I had totally missed it, so I had to watch the trailer again. That's not a bad thing, right? :)

Though, in reference to an earlier comment, I do have to note with some dismay a great lack of death rolls in that trailer... :P

ADDENDUM: Just pledged $35 to the Kickstarter. Let's just say the new trailer won me over. :)

Wow!  It looks like there's only about $50,000 to go until the project is funded!

If you think you might want this game, now's the time to back it!

It's about $14,000 now. If I had money, I would. I'm too far behind on bills though. Hope it gets to $600,000+

Nice. Grats to Descendant Studios. I kicked in with less than 2 hours to go.

what happened to the amount? I'm new to this stuff. I saw it at $602,000 or so, and now it's only 600,000 something.


update: They did it. CONGRATS AGAIN!!!. I decided to pledge the cheapest amount, nothing to brag about. But I guess I can say I was part of it.

Just think guys, for the first time in sixteen years, we can safely say there's a new Descent game oncoming.  ;D

I think you musta missed this:

Nice promo I like how you used the design theme of the old promo for D3. I wonder, though, why did you use 'prepare for war' instead of Prepare For Descent'?

Not sure.  Maybe to stress the larger number of players in the biggest multiplayer options?

I saw the video at the same time as everyone else, so I don't know.

If you're referring to Sol Contingency, don't worry, we're coming through and we *do* have the Descent feel for sure. The flight mechanics feel identical, but we'll have a closed beta soon to dial everything in.
