rewrote about 70% of the game to make it more focused on the interactions with Joel. Originally, the game would have ended with the player witnessing a machine with numerous levers that could be pulled, giving the player some sense of control, but when they examined the machine's internals, would realize that all of the levers were disconnected, and that they had no control of the situation. Following Joel's death, they felt this scene was no longer applicable, and replaced it with the players interacting a final time with Joel in a cathedral in an afterlife-type setting as to bring closure to their story. With the change, Ryan hoped that the game would help people to cope and open up with others about the loss of loved ones. One design decision made was to represent the characters in the game with blank faces. Ryan stated that this was both that being a small team they did not have the technical capability to fully program and animate the character's faces, and that by leaving the faces featureless, it would help players engage by imagining themselves in the place of the game's characters. In November 2014 with the Ouya and other investment funding running out, Ryan Green announced that to have the widest impact for their game, they had opted to forgo the Ouya exclusivity, and in association with Ouya, launched a Kickstarter campaign with the goal to have simultaneous release of the Ouya version alongside versions for Windows and Mac OS X. The campaign was designed to raise sufficient funds, $85,000, to avoid pushing back the title from the planned mid-2015 release, and would be aided, if its goal were met, by personal loans and funding from the Indie Fund. The Kickstarter was successful, raising more than $100,000 from nearly 3,700 backers, and through it, several funders shared with the Greens their own photos and stories of their losses of their children at young ages due to incurable or inoperable maladies, which would be included within the game. The game was released on January 12, 2016, coinciding with what would have been Joel's seventh birthday. The Greens encouraged supporters to enjoy pancakes for dinner on the day of release, as it was Joel's favorite food. Razer Inc., which acquired the Ouya platform and properties in 2015, stated that all revenue from sales of That Dragon, Cancer on Ouya would be donated
