Oh my god, this needs to happen. Throwing $100 their way when I get paid next.

They're at $170k and it's been open for a few hours! I think this is a good indication of how much everybody wants this game to be made.

There are a couple of new interviews by Jon Mavor out today, one at Shacknews and a 40 minute video interview w/ TotalBiscuit:

Nothing too exciting is revealed, but they do mention they are getting close to revealing some more of the stretch goals. The video has some good discussion about the client-server multiplayer as well as their emphasis on more unit types over faction differentiation.

The Kickstarter has just over 50k left to go, in large part because two more people have pledged at the $10,000 level in the last 48 hours.

vv By just having a competent graphics engine PA will be far better than TA Spring.

That guy needs to learn to turn his loving phone off!

I love how they're saying they just want to get the game out ASAP rather than fannying around. The sooner I'm playing this, the better.

A second faction would be nice but when you think about it logically it basically means they have to do double the art assets for a second team that has to do basically the same thing. Provided they make the units diverse and interesting enough so that every game isn't "mash big block of robot type a into enemy block or robot type a"

I don't care about having a second faction with unique units, I think it'd just be cool to sell DLC reskins / remodels of current units and have them retain the same attributes but with different looks.
