DO NOT PLEDGE!

As a developer myself I'd highly recommend running away from this kickstarter as the video doesn't show any models, no in game scenes, no UI designs and basically I couldn't find anything started aside from the video & a quick map graphic.

It definitely leaves a lot to the imagination, but that being said I'm still backing it.

The story is interesting and seems pretty fleshed out, plus I imagine you can't get much further than the previz stage on a project of this scope when funding out-of-pocket.

Only signed up at the $20 level, but may increase for other rewards if they provide more details in the updates.

I'll agree that lacking models or in-game content, it's pretty unlikely they've made any headway at all into this thing, but isn't that the point of the Kickstarter?

Take a look at the Creative Team and check out their pedigree. In my opinion, it looks like they might just have the talent they need to get this thing off the ground.
