Slavedriver - A Classic RTS on Kickstarter
Hey guys, my friends have been working on this RTS for the last few years; I am helping on it with the sprites and soundtrackl
Their goal is $15,000.... They have 43 days... These dudes grew up playing the same Apogee games that we did, and I feel they're keeping the spirit alive. Pledge what you can.
Thanks.

Am I the only one immediately thinking of Z?
Anyway the graphics still have it's flaws, yes, style consistency is not the strongest point in the game. The best thing to me seems to be the multi battles at once idea. Not the old one battle after another.
The 15,000 $ is a ridiculously low amount, 5K inhouse development cost is a joke and won't buy the devs bread for much more than a month, so I don't know how you want to go until Oct 2015 with so little money.
Other than that the project is interesting, I hope it succeeds.

Not sure if I'd back this since RTS games are not my cup of tea (to me they feel like combining the worst elements of Chess and so-called "tycoon" games - in short it's a lot of waiting around for something to happen, needing to grind for more money to get something interesting, and then feeling stupid for getting your butt kicked).
I'm only tempted by the promise of a free digital download for $5, so I'd at least be getting what I paid for if it gets finished.
