Lodestar - Kickstarter with great sounding idea

[Tinkerbell]

I just quote the setting part:
------------
The game is set in the distant future on a planet residing within a rare type of cataclysmic variable star system. The Lodestar Universe is set in a universe much older than our own. LSS falls loosely into the category of hard science fiction, and includes xeno-drones, re-purposed quasi humans, adaptive sub-quantum xenobiological nanotechnology, genocidal paraterraforming, and quantum mass weapons.
------------

This should probably be considered a very experimental thing, but what I read so far sounds great and also the updates show a very original mind. I'd really love to see that this guy gets a go... pledged 32$ myself. Check it out, please.

Two updates, so far, have revealed detail of a very rich, engaging plotline. The guy only needs another ~$14K in a couple of weeks on this extremely promising project... it would be crying shame if it were to fall short.

[Tinkerbell]

Yes it would be, the intriguing story so far is reason enough to pledge. Also its only 2^16 $, so we basically just need 1000 people pledging.... I dont know why this does not take off , however I guess too little publicity.

It probably hasn't taken off because it's initial release is Linux. I assume people that only use windows and macs are not thrilled.

[Tinkerbell]

Yeah,

I hoped that, considering that Linux users always pay a lot for the Humble Bundles, there would be more interest from linux using people. Probably still not enough gaming people there. A pity. I hope there might be some way for the creator to still make his vision live.
