You guys know about this, right? What do you think?

Looks like they are going to do multiplayer for sure, but they're making the single-player campaign first.

There is quite a discussion going on about Overload on the Descent Kahn/Kali Facebook page, but I'm glad you brought it up here, Seawyrm, in case there is anyone on here that is not on there.. (yeah, I think I got that right.)

This project looks very cool, and I have backed it. I upped my pledge when they announced that Multiplayer WILL follow several months after the SP campaign is finished.
I have more faith in this project than in Descent Underground; what more could we ask for than for some of the original Descent 1 creators coming together again to make another great 6dof experience? They don't have the name, but it looks like they've got the game!

I definitely hope this gets funded.

Lady Silver who isn't in any of the Descent Facebook groups talking about people who aren't in the Facebook groups. I believe this is literally 'the pot calling the kettle black' lol

Overload, I like the art style. This is very rare for me. I'm curious to see what their multiplayer ends up being like.

Seems unlikely that it'll get funded at this point, though. Alas!

Too early to tell. Most projects have a big push toward the end!

That's encouraging!
I knew Kickstarter projects tend to get a push towards the end, but I figured for this one it would be too little, too late.

One of the key points is that anyone who clicked on "remind me" will get an e-mail with 48 hours remaining. They'll go to the page and see it at hopefully 60% or more, and with a playable teaser-demo, and will back. And momentum will carry it through, hopefully.

Share with your friends and family.
