It was KickStarted a couple years ago seeking $18,000 to finish off funding for the game, having already had $135k pumped into its development privately.
The KickStarter took off, careening past that figure with the game eventually receiving just a shade under $40,000 from 1,604 backers.
There was a single stretch goal adding additional content into the game, but it was not met as it required a $50,000 pledge.
Since then, it has been made available on both Steam and Xbox One for $9.99. This game was given away on Xbox One through Games with Gold.

Volgarr the Viking also has numerous accolades to its credit, including having taken home Indie Game Magazine's 2013 Best Gameplay award and being named IndieLucahador's Game of the Year.
Here's the game's launch trailer;
Just slightly over one month ago in early October, Kris Durrschmidt responded to a fan of the game asking if the game would ever make its way to the PlayStation Vita.
As you can see, he said it depended on whether or not it could be afforded.
It seems like the game may have the funding to move onto a new console as. as of this morning, the developer has said that they'll bring Volgarr the Viking to any console that provides a sufficient demand.
How much is sufficient demand? I don't know, but I've reached out to see if a number can be attached to the statement for a bit more clarity.

.@WCCase nothing concrete, we would love to bring Volgarr and our other games in development to Vita if/when we can afford to do so.

@Dokioo we will bring it wherever there is sufficient demand. Sound off.

Not really. It looks like some Game Maker homebrew project. Would rather have Rastan or Odallus.
