Sounds Rather manly.

Gas Giants close to being added. New 1.8M stretch goal announced: Galactic War, a single/co-op proceduraly generated metagame.

Currently at 1.7M, final 2 stretch goals announced: Full orchestral score at 2.0M and making of documentary at 2.1M

1,7 million?! Holy cow, people wants that game bad.

Can we see what's the bare minimum to complete the game?

Goal was 900,000

I don't want to sounds like an opportunist, but if the creators are reading this, know that I am completely cool with taking that 800 000 away from you. I understand the frustration of receiving too much money.

Love,

PS, your game looks sweet so far I guess.

PPS, seriously, think about my offer.

You would deny us Galactic War? FIEND!

Now, if only this game would become available on Steam...

^ Consider that Uber already have some games on Steam, it's likely...proabably more likely closer to finish date...

1.8 million reached!

GALACTIC WARS ARE GO!

You know what this game is going to remind me of?

Metal Fatigue. I loved that game so much, but I have never seen it outside of a copy I purchased at best buy sometime before Highschool.

EDIT: For those who've never played it, it involved giant robots which you can customize, as well as combat Underground, on the surface, and in orbit, and each has its own positives and pitfalls.

Boy, they seriously reached 2 million? This is insane, those people really wanted their game.

I don't think I'm sold just yet on that game. I have a headach when I play Sins Of A Solar Empire for too long, and I rarely get to fight on several fronts at once.

Dang, at this rate we are getting that documentary O_o

And we just did.

You guys sure love concept of this game Seems like Kickstarter is totally still viable thing.

At least until the OUYA inevitably goes bust.

Eh, some kickstarter games are already available and are good, besides Oya isn't necessary sucky, just not successful Plus its game console, not game.

My main fear is that the OUYA fails to deliver, leaving several thousand people in the lurch, this turns into a publicity shitstorm and causes trust in Kickstarter (because despite whatever it says on their Terms of Service, they will be blamed as well) to plummet.

But that's something for the OUYA thread.

Eh, there is that watch thing that got far more than any game ever got :P You can check from wikipedia, but I think it was 10 million....

Reviving this topic so that I could be reminded of it at a later time. I'm so getting this when it comes out.

New Biomes chart.

I'm in love with the simple, angular style of that game.
