Starstorm kickstarter update

The Starstorm expansion pack kickstarter campaign reached the $147K mark with 20 days left for the end of the crowdfunding campaign. Ronimo's staff member Ralph also gave an update on the official forums about the delays on allowing Paypal donations:

"We're trying to set up a very neat and structured Paypal system that eventually will be better for you guys and less of a jumble for us. It's proving a bit more work then expected though so it might take a few more days.
That said, when it launches I'll let a seperate blue droppod fall (you can already see it prepped for launch in the progress screen) that marks the Paypal donations added to the Kickstarter funds so we can see where we're at stretch goal wise.
We want Paypal just as much as you guys but we think we found a better way to implement it at the last minute and it's worth waiting for if it works out"
