Looks really cool. I'll have to read more into it sometime.

loving the detail of destruction in this. seems like a really neat game, hope to see it reach its funding goal.

This looks pretty dang beautiful. It's like some of the late Snes games on steroids.

this is AWESOME

Just backed it, looks [I]fucking[/I] [I]incredible[/I]. Hoping they succeed, but given what they've shown us, I am sure they will :v:

Looks pretty cool. Like Bioshock meets The Chaos Engine.
