Elite: Dangerous on Kickstarter

Post by Ixnatifual »

I don't know if anyone else here used to enjoy the old Elite space sim games, but if you're interested, David Braben, one of the two original creators, is trying to launch a sequel via Kickstarter.

What a fantastic find. I bet that will be awesome.

It's a shame they have sold out of the £20 & get the game tier. £30 is a bit of a push pre-Xmas, but would easily have dropped £20 I think.

It's passed the £1,250,000 mark, so the game is going to be made! I hope it turns out great. Star Citizen and Elite together I hope will bring back the space sim genre for real.

Hopefully Grimrock will do the same for the dungeon crawler.
