Wowowowowowowowowowowowow!!!!!

Okay I wish I would have seen this sooner. I would have dropped some money in their laps as well.

It looks absolutely amazing.

edit: oh it is still going! I might still donate even though its already passed the goal.

 

[Glass Rebel]

Ah so this actually reached its Kickstarter target, very nice. They still might make the Mac/Linux tier but the next goal might be a bit of a stretch (heh.) so I can safely ignore it until it releases

 

[Atomski]

Whoa this looks cool. Nice to see its funded and such .

Awesome.

I understand that and yes you're right but there are cases like this one where funding was limited from the get go. I can understand if their intentions were to use Kickstarter from the start however it doesn't seem like it was here.

For a project like this I honestly don't see where they could have landed a backer especially due to the PC being their lead platform and honestly I respect them on what they've done so far. They aren't saying "Give us money or it won't be released", instead they are asking for help to give the game a longer development cycle. Let' be honest there, do really think most companies would allow this vs rushing the title out only to be fixed via patches? We've got way to many games being released like this.

And going back to the Kickstarter issue, again they are asking. I sincerely doubt the title would be scrapped even if they don' reach their limit but it seems that Kickstarter is the easiest option and due to the reception that the game has gotten so far over the past year it's likely given they know that this will get funded due to fans of both the genre and title.

Yeah I don't see this as a problem at all.
I honestly see it as a good sign that they came out and said they needed more time and money as it shows they are dedicated to finishing the game in the best state possible.

As others have pointed out most studios would not have the balls to admit the game is half-finished because they need to protect their brand image and that is why we get rushed releases like the ZOE HD collection which needed more time in the oven for sure.

This developer diary about the soundtrack is really worth watching.

I didn't even pay attention to the music for this game (and didn't expect much) but it sounds amazing.

 

[ZoddGutts]

They added a paypal link as well to donate.

I will support this, I honestly shouldn't count how much I have put towards kickstarting stuff this year, would probably make me sick.

 

[The End]

Just kind of stumbled on this randomly today.

It's like someone though "your two favorite games are Freespace 2 and Zone of the Enders 2, so we made this for you"

Sadly, with the holidays money is tight so I can only afford the $20 level, but still. I'm happy to spread the word any way I can.

Are you me? hehehe

The kickstarter is ending in 5 hours.

Unfortunately, it looks like it's going to miss the MAC/Linux goals

 

[Babalu.]

was looking at the kickstarter and comteplating whether to pledge or not. For $20 i was probably not going to.

But i refreshed a few times and someone from the $15 (1000 limit) backed out so I impulsively pledges $15.

Thanks whoever backed out and I can't wait.

 

[RatDog]

4 hours left!

Anyone interested in this game should go to the link and throw 20 bucks at these guys. Looks like the money is in good hands from what I know

 

[Enron]

Poor mac users. They are going to be JUST short.

 

[Tokubetsu]

Welp it's over and they got my $70. Looking forward to this one! Especially with the tentative release date so close.
