Hi all,

I just stumbled across this kickstarter-project and I must say it looks great to me!
I've really enjoyed GameDev-story and was wondering what you guys think of this project.
Anyone pledged?

Kickstarter has been getting a lot of heat lately, for better or for worse. I personally disregard anything related to MMOs, F2P, or mobile gaming.

PC strategy games should be fine though? :)

When I saw the thread title, I got excited....until I found out that it has nothing to do with Star Command: Revolution.

It's going to be a PC version of a mobile title, right? If so then it's a no in my book.

This is worth a read for interested backers:

It's a PC version of what's said to be a genius strategy title. You can't write off every game that comes out on mobile first just because that's where the devs wanted their game.

yeah we can. dont get me wrong, i like the concept and will most likely back it, but
i don't want to legitamise (sorry spelling!) iOS or Android as a gaming platform ;).
Big gap between $25 - $75 tiers. $50 is a lot for a t-shirt.....
