Some devs are trying to beat 22cans...

That is insane. Valve and Kickstarter need to put a stop to this. It really does make GODUS look good by comparison.

I checked out the kickstarter page and there are 3 people who backed it for $720.

Its actually their second kickstarter campaign.().

They promise:

• A POST-APOCALYPTIC ATMOSPHERE, developed with a focus on sci-fi realism and more locations to explore than Fallout 1 and 2 combined (for more info, check out our concept arts and screenshots, and watch for updates here on KickStarter).

• A NONLINEAR STORY, with the freedom to choose between a ton of branches and endings which influence the whole setting - even beyond the game you play.

• HARDCORE MECHANICS in the best traditions of D&D and SPECIAL, we have created our own system called SACPIC (for more info, check that section of the forum and coming updates), where you will be able to customize every aspect of your character. Of course, you’ll also be able to choose from a list of pre-made ones if you just want to jump in and play!

Crowd funding will die if people like this are allowed to manipulate the system. Crowd funding thrives off trust, once people stop trusting each other the whole system will fail. Either Valve and Kickstarter take steps to prevent exploitation or their golden goose will stop laying eggs.
