Three points:
1. $10 - $200 is a big jump. I would consider brainstorming some other rewards you can offer between those tiers and make use of early bird tiers.
2. You have very large blocks of text and would break those up with headlines. See:
http://www.crowdcrux.com/copywriting-ti ... ter-pitch/3. Typically, I see about 20-30% of funds coming from the creator's social network (direct messaging), which is required to jumpstart the campaign. I'd recommend thinking of ways you can engage your local network first.

thanks man I actually took your advice and must admit, the project looks much cleaner and the extra reward offers actually opened up my creativity to give back to backers in some special ways. thanks for the advice!
Best regards,
Jameson

On ours we posted many pictures on the story page. Instead of typing the headlines we put in hand drawn images. It really helps the aesthetic of it. Best wishes to you!
