so we will have to wait a little longer for that day to come. In the mean time, The Dead Linger is the closest thing you can get to the real zombie apocalypse." - Dustin Triplett of Geekenstein.com

Well, Kickstarter is still a gamble. Not everything is gonna make it. Probably too ambitious of a project fro the builders. I think Zombies are on the downturn too... FINALLY!!! Sorry, I'm really sick of zombies.
Even more than that when you consider that it was on Early Access for quite a while, so they also got money from that channel as well.
